  • Real-time MFM disk emulator

    From Reinhard@21:1/5 to All on Tue Jul 2 08:19:09 2019
    Another addon development with PCB board, also SoC/HPS based on the DE10-Nano board.There are already MFM disk emulators but in this case it is possible to read the disk in real-time, create an .img file and is compatible with the SIMH project. It also
    complements the existing RL01 / RL02 emulator.
    Details on my homepage http://www.pdp11gy.com/1E.html and all source on Github: https://github.com/pdp11gy/SoC-HPS-based-MFM-disk-emulator.
    There are still some open points that I would like to solve in cooperation.
    It mainly concerns the different data format of the MFM disk manufacturers. Details in the manual MFM_debug.pdf from GitHub or from my homepage.

    I know how the MFM decoding works (since 2011 with my RL02 emulator) Please read first my manual, then you know what it's about.

    Understand the decoder, and all will be revealed.
