Chip Uploading

(Mind) Uploading a Chip - Intro Styles of Reverse Engineering Chip emulation today (Industry vs Retrocomputing) Reverse engineering a chip 1. Test programs (non-destructive, software) 2. Hardware tracing (non-destructive, hardware) 3. Physical disassembly / decapping (destructive, hardware). The Chip Uploader In this article and the next few, we’ll be looking at a system we’ve been building. While it is far from complete, it would allow us to automatically capture the behavior of any digital circuit plugged into it.
