SCC2691 ACIA or UART

Post by gwkaub »

Has anyone got one of these wired up and programed on a C64 or C128?
I can enable chip and write(WRN), but the read enable(RDN) is not simple thing to get working.
I am trying to connect directly to buss. I don't want to go thru an interface chip to talk to this interface chip.
thank you

You ought to PM jrubin. He uses an ACIA for controlling his ham radio and might be able to help.

Ok its a timing problem. The 2691 calls for RDN to go low with CEN low if I do both at the same time it doesn't work.
I asked for a quote from some obsolete parts places for going back to R6551.
The one quote back from 4STAR $20. With all this work for obsolete parts I think I will just go
with something new I can program as a UART. The Parallax Prop chip at $8 will give me lots of options. I have done projects
with the Prop before. I was thinking it was overkill, but keeps things interesting.
