Re: Help with Homemade ZX80-81- HIRES problem
Hi Pokemon Yes.. it is identical to z80 schematics plus NMI slow circuit... i mean.. i tried to soldered identical. (now the difference is A14 on pin 5 and controll pins on 16k expansion) I will double check the D6 and the pull up resistor. If you have another suggestion, hardware or software, to te...

Re: Help with Homemade ZX80-81- HIRES problem
16K Ram
Using MREQ and A14 the vertical lines are there all the time ,for text and low res games.. and disapear with HIRES
Using A14 only on pin 5 , low and hi-res works perfectly

Re: Help with Homemade ZX80-81- HIRES problem
Yes .. good news.. now is working fine.
Thank you all ..
Probably on zx80 Sinclair didn´t considered the future HIRES applications
On the zx81 ULA ,maybe, the "equivalent" internal circuit , pin 5 is conected to A14?
By the way.. do you have the ULA ZX81 schematics?

Re: Help with Homemade ZX80-81- HIRES problem
Hi Siggi Good News!! Your idea worked very well. Perfect! (Connecting pin 5 to A14 ) Even using the old 62256 sram,, 27c64 or 28c64 ,74LS or 74HC.. ALL combinations worked I will do more tests.. but i think it solved the problem.. take a look at the pictures (from tv grabber) attached Thanks a LOT !...

Re: Help with Homemade ZX80-81- HIRES problem
Hi Siggi Excellent Idea.. i will test today. Actually is not a zx80 anymore .. because it has a NMI generator upgrade and the zx81 rom 8k. http://searle.hostei.com/grant/zx80/zx80nmi.html So , in "theory" is a zx81 .. that is why i am trying to solve this.. I want a 100% compatible clone. (if possib...

Re: Help with Homemade ZX80-81- HIRES problem
Hi Siggi. Yes, probably during low refresh period the ROM add some data on data bus. I am planning to add some additional logic .. to disable the ROM or add some delay, during refresh period. (just to understand better the problem) Some idea about which signals needed to disable ROM in the right tim...
