- doctorshady 6y agoFrom an engineer I talked to who worked with one of these, apparently you can use a toggle switch to single step the processor and do all manner of weird things with it. That being said, I wonder if you can kluge pulse-density modulation (think: oversampled, 1-bit audio streams. Popular on a lot of nineties DACs) out of something like this.
- stevekemp 6y agoThere are other chips like that which can be single-stepped. The one that I've driven with a push-button wired to the clock-input would be the Z80. The z80 is very tolerant to slow clocks, letting you pulse every second or two to step forwards and watch the data & I/O lines in real-time.
