P112 README
|
|
===========
|
|
|
|
The P112 is notable because it was the first of the hobbyist single board
|
|
computers to reach the production stage. The P112 hobbyist computers
|
|
were relatively widespread and inspired other hobbyist centered home brew
|
|
computing projects such as N8VEM home brew computing project. The P112
|
|
project still maintains many devoted enthusiasts and has an online
|
|
repository of software and other information.
|
|
|
|
The P112 computer originated as a commercial product of "D-X Designs Pty
|
|
Ltd" of Australia. They describe the computer as "The P112 is a stand-alone
|
|
8-bit CPU board. Typically running CP/M (tm) or a similar operating system,
|
|
it provides a Z80182 (Z-80 upgrade) CPU with up to 1MB of memory, serial,
|
|
parallel and diskette IO, and realtime clock, in a 3.5-inch drive form factor.
|
|
Powered solely from 5V, it draws 150mA (nominal: not including disk drives)
|
|
with a 16MHz CPU clock. Clock speeds up to 24.576MHz are possible."
|
|
|
|
The P112 board was last available new in 1996 by Dave Brooks. In late 2004
|
|
on the Usenet Newsgroup comp.os.cpm, talk about making another run of P112
|
|
boards was discussed. David Griffith decided to produce additional P112 kits
|
|
with Dave Brooks blessing and the assistance of others. In addition Terry
|
|
Gulczynski makes additional P112 derivative hobbyist home brew computers.
|
|
Hal Bower was very active in the mid 1990's on the P112 project and ported
|
|
the "Banked/Portable BIOS".
|
|
|
|
Dave Brooks was successfully funded through Kickstarter for and another
|
|
run of P112 boards in November of 2012.

Pin Configuration
|
|
=================
|
|
|
|
The P112 is based on the 5V Z8018216FSG running at 16MHz. The Z8018216FSG
|
|
comes in a 100-pin QFP package:

P112 Serial Console
|
|
===================
|
|
|
|
The UARTs are not used on the P112 board (the UART signals are avaiable off-board through P14).
|
|
The serial console is provided by U7 LT1133, Advanced Low Power 5V RS232 Driver/Receiver
|
|
that connects to the P112 via the Z85230 ESCC channel A.
|
|

Status
|
|
======
|
|
|
|
2014-8-22: After some time idling away, I tried rebuilding with Windows 8, the latest MinGW
|
|
and the latest SDCC. I fixed a few things but there a still a few issues. The last "show
|
|
stopper" before I gave up for now was during building dependencies:
|
|
|
|
ASlink-Error-<cannot open> : "bin/mm_initialize.rel"
|
|
|
|
Clearly there is something wrong with the command line options given to SDCC because it is
|
|
trying to compile and link when we really only want dependencies.
