In addition to being able to provide larger ROM based applications such as Inter-Word and Inter-Base, it also served as copy protection since the carrier board and PAL would have to be reproduced to support the ROM. Other publishers such as Beebug and PMS also used the carrier boards and PAL provided by Computer Concepts. Watford Electronics PALPROM carrier boards (PAL16L8): The PALPROM device provides a means of running 32K software within the space allocated to a 16K sideways ROM whilst providing a good degree of software protection. Within a PALPROM, a 32K EPROM is divided into 4 banks of 8K. These are arranged in a 3 plus 1 arrangement. Bank 0, which occupies &8000 to &9FFF is permanently enabled, whilst banks 1 to 3, which occupy the region &A000 to &BFFF, are swapped in one at a time. This swapping is made by performing an access to a special switching zone, of which there are 8 in total. Accessing a switching zone, which is 32 bytes in length and aligned to start on a 32 byte boundary, selects a pre-specified bank (1 to 3) P.R.E.S. PALPROM carrier boards: This was based on the Computer Concepts carrier board. Instant Mini Office 2: Not a PALPROM carrier board but a larger ROM carrier containing 4x32K and TTL circuits to enable and page each ROM into 16K banks. Acornsoft Trilogy Emulator (PAL20R4) An unreleased product that combines the View family of ROMs into a single banked 64K ROM, using a PAL to perform 16K bank switches upon reads from the last 4 bytes of ROM space &BFFC to &BFFF. Only known example loaned by Stuart Swales. ***************************************************************************/ #include "emu.h" #include "pal.h" namespace { // ======================> bbc_pal_device class bbc_pal_device : public device_t, public device_bbc_rom_interface { protected: bbc_pal_device(const machine_config &mconfig, device_type type, const char *tag, device_t *owner, uint32_t clock) : device_t(mconfig, type, tag, owner, clock) , device_bbc_rom_interface(mconfig, *this) , m_bank(0) { } // device_t overrides virtual void device_start() override ATTR_COLD;
