HP-35 in FPGA - Ren - 10-20-2021 07:52 PM

Hackaday's upcoming Remoticon has a speaker, Rob Weinstein, who will describe how he duplicated the functions of the HP-35 in FPGA using the original patent?
(I hope I got that right)

I didn't see his name when I searched this website; is he here? (Is he banished? shudder!)

Ohhh, very interesting. I'm looking forward to his talk. There is another very interesting talk about the SkyWater kit...

Hi,

That was my presentation at Remoticon 2021. I hope you liked it. I had some technical issues with the presentation, namely Zoom wouldn't see my webcam and in the resulting panic, I shared my presenters view instead of the slideshow view. Other than that, it seemed to go okay.

Here's a link to a short video about the final calculator: https://vimeo.com/648116637

I'm told that the Hackaday folks will be publishing the individual presentations on Youtube, a couple each week. I'll post a link when it's available.

I'm happy to answer questions, let me know.

Thanks,

-Rob

That was an excellent presentation I really enjoyed.
Thanks very much!

Wow! that was a super great presentation.
With the level of research that you did and the details you put into this project, I am amazed that it only took you 750 hours to complete it.
Thank you very much for doing it and for sharing it.
Sylvain

Thanks for the nice comments!

Regarding the time I spent, 750 hours was just the research and initial Verilog design and simulation. I spent another ~750 hours on designing and building the working replica.

I am really impressed! It's incredible the amount of work/research you have done.
Congrats!

Hi,

I promised I'd post a link to the Hackaday article when it became available:

Remoticon 2021 // Rob Weinstein Builds an HP-35 from the Patent Up by Chris Lott

Thanks,

Thanks Rob W.
I have given up Hackaday for Lent, so I probably would have missed the article!
