I just have completed the port of my transputer assembler to MS-DOS, using Turbo C++ 3 (I intended to use the Mark DeSmet c88 compiler but it has too many bugs). As result the full toolchain for compiling Pascal programs for #transputer now works in DOS. https://github.com/nanochess/transputer

I just have released the schematics and PCB of my transputer board, along an article describing the process. Enjoy it! #retro #transputer #ibmpc #dos https://nanochess.org/transputer_board.html

Maybe it is just nostalgia, but I've written the required DOS software to run my basic transputer operating system from a real 1.44mb floppy. Edit, compile, and assemble completely inside my OS. The code is in my git. #retro #transputer

At the start of April, I bought two transputer boards for 25$ each on eBay. I've been building an ISA board to test Today, after destroying two 74LS08, solving three disconected wires, and adding a decoupling capacitor, it finally says "nano" #retro #homebrew #transputer

I could buy an Inmos B004 board in eBay, or I could collect enough information to make a PC/XT ISA board and test my two TRAM modules #retro #transputer

#wennIchZeitHätte würde ich ja gerne mal nen Haufen recht minimale #riscv cores 2-3 Dimensional anordnen & auf die Kanten schnelle Dual Port RAM packen ... In der Praxis vermutlich ne 2-D FPGA Matrix in die das sinnvoll rein synthetisiert ist. Also so ein bischen wie die #transputer... Ohne konkretes Ziel einfach um dann den Design Space zu erforschen.... Ok doch ein Design Ziel wäre das sich Software dafür aus ner dependently typed Sprache sinnvoll erzeugen lässt :) ... Wenn ich Zeit hätte.

If you read my article about my Pascal compiler for transputer, my Small-C compiler and early operating system, then hold on to your chair: I just have wrote about my full operating system and K&R C compiler for transputer #retro #transputer https://nanochess.org/transputer_operating_system.html

Somebody should implement the T800 #transputer on a #RaspberryPi #rp2040.

Those DMA state engines are more than capable of implementing the transputer serial links...

The sheer level of #retrocomputing nerdery. Now I've got books about Transputers. #Transputer #Inmos #Transputers
