Commodore LCD Firmware
-
The files below are EPROM images from Bil Herd‘s prototype Commodore LCD.
You can also download them as a single archive: commodore-lcd-roms.zip
I’ve always been curious about this machine so I sent my device programmer to Bil so that he could read the EPROMs. Bil was very kind to do this and we should all thank him for it. This is the first time that these images have been seen in many years.
Start your disassemblers!

Many thanks to both Mike and Bil.
The roms have also been made available from http://ftp.zimmers.net (the old funet archive)

Great! Now, all we need are some specs on some of the IC’s inside (LCD controller etc.) and we can start adding the Commodore LCD emulation to VICE!
