Join me as I use techniques from the 1980s and 1990s, a computer language standardized in 1999, and perhaps some more modern tools, to develop a discrete event simulation of an 8080-based computer system.

The rule was "Design from the top down, implement from the bottom up" -- and I have a basic design in mind, so we can swing right in with implementing starting from the lowest level primitives and working upward.

In the previous session, I finished up the 8224 (clock generator) module, which generates signals with the specfic timing needed by the 8080, but the test model of "the output is the same as one I hand-checked" is weak. In this session I will start (and perhaps finish) building some tools to check the simulated timing of the simulated signals.
