etc-nand

Overview

etc-nand is a real-world ETC.A CPU built from almost only quad NAND gate ICs (74hc00)

It will probably be finished in a few months.

Estimates

Estimated gate count:

2800 NAND gates
320 tristate buffers

Estimated component counts:

700x 74hc00 quad NAND gates
40x 74HC54 octal tristate buffers
a few simple resistors

Planned Specifications

ETC.A base instruction set + byte operations + S&F + Von Neumann

The CPU will communicate with peripherals over a 16 bit data + 15 bit address memory bus

Purchase

You will be able to purchase one in the future.

Stay tuned!
