Re: Apple II Interrupt card
<snip>
back to the original goal...
Assume that people want to run Contiki...
Need:
Ethernet card.
Clock for those who don't have one.
Software:
Contiki uses the uIP stack and works with a clock for timing.
Discussion of interrupt card, mouse card or clock card to provide
interrupts, even though Contiki does not need them.
One problem is heavy traffic on the network. I've been reading the
application note on the CS8900A in 8-bit mode. It does not support
interrupts and must be polled. As long as there is enough time to
handle each packet, we're ok.
I have no problem with interrupts, it does make some things easier to
deal with.
