Acorn Electron Android Emulator
Acorn electron android emulator Continue ElectrEm is the Acorn Electron emulator, an 8bit microcomputer first launched in 1983, which was once the fourth best-selling on the UK market. Although sold as compatible with BBC Micro, the only common component is the 6502 processor. All other compatibility is achieved with a well-documented firmware interface to customize the graphics mode, generate sound, and input the keyboard/joystick. While the number of programs that directly use electron hardware is enough to be incompatible with the BBC's small, Electron is subject to variable bus speeds, making most Electron software run at the wrong speed at the BBC and making the implementation of emulation based on the existing BBC emulator or almost any other 6502 emulation code impractical, if not impossible. ElectrEm strives for first-class simplicity. In general, it is enough to point the emulator on the image of the tape or disk, and it automatically adjusted the emulation equipment in a compatible form, and then will run the program contained in the image. The first phase of significant work on ElectrEm took place between 2000 and 2002. This codebase is now known as electrEm Classic and has been ported to Windows, DOS and Linux, supporting a wide range of graphics release libraries including Allegro, SVGALib, GGI, SDL and DirectX. For personal reasons, there was a break in development. By 2002, a number of problems with the architectural design of the emulator had become apparent. So began a new codebase, which is now called ElectrEm Future. This is actually a re-overlay, so it lacks a lot of testing and still lacks some functionality of the old code.
