Hello :)
I've just bought what appears to be a brand new and boxed '1360'.
As a young techie girl in the 80's I had a PC-1248 and bought one of these a few weeks back soon realising why I became bored with it in the 80's, you can barely hack the 1248. So now I have a 1360.
Lots of ideas here of things to do, the first would be to pick up some 32Kb memory cards and to build a serial interface. No problems with the MAX233 and digital I/O :) I turned out as an embedded software engineer after all that poking and peeking in the 80's.
The first offer of information I can give all of you regarding the 15pin I/O ports is that they're the same size as 2.5" laptop hard drive connectors :) So single in-line 1.27mm (0.05") connectors are almost readily available. The 11pin I/O ports are totally standard 2.54mm (0.1") pitch too. The crucial figures here don't seem to be documented that much out there.
Would there be any call for serial I/O cables as I'm tempted to design a PCB with SMD components on it, and with these single in-line 1.27mm connectors, then to encapsulate the things in heatshrink?
If anyone has any memory cards for sale or even any of the official Sharp 15pin connectors then please do get in touch.
Also eager to get into the machine code on the 1360 too. Have been spoilt with 35instruction RISC microcontrollers so the 100 or so instructions of the 1360 is going to be new.
Hope there are others out there??
All the best,
techie_alison
