ORIC SDCARD
Re: ORIC SDCARD
Thanks, very interesting indeed. Classic scheme - clear and well designed - no doubt it will work stable.
Actually it's very close to the scheme I used for OricExos slaves to enable RAM Overlay (which works nice too!) .
In the doc file is written about using MAP signal to disable internal RAM (#0000..#C000),
this information can be found in other sources, but my question is:
Does anyone know about a real existing device which adds external RAM to Oric-1/Atmos ?

Re: ORIC SDCARD
I really want to make one of these ORIC SDCARD projects - anyone else interested? I think we can (affordably) do a small production run of PCB's if we get enough interest ..
Re: ORIC SDCARD
I would be in. But as stated before, there are some differences between the schematics and the board. So for routing purpose it should be better to wire them correctly. I will have a look at it by the end of the week (I have a sdlep to solder for my Acorn Electron and Matra Alice before ).

Re: ORIC SDCARD
Would be good to get this sorted out - I'll commit to at least 5 of these boards, out of the batch .. and am willing to finance more if there is interest and we might get them distributed, over time, to other Oric users.
Re: ORIC SDCARD
I also would be in.
I intend to make a dirty one for tests but it will be great to get a nice card.

Re: ORIC SDCARD
I have ordered the parts to make one for testing
Re: ORIC SDCARD
Thanks to Edl42 !
I've modified a little bit the code and the schematics to use a 1602 I2C LCD (only 2 pins for the Nano : A4 and A5).
I am just waiting for a SD card reader module and soon, I will made a 'dirty" copy of it.
Will report whatever is the result.

Re: ORIC SDCARD
Hehe still waiting for the parts here to finish mine. Hope to get them soon...
Re: ORIC SDCARD
Je teste actuellement une lecture du répertoire racine d'une carte SD avec des portes logiques et un EPROM 64k. Le projet n'est pas terminé...
Re: ORIC SDCARD
I finally made a dirty version of the ORIC SDCARD and that's working pretty well...
Have a look here :

Re: ORIC SDCARD
This is really beautiful. Only thing I wonder is if its going to be possible to somehow mount .DSK images programmatically from the Oric itself, rather than requiring user interaction...
Re: ORIC SDCARD
This looks great!
Makes me think that we could re-use old joysticks (quickshot style), integrate a screen and use the joystick + fire button to navigate in the menus
