Raspberry Pi based 1541 emulator
FTA:
Pi1541 is a real-time, cycle exact, Commodore 1541 disk drive emulator that can run on a Raspberry Pi 3B (or 3B+). The software is free and I have endeavored to make the hardware as simple and inexpensive as possible.
Pi1541 provides you with an SD card solution for using D64, G64, NIB and NBZ Commodore disk images on real Commodore 8 bit computers such as;-
Commodore 64
Commodore 128
Commodore Vic20
Commodore 16
Commodore Plus4

"Source code will be published soon." - here's hoping!
ReplyDeleteEd S yup, me too. Most likely he wants to clean it up a bit before releasing it. You know how it can go when you're hacking something together and the code gets a little....sloppy.
ReplyDeleteMeanwhile, I'm pretty excited about this thing. I already on both an SD2IEC and a 1541 Ultimate II and I can say there's plenty of room between the two for another product. The former lacking compatibility the latter being expensive and hard to get.
The boards for the #pi1541 are up on OSHPARK https://oshpark.com/profiles/DL2DW

ReplyDeleteCan't wait to have a look at the source and see if it can be used for the PET.

ReplyDeleteI'm guessing you'd have to do a lot of work to convert the I/O from serial to IEE-488.
Christopher Gaul from what I can remember you can read from 1541 but not write.
