Our school project

For our school project, we have created a computer. After a lot of studying and research we have designed an 8-bits computer that could run simple programs with a maximum of 64 instructions. We gave it the name Tineke, a Dutch female name.Before building her, we have built a minimalised version of Tineke, called Gerda, for testing purposes. She is programmed to find prime numbers. This takes a long time, because our simulator is not (yet) fast enough to handle a higher clock speed. In our final computer Tineke we managed to upgrade the clock speed.After a year of hard work we have finished Tineke. She has 640 bytes of RAM, a 17 Hz processor and she is fully programmable.The .zip file below contains the .board file of Tineke, the .board file of Tineke programmed to output prime numbers, and a few schematics for programming Tineke. file_downloadDownload tineke.zip
