MiSTer port by Sorgelig
This port has the following changes and enhancements:
- Choose between C16(64KB) and Plus/4
- Cartridge support (*.BIN) for Plus/4 model
- Disk with write support (*.D64)
- Partly/fully loadable system ROM for C1541, Kernal, Basic, Function.
- Scandoubler with HQ2x and Scanlines
- Joystick with swap function
- Reset procedure has been improved and should be stable now.
Multiple alternative Kernal ROMs can be loaded from SD card. Put for example kernal.rom, kernal2.rom, jiffy.rom, etc. into C16 folder or subfolder.
Content of kernal.rom: C1541 + kernal + basic + func_low + func_high
Each part is 16KB.
You can load only part of a whole ROM, for example only C1541+kernal (JiffyDOS).

FPGATED v1.0
Copyright 2013-2016 Istvan Hegedus
FPGATED is a cycle exact FPGA core for the MOS 7360/8360 TED chip written in verilog language.
MOS 7360/8360 is complex chip providing graphic, sound, bus and memory control for the Commodore 264
series 8 bit computers, namely the Commodore Plus4, Commodore 16 and Commodore 116.
In addition to the TED core modul FPGATED contains a simple C16 implementation using TED core and Gadget Factory's
Papilio One 500k platform with a customized IO wing called Papilio TEDWing. The 6502 CPU core of C16 is created by
Peter Wendrich in vhdl and is taken from the FPGA64 project with the permission of the author.

Installation instructions are for Xilinx FPGA platforms but the source files with the exception of palclockgen.v
and Xilinx ucf files can be used for other vendor's FPGAs.
Some modules are using Xilinx specific (* RAM_STYLE="BLOCK" *) directive for forcing the synthesis tool to
use FPGA internal block ram for certain arrays. In case of other vendor's FPGAs see vendor specific documentation
for generating block ram.
Building FPGATED on the Papilio Platform requires a suitable wing. One can use the Arcade megawing but it lacks
external memory and IEC bus for peripherial connections. Thus I recommend to build TEDwing designed by me. Look for
eagle PCB and schematic files in FPGATED source package.
Although FPGATED can be synthetised to a Papilio One board using Spartan3E chip, I recommend to go for Papilio Pro
platform which has external 8Mbyte SDRAM and a Spartan 6 LX9 FPGA which has more internal sram. In both cases there
are plenty of free resources on the FPGA for FPGATED (if you use external 64k ram).
Installation instructions:
1. Create a new project in Xilinx ISE Webpack and choose the proper FPGA family for the implementation.
2. Choose to use HDL verilog and vhdl for the design.
3. Add all *.v files to the project
4. Using ISE DCM wizard create a clock generator for FPGATED.
Use CLKFX output of DCM and specify 28.37515MHz PAL or 28.63636MHz for NTSC system
This will be the main FPGA clock connected to the clk signal of all modules
Modify C16.v to use proper DCM instantiation (out of scope of this document)
5. Open kernal_rom.v and uncomment the proper Kernal file (Kernal_NTSC.hex or Kernal_PAL.hex) to use.
You can even use a custom rom or JiffyDos if you own it (JiffyDos is working fine, I have tested).
Diag264 roms are included for testing purposes.
6. If you don't use TEDwing modify or replace TEDwing.ucf file for proper pinout setup
7. Video output of FPGATED is a PAL/NTSC RGBS signal so you will need a VGA->scart custom cable to
hook it up to a monitor or television. The cable is identical to minimig scart cables (see internet for wiring diagram)
Enjoy FPGATED.
See https://hackaday.io/project/11460-fpgated for detailed installation instructions.
TED module signals:
input wire clk main FPGA clock must be 4*dot clk so 28.375152MHz for PAL and 28.63636 for NTSC
input wire [15:0] addr_in 16 bits address bus in
output wire [15:0] addr_out 16 bits address bus out
input wire [7:0] data_in 8 bits data bus in
output wire [7:0] data_out 8 bits data bus out
input wire rw RW signal to TED, low during write, high during read (real TED pulls it high during reads)
output wire cpuclk this is a CPU clock out for external real CPU
output wire [6:0] color 7 bits color code using TED's color palette values
output wire csync composite sync signal for PAL/NTSC displays
output wire irq active low IRQ signal to CPU
output wire ba BA (or with other name RDY) signal to 8501 CPU
output reg mux MUX signal, identical to original
output reg ras RAS signal, identical to original
output reg cas CAS signal, identical to original
output reg cs0 CS0 signal, identical to original
output reg cs1 CS1 signal, identical to original
output reg aec AEC signal, identical to original
output wire snd Sound output. PWM modulated sound, needs a low pass filter outside the FPGA
input wire [7:0] k Keyport in, same as in original TED
output wire cpuenable a short enable signal used for synchronous FPGA 6502 CPU clocking
Still to do:
FPGATED is not ready yet. I just released it in this state because I did not want to keep it in a secret longer before someone else
creates it. I have plans to continue.
- write a plus4 shell using Papilio Pro platform
- Jostick emulation on keyboard (as TEDwing doesn't have joystick ports)
- scandoubler for VGA displays
- fix internal video shift mechanism for proper FLI emulation
- Chorma/Luma signal generation
- Try it in a real C16 or Plus4!

Thanks to Laszlo Jozsef for the color conversion table and the Spartan6 board that I have never had time to build...
