Let's Make a simple 6502-based computer, Part 1: The CPU and clock circuit

Video Not Working? Fix It Now

Let's see how to get a 6502 CPU up and running on a breadboard with only an LED for diagnostic equipment! Later on in this project, I ran into some trouble using the clock circuit shown in this video. To make a long story short, the clock circuit shown here works with a Rockwell TTL 6502, but it doesn't seem to work with the WDC 65C02. If you're using a WDC 65C02, I'd suggest not using the clock circuit I build here and instead wait for the third video in this series, where I introduce a clock circuit that works better for the WDC 65C02.
