Quote from: Socratessa on March 07, 2011, 08:29 PMI found a suggestion how to add a clock to the c64 or 128 by connecting it to the joystick port.

Anybody heard from this chip? Its named a smartwatch chip.
Is there a schematic around on the internet?
I got some info in cvt files but that info is really messed up.
It could be what you are referring to is a Dallas 1216E SmartWatch, which can be plugged into the internal ROM socket in the 128.  It is designed so that it can be written to even though in a socket without a R/W signal.  Attaching it to a joystick port isn't too difficult.

It seems that this is the chip i am talking about. Thanks for the info.
Now lets see if i can get my hand on such a chip and if its executable to add it to my joystick port.

Thanks for info both  :-* still always in for some new info if someone have that about this subject please share it.

I'm pretty sure Vanessa has done internal RAM expansion to her Tower C1218.

Any chance you can provide me a link to this tower? If there is ofcourse. I'll try google first.

dont bother found it
