Hobbyist Builds Discrete 6502 CPU With Raspberry Pi Pico 2 W
A developer designed a discrete 6502 processor using individual logic chips, controlled by a Raspberry Pi Pico 2 W. The project, inspired by Monster 6502, aims to stay 'reasonable' while exploring retro computing. The creator has not yet ordered the PCB from JLCPCB but has passed all file checks.
