It’s been a while, since the PDP-12 had it’s debut. Prof. Peter Peterson and his team have brought one of the machines back to life and documented their approach.

A fresh OS for the breadbin and the best of retro news of the past 14 days in Issue #62 of 8bitnews.

I'm hoping to do a series of articles / threads about how the PDP-12 works, by diving into its instruction set and other low-level behaviors. Here's the first one of these threads! 🧵 #pdp12 #umdpdp12 #RetroComputing

This just in, the LINC already has XOR! 🤯 It's just that the quick reference booklet describes it in an unusual way. The instruction list is clearer, but less precise. Anyway, eat it, 8-mode, our checksum doesn't need you! #umdpdp12 #pdp12 #pdp #retrocomputing

How do you implement OR and XOR for the #pdp8, a machine that only has AND and NOT? (Fortunately, the #LINC in the #pdp12 has more logical operations) https://t.co/eSRIte0EjR #umdpdp12 #retrocomputing

The RIM loader is part of the boot process for a #pdp8 and #pdp12. It preps the machine to read tape. Instructions are 12 bits, written as 4 octal values each. This can be a major scale (0 = C, 7 = high C, etc.). Enjoy. https://t.co/FoDYImiZqM #retrocomputing #umdpdp12

Here's a #DEC M222 flipchip (revision B). It's a slice of the #LINC tape register (the #PDP12 has 6 of these cards). This is a "double-height" card in DEC parlance (i.e., two chips side by side), and, as @Michael26413485 said, they do take a while to test! https://t.co/Paa3XlW1WE

The value of having a spreadsheet like this is that we can easily track the results of our flipchip tester and other maintenance by adding comments in the relevant cells: #umdpdp12 #pdp12 #retrocomputing

M212 6-bit L-R shift register. This one has been repaired. This is one of the most incredible things about this era -- you can fix the CPU. #PDP #PDP12 #retrocomputing #dec #umdpdp12 @DawsonRosell

#dec flipchip M119 -- 3 8-input NAND gates. This one takes a while to test. #pdp12 #pdp #retrocomputing #umdpdp12



My 7 y.o. thinks it must be opposite day if this is what the #DEC #PDP12 sounds like when it's operating correctly. 😂 #vintagecomputing
Most of one loop of the Tape Control Test.
So, we are rerunning the original diagnostics to see if/what broke in the last two years. And look who showed up -- Chandler! #umdpdp12 #pdp12 #vintagecomputing #dec #retrocomputing

Weird stuff is happening. The intermittent error we saw 2 years ago has either healed itself, or we are probing the wrong stuff. Marking a tape to rerun the Tape Data Test failed (spooling the whole tape to the other spool). #umdpdp12 #pdp12 #vintagecomputing #dec #retrocomputing

The program on the whiteboard loads the contents from the right switches into the accumulator and then into the extended operations buffer and back, allowing us to manually set and unset bits in the XOB. LINC mode. #PDP12 #vintagecomputing #retrocomputing #DEC #UMDPDP12

Picking up where we left off on the PDP-12 ... about two years later. Where is the physical problem in the extended tape operations buffer (XOB)? #pdp12 #retrocomputing #vintagecomputing #dec https://t.co/EV3rXhKIbR @JulianNowaczek @DawsonRosell

#NoTePierdas a la Ing. Jessica Dávalos y al Ing. Celestino Antonioli quienes nos presentan la PDP-12, ¡conócela!, en la edición 147 de @conversusdelipn #LaCienciaDeDatos

The #pdp12 still works! And still plays SPACEWAR! Nature is healing. #retrocomputing #vintagecomputing @JulianNowaczek @DawsonRosell
@xchatty @snorerot13 Seriously though, @JulianNowaczek, when we get back to campus, let's do a video using ed on the #pdp12.
