Reference Sample ROM
It is provided a ROM with a reference application, and the correspnding
Z80 source codes.
To use the application you will need to connect the S3E board to a
VGA monitor and PS/2 keyboard.
The program will show how to use:
Input push buttons
Input Switches
PS/2 keyboard
Video text out
Leds
LCD
The program starts waiting for keys to be typed in the keyboard.
The characters are shown on the 40x30 video (VGA).
If "A" is pressed, then the program starts another routine,
that will write bytes into RAM. After 255 bytes are written,
the bytes are read sequencially and the byte read displayed in the leds (binary format).
When finished, waits for KEY0 (East on S3E board) and then restart again.
The switches (4-0) are used as input to calculate delays. Try
changing these switches to speed up ou slow down the leds. It only
takes effect after a Z80 reset.
To reset the Z80, use Key West (left push button).
Hope you enjoy.
