I just wanted to say again what great work mb-audit is. By doing detailed
tests on actual hardware, and then getting emulators to match, is the best
way to ensure emulators are doing the right thing. It's tedious work, and
I wanted to say how much I appreciate it. And then, most importantly,
release it so others can use it.

The 6522 documentation is good, but it's not great, so mb-audit answers so
many questions I had.

Hi Kent,

Thanks for your appreciative comments!
Here is v0.8 which includes updates for your two requests for 6522 test-1 (ie. to add a timeout and use a longer Timer1 period of $404):
https://github.com/tomcw/mb-audit/releases/tag/v0.8

And Johnson: this version hopefully will work better with your 'SD Music Deluxe' card.
Let me know how it performs.

Thanks for adding support, still said fail to detect 6522, need Ian Kim talk a bit hardware info, see photo.

Thanks Johnson - it is now finding the 6522, but this time test number $14 is failing.

From my code it looks like there's a timeout in waiting for all 4 interrupts to trigger (ie. 2 interrupts from 6522-A and 2 from 6522-B). But on my real hardware (Mockingboard C and Phasor cards) both pass this test OK.

Above (14th June) you said "the card is using W65C22S (PLCC)", so potentially this real 6522 differs slightly to my real cards' 6522s? Except I built my MB-C card with two W65C22S (DIP-40) and added the extra hardware modification to make the IRQs work.

So maybe talk to Ian Kim and see what he says.
FYI, the code for the failing test starts here:
https://github.com/tomcw/mb-audit/blob/bb1a49e702fb01ace5de7937037a2e067899524d/chip-6522.a#L2471

Ah, ignore me! Your card only has one 6522 (not two) - this test assumes the card has 2x 6522's.
So I need to update the test to also support the single-6522 case.

Hi Tom,

Seems the program can make a tone and got the info. correctly, thanks a lot.

Thanks Johnson - good to get these tests working with your card.
