My breadboard computer based on Ben Eater’s amazing build and tutorial. Seriously, those tutorials are awesome, I binged them first and then I could build this thing without looking back at them. Above my computer is generating the Fibonacci sequence.

Although this computer is very much based on Ben’s there are some differences:

  • Mine doesn’t have the JC or JNC instructions, it doesn’t have a output register and it doesn’t have a proper RAM chip but instead uses a Arduino (I busted my chip)
  • Some parts differ since I didn’t buy the kit (I live in Europe)
  • My computer has 256 bytes of RAM and 256 bytes of program memory
  • My computer uses 8 bit op codes
