Emulated Woz Machine

Introduction

Two years ago between christmas and new year I wrote a tiny and incomplete 6502 emulator and turned it into an original Apple 1 emulator. It was a fun and nostalgic project to work on. I grew up with the Apple II and never had a change to see an Apple 1 in action.

A few weeks ago I decided to pick this project up again. I am extremely motivated to turn this into a high quality emulator that supports the Apple 1, Replica 1, Apple ][+ and Apple IIe. Some of that work is really close to being finished, other work will take many months of spare time hacking.

Goals & Status

Here are some of the things I want to accomplish for each emulated machine:

CPU Emulator

• 6502 support
• 65C02 support
• Tracing facility
• Debugger
• Speed throttling

Apple 1

8K / 6502 / Classic ROM

• Classic display emulation (SDL based)
• Cassette interface

Replica 1

32K / 65C02 / KRUSADER ROM

• Terminal based emulation
• Classic display emulation (SDL based)
• Cassette interface
• CFFA1 Support

Apple ][+

48K / 6502

• Basic Apple ][+ architecture implementation - In progress
• Disk II emulation - In progress
• Display Emulation - 40 Column mode
• Display Emulation - Low resolution graphics
• Apple Language Card
• Joystick Support
• Audio Support
• Display Emulation - High resolution graphics - Mostly works.
