PapaB:
I did PDP8 thru VAX (big ones)... And punched in the code from the front panel switches in the beginning (not a card reader, somehow I never played with one).. I met Ken Olsen a couple times too..
Electro-World:
I think the forum are under attack, since the talk of the new format. heh-heh.. I say no location in profile, no account. popup that states "PLEASE STRESS DETAILS IN YOUR QUESTIONS" (ok I lack there).
If you are new and leave the "new to elections, have a question group" with under 10 post, anyone with 100+ post can nuke them... Kidding..
OK, you can get a pic and pulse all the lines to read an external memory chip.
Make is a static RAM chip, less work. And get the byte and drop it in the PIC RAM..
So what class are you taking??
Do you mean read 10 8-bit bytes from pic EEPROM and store them in RAM?? I am with Nigel, WHAT?
And if I hear byte, I think 8 bits today. Word is 16, or 32-bit word means 32 bits, etc.. Nibble, don't use them, I use bits, 4 of them..
