In this episode we look in detail at each pin of the 6502 explaining the function of each and how to connect them for a basic system. I also highlight the differences between the modern W65C02 version from Western Design Centre (WDC) and the original 6502's from yesteryear.

Board wire (red, black, white, green, blue, yellow): https://amzn.to/3LIvWVx UK Breadboards : https://amzn.to/3oTBJOo Note: These are not the ones I'm using in the videos, I'm using BusBoard ones not Elegoo. Busboard are much more expensive but are highly rated. The Elegoo are probably fine, I've used other cheap breadboards lots of times and been fine but for full disclosure I cannot vouch for these particular ones. If you can, order from US Amazon, which does Busboard. That's where I get mine from. The process is just like ordering from UK.
