- I'd suggest to get the application notes from Motorola. They show
- example schematics and give some details on programming. Motorola
- also has a BBS where you can download example software including
- the monitor program used on Motorolas development system.
-
- As for hardware, it depends. If you build a small system, the 8x24bit
- RAM from Motorola helps to make a very compact design. For me this
- memory size wasn't sufficient, so I used 3 32kx8 chips.
-
- Hope this helps,
