| Any value to a fast 8255?       |        | 01/01/70 00:00       | 
|    Fast 8255       |        | 01/01/70 00:00       | 
|       8255 breakeven volume       |        | 01/01/70 00:00       | 
|          there are a few things ...       |        | 01/01/70 00:00       | 
|             8255 vs 6824       |        | 01/01/70 00:00       | 
|                too many users failed       |        | 01/01/70 00:00       | 
|             Reconfiguration       |        | 01/01/70 00:00       | 
|                Yes, one had to know how the device behaved.       |        | 01/01/70 00:00       | 
|                the 8255 was tough to learn, but in its crummy way       |        | 01/01/70 00:00       | 
|    peaple would rather forget the 8255       |        | 01/01/70 00:00       | 
|       Why do you suppose that is, Jez?       |        | 01/01/70 00:00       | 
|    raison d'etre       |        | 01/01/70 00:00       | 
|       Main reason, I think       |        | 01/01/70 00:00       | 
|          There are other reasons, too.       |        | 01/01/70 00:00       | 
|             Thanks for sharing your experience!       |        | 01/01/70 00:00       | 
|       There's also a large replacement part market.       |        | 01/01/70 00:00       | 
|          but for that you have to compste with Intersil       |        | 01/01/70 00:00       | 
|             Intersil still only offers the \'80\'s technology       |        | 01/01/70 00:00       | 
|                May be I am wrong, but...       |        | 01/01/70 00:00       | 
|                   It hasn't got the same sort of ports as the 805x       |        | 01/01/70 00:00       | 
|                      Yes, you are right       |        | 01/01/70 00:00       |

|       You're on the right track, EXCEPT ...       |        | 01/01/70 00:00       |

|       It makes little sense to teach 8085, or does it?       |        | 01/01/70 00:00       | 
|          I Agree       |        | 01/01/70 00:00       |

|          Enhanced 8255       |        | 01/01/70 00:00       | 
|             If all one could get is PLCC ...       |        | 01/01/70 00:00       | 
|          well i have come up with a way.       |        | 01/01/70 00:00       | 
|             There is a problem with FPGA\'s ...       |        | 01/01/70 00:00       | 
|                nRD is needed in the 8255 as a clock       |        | 01/01/70 00:00       | 
|                   Perhaps that\'s because they use latches       |        | 01/01/70 00:00       | 
|                      on using undefined states       |        | 01/01/70 00:00       | 
|                         grounding chip select is risky       |        | 01/01/70 00:00       | 
|                            but what if it is grounded?       |        | 01/01/70 00:00       | 
|                clinging to the past       |        | 01/01/70 00:00       | 
|                   Don't forget the Maxim/Dallas parts, they use 5V0       |        | 01/01/70 00:00       | 
|                      as usual apples and oranges       |        | 01/01/70 00:00       | 
|                         you need to see it from Richard's viewpoint       |        | 01/01/70 00:00       | 
|                            he has the right to his viewpoint ...       |        | 01/01/70 00:00       | 
|                               There's room for disagreement on that ...       |        | 01/01/70 00:00       | 
|                         "development" and "replacement" are different       |        | 01/01/70 00:00       | 
|                            well, for the (in)famous "universal board"       |        | 01/01/70 00:00       | 
|                               If there's a market, it would be for THE part       |        | 01/01/70 00:00       |
