I wanted to simulate all of them together so I started working on a simulator to do that. The project was canceled and I stopped work on the simulator. I have recently picked it up again and am near near completion but I need some help with test and validation. This is NOT just an ISA simulator, it is trying to be a cycle by cycle simulator so that interconnects between the SX's and other added components can be simulated. There is no documentation. If there is interest in it, I will create some documentation. The simulator uses DLLs as the component models so it is extensible. The SX20/28 and the SX48/52 models are DLLs just like an.y other component. (Someday I would like to develope a Propeller model as well). If there is interest, the DLL interface can also be documented so others can add models. The simulator, models, and utilities represent over 75,000 lines of Object Pascal (Delphi7). Current State: The simulator is functional - allows adding models to a design and interconnecting them using either text mode or graphics mode - (the scematic pages of the design can be printed). The SX20/28 and the SX48/52 models are complete and functional - complete verification is needed. Other models exists and are functional: TTL decoders, latches, bus drivers, etc. CMOS RAM, generic ram, and gates. etc. SXconfigurator - generates configuration code from a GUI. - complete - needs QA Assembler/IDE - Complete - needs QA. If you are interested, in helping or just using the simulator and tools, let me know at SXtools@doughale.com I will try to put together some minimal documentation quickly if there is interest. Also, one of the things I would like to simulate is the actuall programming of the device. I would need some help from Parallax to know the content and format of the programming data to do that.
