Usagi Electric | Playing a Game on a MC14500 1-bit Single Board Computer! @UsagiElectric | Uploaded February 2023 | Updated October 2024, 1 day ago.
Once upon a time, I built up a 1-bit computer on a breadboard based around the Motorola MC14500 1-bit Industrial Control Unit microprocessor (link below to that playlist). It was epic and I loved it, but I also loved having my breadboard to do prototyping on. So, I tore it down after filming and used my breadboard for other things. Well, I’ve been missing that little computer, so it’s time to build it back up again, but this time, on a PCB from my friends at PCBWay!
