Programming the Micral N
By Sylvain Glaize So we have functional hardware, functional emulation. We also have everything we need to communicate with the machine via the serial port. Now it's time to plan a few programs that could be run. To do this, we plan to use a floppy disk drive simulator, but this time we're going to use it as a simulator.
Progress on the Micral N emulator
By Sylvain Glaize. The Micral N is up and running. Once the emotions are over - a mixture of relief and joy - it's time to check that the emulator behaves like the real thing. Particularly on unclear points in the documentation, which could lead to several interpretations. This was the case with
The beginnings of an emulator
By Sylvain Glaize. Let's go back a bit. From our very first discussions on the project, there was the idea of creating a Micral N simulator. The first was to give everyone the chance to manipulate this rare machine virtually. The second is to give everyone the chance to manipulate this rare machine virtually,
Reading and saving Micral N ROMs
By Sylvain Glaize. On 5 April 2021, the all-important Micral N ROM dump session will take place. These EPROMs are so old that it's possible to see the storage transistors because the engraving is so rough. Find out more about their technology,
