    Here I present you the PHX1960 computer, newest developement from PHX INC.:

    It consists of two blocks - the memory controller & code editor (for entering code), and the CPU itself (execution block).
    Execution panel shows state of both registers and output registers (not implemented in here though).
    Editor shows current opcode and param (edited or executed), and edit address, etc.

    Technical parameters:
    Speed: 2 operations per second
    Memory: 128KB
    Registers: Two registers
    Opcodes: 5 opcodes

    5 opcodes are:
    Code:
    ADD A,B+N;
    ADD B,A+B;
    MOV A,N;
    MOV B,N;
    JMP N;
    where N is some number, A and B are registers.

    Screenshot from rear:

    In front - memory controller & memory, editor circuits.

    CPU close-up:


    CPU is made out of around 40 gates, no expression gates or CPU's.

    Save on demand.

    Let me tell you guys, this is cooler than it would seem since it is ONLY made up of arthimetric gates, comparison gates, logic gates and memory latches.

    Cant wait until you remake it so it's faster and works 100% of the time!
    It was a great experince to see it being built from ground up, and the "cock" chip is just so... Cocky!

    I've actually thought of trying to do similar myself, but I'd probably end up stumbling my way through its construction without a background in system engineering.

    Nah, you just need to know what you are doing and how it should work.

    Things look cooler when they use circa 1950's tech.
