[Brek] wanted to store his 64 bits in style and that means hand-wired core memory. OK, we’re pretty sure that the solution came first, and then [Brek] found a fitting problem that could be ...

The board has been around a little while, but a recent video shined a spotlight on this retro design. Impractical or not, there’s something charming about having real magnetic core memory on a ...

If desired, memory-mapped functions can also be connected, as long as the interface protocol is met. Multi-ported devices can also be used; in this case, the ISPRAM or DSPRAM interface is logically ...

The first non-volatile memory that was widely used. Core storage held magnetic charges in tiny ferrite cores, and the direction of the flux determined the 0 or 1. Developed in the late 1940s by Jay W.
