39C3 - When 8 Bits is Overkill: Making Blinkenlights with a 1-bit CPU
Over the last half year I have explored the Motorola mc14500 - a CPU with a true one-bit architecture - and made it simulate Conway's Game of Life. This talk gives a look into how implementing a design for such a simplistic CPU can work, and how it's possible to address 256 LEDs and half a kiloword of memory with just four bits of address space. girst (Tobi) https://events.ccc.de/congress/2025/h... #39c3 #Hardware Licensed to the public under http://creativecommons.org/licenses/b...
