Flowers 40,000 pounds, 40,000 transistors, hundreds of circuit boards - foreign electronic ghosts, DIY half-ton oversized computers

True, dare to live in DIY's own life; true warrior, dare to DIY's own electronic products; true war, dare to use only wire and transistor DIY own computer. Regarding why this huge thing, James Newman, an electronics engineer has its own idea. Because people can't perspective the computer, or let yourself get it to a silicon chip, let's go, so he ... Be From zero starting computers ... What kind of festival is this. The average person is a system, which is a system, which is called James Newman, but he doesn't think so. He feels that you don't have a tangible computer that you take a wire. You are embarrassed to say hello to others ... The old brother started to create a computer called Megaprocessor since 2012, located in the living room in his Cambridge, and finally announced. This width is 10 meters high, and a large computer with a weight of 0.5 tons contains 40,000 electrical crystals and 10,000 LED bulbs, but foot is 40,000 £ 40,000. James Newman uses it to play the "Russian Square" game. But honestly, it seems to be very difficult. Be A engineer who wants to work with CPU is super invincible, and then look at how he is realized ... The current computer, only one CPU is there. It is hundreds of millions of transistors ... pure hand-handed, it is not imaginable, even if it is strong, such a person can only retreat, and finally create a very low configuration computer ... but that It is also a computer! ! He wanted to visualize how the microprocessor works. Through the creation of a computer that can "let people feel", "the sequencing of the LED bulbs can be" see "to" see "the stream and logic of the information. Be The entire MEGAPROCESSOR component is almost all manually welded, and 40,000 electrical crystals installed above, each of the electrostatics is like a digital switch, can link together to constitute a large decision circuit, according to a connection to execute software; When the action, the LED lights of each component will illuminate, how to demonstrate how the CPU core is run, for example with the "Russian Square" game. However, it is actually only the operation of the 16-bit microprocessor. It may be more beautiful, in fact, in fact, with the transistors and circuit boards, the computer created step by step is a peerless cool cool, what is the original intention of this engineering? What is the real operation and demo of this computer? Next, his video introduction can be seen ... "Maybe the electric effect on your desk can be better than me, but I am beautiful, and I still have 10,000 LED bulbs." He said that the reporters of BBC said. Be As for this computer, you can find a buyer who knows the goods in the future. In fact, he is also quite suspected. But he was the ultimate goal of the MEGAPROCESSOR. It was not to sell money, but it hoped to use tools for education. If you can put it in the museum or school better. However, before these ideas became true, he had already been very enthusiastic to open the registration to visit this computer. Not only "Russian square", you can also play "circle fork". video: Source: YouTube
