Sure!
Eventually I would like to equip Octo with an optional 1802 emulation mode and the necessary mixed-mode assembler for producing 1802 machine code. Probably won't be available any time soon without strong demand, though.
- nickpsecurity 11y agoThat's understandable. I doubt the demand will show up but it was cool to see them connected in the write-up. Few even know 1802 exist much less why it's worth copying. Not sure how far you like to push yourself on low-level coding, reading on or doing it. I'll end with these links for your entertainment: 4-bit MCU's: the next challenge for 8-bit masters to strut their stuff. Interesting article esp how they're sold. http://www.embeddedinsights.com/channels/2010/12/10/considerations-for-4-bit-processing/ http://www.embeddedinsights.com/channels/2010/12/10/consider... Example 4-bit CPU's for public http://www.ttlcpu.com/content/links http://www.ttlcpu.com/content/links Note: Really wonder what best retro games would look like on 4-bits, esp after hardware acceleration tradeoffs. I always challenge the demoscene to show us. ;) Motorola 1-bit processor: "Real men don't need hulking 4-8 bitters!"

Note: Manual and source code are attached to comments on that page. Would be amazed at seeing people do anything useful in modern applications with these. They'd win by default on memory/power/area efficiency haha.
