LGP-30

FPGAs
Jürgen Müller's FPGA realisation of the LGP-30

Just completed construction of this little wonder!   Perfect PCB from Jürgen and very clear instructions.   Alongside is a short video of the little LGP-30 in action.  I still need to add the key tops and I am still thinking about how I will house it.

The monitor display is something that the original builders of the LGP-30 could only dream of:  It shows the drum contents and the major registers!  I can also reduce the drum rotation speed down to just a few RPM when the display animates and shows the tracks moving under the read/write heads!

More videos to follow....
