The RETRO-EP4CE15 card has 1MB of SRAM on the card. The SRAM is in (2) 8KB windows with 64 banks in each window.

I wrote a test routine that writes ramp values to the SRAM and verifies it works.

The test program prints:

S0++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
 1+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++D

Where:

Hit a key at end to avoid resetting the Serial port until done. 

Jumps back to SmithBUG when done.

Takes ~2 secs to run with 25MHz ROM/Internal SRAM and 16.7 MHz for External SRAM.

Assembled using A68 assembler

"..\..\A68 6800 Assembler\a68.exe" XRAMTEST.ASM -l XRAMTEST.LST -s XRAMTEST.SRE
