I feel like the arduino is cheating
- colejohnson66 4y agoAll it's doing is generating a clock. How's that cheating?
- krallja 4y agoIt’s only used to generate a very low clock rate. It’s replaced with a 4MHz oscillator later in the series.
- II2II 4y agoUsing the Arduino is a great idea. It can provide scaffolding during the development process, and can replaced with something better suited to the task when they are ready.
- ddingus 4y agoThe test harness! When one lacks more sophisticated gear, this is a great way to get started and have a chance at success. BTW: I love Propeller chips for this purpose! They are multiprocessors in both the parallel and concurrent sense and that makes them quite useful! One can build up simple scopes, logic analyzers, signal generators, and other useful tools and use the chip to both display output, measure and more.
- dazzawazza 4y agoI know what you mean but I actually thought it was quite a cool way to start out and as someone else has said, it is replaced later.
