I’ve recently received a couple emails on additions to the logic analyzer page.
Once I get some time to check them out, I’ll make the corrections.
I’ve been super busy with life — switched jobs after 11+ years at the same company.. Learning new people, new things, etc Baby is keeping us busy too.
I picked up a Nikon D300 camera which is awesome……
More to follow once I get some time to play around

Hello! I’ve just stumbled across your blog, and I’m excited to read all about it. I’ve just started looking at doing something similar with an Atmel AVR, but for a CP/M single board computer instead of the Amiga.
I’m only just learning about doing MFM decoding. It seems to be a terrible mess, but when life hands you lemons, you make lemonade. I’m sure it’ll be a fun challenge!
Hi Seth.
I’m excited to have you here — welcome!
There was a frequent commenter here, Tim, who used an AVR — right hand side links Flash/SD link……
This idea could certainly work for a variety of different disk formats, but would obviously need modified to support it. I don’t have my code up anyplace easily accessible. It’s a mix between SX/B (BASIC), with assembly doing all the important stuff. I can throw it up here if that would help.
MFM decoding itself isn’t terribly hard at all — it’s just the goofy Amiga way of separating ODD and EVEN bits across a sector that make decoding it not-super-straight-forward. I’m not aware of any other formats that do that type of thing, but I wouldn’t be surprised if there quirks about those too. 🙂
I really enjoyed this project, but recently just don’t have enough time to dedicate to it…. Maybe that will change, but for the time being, I’m limited to what I can do.
thanks
