Very clever love your coding even though it goes over my head. Your very talented at coding keep up the good work. Soon we will see you running a 3d print from a c64 😅

Thank You, Neil :) 3d printer, hm, yes it's should be possible, it's just a gcode (ascii), thanks for an idea :)

"Cool" little project, it's great to see how a machine like a C64 which was just a games machine to me all those years back is capable of so much more (in the hands of someone who knows what they are doing). Thanks for giving me another glimpse into assembly and showing how it can glue the c64 and temp probe together.

Glad you enjoyed it Peter :) I agree with you, it is interesting to make a 40 year old computer communicate with a new device like this little temp probe. Cheers!

Modern technology for an old Commodore is great! In the old days I guess there were similar projects with a thermistor as a temperature measuring device. :-D

Yes, usually thermistor was used to measure voltage and then convert that to temperature. Thank You for watching :) Cheers!

It's great to see one of the retro channels delving into User Port use, Josip!

Hey thanks, I highly appreciate it! There is so much more to develop/explore with c64 user port :) Cheers!

Again, superb job josip, very nice bit of asm getting the sensor to work on a c64

Excellent work, Josip! I've been hoping for content on use of the C64 User Port for a few years now . . . the entry for $DD00 and $DD01 in the venerable "Mapping the Commodore 64" runs a few pages, so there's a lot being controlled in CIA #2 by those registers (including the RS-232 implementation, which would make for some fascinating exploration).

@JosipRetroBits

11 ай бұрын

Thank You, Yes there is so much more to explore on CIA #2, but also RS-232 is controlled by the CPU and it's not proper RS-232, it's TTL which is actually more suited for today's devices, 0 to 5V; no negative voltages, works fine except for speed. Cheers!

Thumbs up

Hey bud. Sorry this has nothing to do with the video. I will watch. But I'm guessing that it was u on yarcs live stream? That had an issue with the cartridge port on the shortboard? If so just wanted to let you know that the cardboard trick worked to get basic screen. Damn 😮. Thank you . Thank you.

Awesome .. That's why we make these videos to help the community .. I use a old credit card or any plastic card like that and a cloth with isopropyl alcohol .. it always seems to clean up well .if not use dioxide instead or ipa. 😉

Great. Thank you again. I had this one on the back burner for a while. Changed a few chips and was so tempted to change the super pla, but I was so nervous with that one 😬. In my head, I said.. can't be. Diag with harness runs perfect 10 times + just black screen with no cartridge. Fastload booted perfect to basic even. My first thought was the kernal basic rom... I tried two. No change. Damn cartridge port shorting! Wow 👌:)

Hi, glad that Your C64 is working again :) ...and thanks to @8BitRetroReFix for jumping in :) Cheers!

I was wondering if anyone had figured it out. new vic. to c64. on the basis of. so that the 256 bytes of the area are mirrored. basic registers. more sprites could be made. or other things. without compromising the basic design of the vic. Regards..

There are some modern replacements for VIC II chip. In most cases, they are focused on better video display quality, I'm not sure about expanding capabilities of sprites and other VIC II registers, but Yes that would be nice :) Thank You for watching :) Cheers!
