Description
The new KIM-1 memory board is finally ready after several months of work and distractions. This is the super board every KIM owner would have loved to have back in the 1970s. It’s a combination RAM and EPROM board with a fair amount of flexibility for adding more functionality to your KIM-1!
Features:
- Fills in the KIM’s missing RAM from $0400 to $13FF, giving you 5K from $0000 to $13FF.
- Has RAM from $2000 to $FFF7, selectable in 8K segments.
- The top 8K ($E000 to $FFFF) can optionally be replaced with 8K of EPROM on the board (27C64 EPROM).
- Includes our xKIM extended KIM-1 monitor by default.
- The xKIM monitor has commands to load hex files, dump and edit memory, a memory test, plus commands to access SD card features from our SD Card System.
- The extended monitor has vectors to command functions so programs written for it won’t break when new versions are introduced.
This board can be added to any KIM-1 system, but the easiest way to add it is with our I/O Board. This board comes with a ribbon cable that plugs right into the I/O Board with no mess. By default the DIP switches are set so your KIM will have 5K of RAM from $0000 to $13FF and from $2000 to $DFFF. The extended monitor is from $E000 to $FFFF.
