The picture is a lot bigger than perhaps i explained (trying to keep things simple). Each board has a license code in its rom, and the controller software always checks the board during polling etc. I would have initially built something with a pic to do the driving etc, but then the whole software/license is another can of worms worth avoiding. Besides the above requirement, i would like to emulate 6809 or even Z80's in numerous legacy projects, believe it or not some people still use and enjoy that stuff, dont bag it !!!! Thanx for the opencores link, it's something in the right direction.
