Making and Testing a 'DodgyPLA' (Open Source CPLD PLA for C64)

Thought I would test the limits of my home etching and build a few CPLD PLAs for the Commodore 64.

Video shows cold toner transfer method, building of board from scratch, programming with a Xilinx programmer and iMPACT and then a quick test in one of my fussiest C64s with an especially fussy Super Zaxxon cartridge.

Good Luck All.
