Here’s the most amazing 8-bit DIY computer implemented using a bunch of simple logic chips — along with a cornucopia of flashing LEDs — mounted on a cluster of breadboards. I stand in awe. As I’ve ...

A DIYer has decided to document his experience building an 8-bit computer to provide a helpful guide for anyone else looking to do the same. A DIYer has decided to document his experience building an ...

Not content with your new, 1.4-billion-transistor Ivy Bridge processor? Maybe it runs too hot, or lacks the polygon-pushing powers that you require? Well, I've got just the thing for you: How about ...

We've actually already seen one completely home-built 8-bit computer but, while Jake Eisenmann wasn't afraid to show off his creation, Kyle Hovey is actually inviting us along for the ride. The ...

Today, most modern computers use a CPU based on a 64-bit architecture. This basically means that the processors, memory and data buses all traffic in 64-bit blocks of information (a bit is binary unit ...

[Jack Eisenmann] is no stranger to building impressive DIY CPU’s on vast stretches of breadboard. This time [Jack] has done away with the seventeen breadboards he used in his last 8-bit computer and ...

Hullo all, I have been dreaming for a while about building a simple computer based on an 8 bit proccessor. I know that an 8 bit proccessor is not much, but this is a hobby to help me greator ...

Raspberry Pi’s Model B computers and other similarly-sized devices are often described as being the size of the credit card. But thanks to the USB and Ethernet ports, it’s a lot thicker than a credit ...
