Hey, I'm looking for a book recommendation for building a simple computer, preferably something more recent and maybe can be found on amazon or similar sites (physical copy).
It would ideally cover building an 8bit or 16bit thing with a processor, rom/ram, possibly lcd or audio output. Nothing too fancy really. I am aiming for one that has separate chips for each aspect as opposed to a monolithic "does everything" chip and preferably uses chips that come in a package that I can easily use with a perf board
I am not too interested in the details of how the main processor circuit works, I am looking for a higher level overview of all the components used and why/how they are used. Ideally it would include how to create a program for it
Hopefully this is clear enough. I tried searching the forums but I don't get very relevant results
I think a lot of people call them retro computers but ideally if I try to design/build my own I would like easy to find and relatively inexpensive parts
Thanks in advance
PS: If there is another topic like this already it would be nice to post that link here too
