Tron-TTL
Trying to make a replica of the gigatron in simulide. The numbers refer to the numbers of the schematics in the manual. For example: schematic 4-8 is page 51 in the manual where Id: 4/8 is pictured.

The Rom is uploaded with the program ROMv1.rom.
It can be found here :

'Tron 10 completed.simu' is my final result and it doesn't do much, it runs 3 clock cycles and starts over again. However, the simulation drawing is as close as I could get it to the original and is double checked for mistakes. Feel free to take it from here and do some programming or experimenting to improve it.

Except for the Output/Input section I could get very close to the original schematics with SimulIDE. If I had more programming skills than maybe I could get more out of it. Want to test some more but that involves changes to this drawing so I leave this one as the final version.

More action can be seen and heard when tunnel !PL (and !PH) in the counter section (top left) are disconnected and the lines are kept at high.
