The project of emulating an Oric-1 in a FPGA is something I started some months ago... until my interest in doing such a thing faded a bit...
Fortunately, mostly because of the (then upcoming) Alchimie 7 party, I went back to this project. I didn't manage to have something working (at least showing some stuff on a TV) during this party, but I worked a bit on it, and managed to get some results in simulation.

Now, after a few days worth of work, here is a first version on the "Oric-on-a-chip" booting the Oric Atmos ROM :)



You may notice some issues here : the first line is not what it is expected to be, and for some reason, it acts like the * keyboard key is pressed forever. But well, that's a good start anyway.
For the moment, there is no PSG implementation at all, and I guess the VIA and ULA code need some rework too :)

More to come soon, hopefully :)
