Olimex Neo6502pc User Manual
User manual for the Neo6502pc, an open-source retro computer featuring a W65C02 CPU, RP2040 co-processor for HDMI and USB host, and 64KB virtualized RAM.
Overview
The Neo6502pc is an open-source standalone computer that combines a physical Western Design Center W65C02 processor running at 6.25MHz with a Raspberry Pi RP2040 co-processor. The RP2040 virtualizes the 64KB RAM space for the 6502 and manages HDMI/DVI video generation, USB host functionality for keyboards and gamepads, and storage via USB flash drives. Hardware features include three USB host ports, an internal LiPo battery for portable use, and extensive expansion options via four UEXT connectors and a 12-pin GPIO header controlled by a WCH CH32V003 MCU. The system supports NeoBASIC and various retro emulators, including Apple IIe and Oric Atmos.
Use Cases
- Retro gaming and emulation for Apple IIe and Oric Atmos platforms
- Educational hardware development for the 6502 microprocessor architecture
- Portable standalone computing with internal battery support
- Embedded system prototyping using UEXT expansion modules and GPIO
- Programming in Pascal, C, and BASIC for 8-bit hardware architectures
