RE: Starting P21Forth
On my board, I almost always have to do a manual reset to get things going.
As I recall, something is broken in the P21 reset design. I just use a
momentary pushbutton.
RE: Running P21 at 5+ volts
Most chips are rated for 10% power supply operation, so 5.5 volts should
be no problem. I don't have my P21 set up right now, but if memory serves
the video is glitchy at even 5.5 volts. I think I was running upwards
of 6 volts. This will make the DRAM run hot and probably reduce its
life.
Maybe Jeff Fox can chime in here... I think the max, do not exceed voltage
is 7 volts.
