Well for now it is mostly sketched out on Quad Paper.
It is a 12/24 bit CPU that is similar to the 6809 but only
can be clocked to 5 Mhz. It is classic in that is about 1960's
to 1970's time frame in that it does not have flags rather
branches on testing of the AC. It just has single carry flag.
I can get you the opcode and other stuff in a few days as
dig out my papers. A mother board, 2 Alu cards, 1 control card
1 I/O card ( 6800 I/O ), 1 memory card ( 1 meg - static )
1 front panel card & leds.
