FINALLY!!!
using an arduino micro, I can read data from the #transputer and send data to it!

I just have released the schematics and PCB of my transputer board, along an article describing the process. Enjoy it! #retro #transputer #ibmpc #dos https://nanochess.org/transputer_board.html
Just wondering if I should start a dedicated #inmos #transputer discord server?
Would anyone join?
At the start of April, I bought two transputer boards for 25$ each on eBay. I've been building an ISA board to test Today, after destroying two 74LS08, solving three disconected wires, and adding a decoupling capacitor, it finally says "nano"

Ha, and i've a Computer with lots of computing performance where isn't any #doom port!
The power of my system is more than 5 times of a good 368 system!!!!
But what kind of system i've .. ?
It is a #Atari #atw800 #transputer system with 5 inmos T800 chips ...

If you read my article about my Pascal compiler for transputer, my Small-C compiler and early operating system, then hold on to your chair: I just have wrote about my full operating system and K&R C compiler for transputer #retro #transputer https://nanochess.org/transputer_operating_system.html
Very rare Atari ATW800 Transputer Workstation on sale in France #atari #transputer
Once upon a time in 1993 I was a teen, and I wrote a Pascal compiler for transputer. I was learning so many things. I've wrote an article about it, and released the code, along a newly coded transputer emulator #retro #transputer https://nanochess.org/pascal.html
I read this today - https://notgull.net/announcing-dozer/ - peered into the rabbit hole that is bootstrapping, and considered my #Transputer tool chain, whose assembler is written in Scala and C compiler being written in Rust… it’s going to be hard to bootstrap.
Atari Transputer Workstation (ATW800) revives in #AtariST computers (Mega ST, Mega STe and TT) thanks to upcoming ATW800/2 board. Video: https://youtu.be/tEI-pnZtq3M Info: https://geekdot.com/atw800_2/ #atari #retrocomputing #transputer
@Shaos @philpem My vintage computing bookshelf holds some German Transputer titles. No chip, though #transputer #vintagecomputing
@philpem I'm collecting books about those #transputer beasts since my Soviet student times (see 2 books in Russian on top) and recently I was able to acquire actual transputer chip :)
Gah. Someone's offered me what looks like an OK price on some #Transputer chips and I want them but .. I don't know if I'll do anything useful with them?
A solid morning's progress on #Transputer #Forth - it now displays the first part of the cold boot message 'eForth v' and then crashes before displaying the version number. More squinting at the emulator output required, but that's a task for another session.
New blog post on my investigation into choosing an #FPGA for Parachute (my #transputer project), study notes, and getting started with the #IceStorm / #APIO open source toolchains. So much to learn! :)
