Has anyone attempted to reassemble and update the microcode on a MicroVAX? Seems like there's enough stuff here to possibly do it: http://simh.trailing-edge.com/semi/ucode/
I'm thinking about trying to find a microcoded architecture to play with before I design something around the Intel 3000 series. I've got a MicroVAX 3800, so I suppose I could run MICRO2 to assemble the aforementioned microcode. But then what? I assume PALs would have to be burned to implement the new microcode. Or is it more complicated than that? I don't have a PDP-11/60, unfortunately. I do have an 11/45, though...so with this modification, I suppose one could have some fun: http://repository.cmu.edu/cgi/viewcontent.cgi?article=3241&context=compsci Thanks, Kyle
