Hello world!

Welcome back for a new video, today we will see how to interface a CompactFlash card with Zeal 8-bit Computer: from theory to practice.

To do so, we will talk about how we can interface it, how to make a PCB for it and how to write a software driver written in Z80 assembly.

Thanks to that, Zeal 8-bit Computer can have megabytes or even gigabytes of memory to store data.

Feel free to leave a comment if you have any question!
