OPD: Computer One floppy interface recreation.

Post by stephen_usher »

Over the last week or so I've been using the information on the RWAP web pages to reverse engineer the Computer One floppy disk interface for the One Per Desk/Tonto.

I've now got a schematic from tracing all the traces on the PCB print outs and have created a Mk.I PCB design and sent it off to be manufactured. The PCBs arrive on Friday and I have all the chips...

I thought that the ROM image was on the RWAP site but... bother!

Does anyone know where I can get a copy of the ROM image?

The project is rather dead in the water without it.

Thanks to various people in the community, Stephen has gone on to get a working clone of the Computer One Disk Interface for the ICL OPD.
