Do you have a link for this clean version? I did a quick search but it was inconclusive. Thanks!

Okay, I've got it running at FCLK 6mhz with Port 3 at 115200 at boot. I'm still using the external clock for Timer 4. For some reason, I can't get FCLK over 6mhz. I just get garbage if I try.

I don't know how you managed to get Port 3 to run at 115200 at boot.

The ROM monitor listing has calculations for FCLK =< 6.144 Mhz, and bps =<57600.

Page 30 of the w65c265 datasheet v2.1 has the formula to get the values to program the timers for arbitrary FCLK and bps.

Custom ROM.

Does your custom rom contain values for calculating FCLK over 6 mhz and corresponding baud rates?
The internal rom will default to 3.68 mhz on error.
BTW congrats!

Cheers, Andy

Andy,

Great question! My ROM doesn't need to do that because I made FCLK independent of the baud rate. I use TIN on P60 to connect an oscillator for Timer 4. In my case, 1.8432mhz. That is what it uses to set the baud rate. Therefore, you can use whatever FCLK you desire.

I presume that you want to re-assemble the W65C265's monitor program but with UART not clashing. I understand that the monitor looks for a magic string at $8000 and then runs an external program. If you're not using the region from $8000-$DEFF, it might be quicker and easier to run a patched copy of the monitor from external ROM. It might also be desirable to use an external UART.

The "magic" bytes are "WDC", and the internal rom searches a few different addresses for that. But, I agree that an external UART is desirable.

I found two errors, but they were simple to fix with two wires and some solder.

Testing her like crazy!

I would have hoped for a 65256 chip version that has lots of internal RAM and boots from SPI flash, so all IO pins would be available instead of having to sacrifice them for the system bus

I guess that would have made too much sense (?)

Who knows... maybe some day WDC surprises all of us with a fpga based '265s, so what you say can be achieved.
