ROMv5a - Intel hex file required

EDIT - problem solved.

I found an online utility that took the binary file and spat it out in the correct Intel hex format

:100000000000188018C0C17C0001D60100FF690003

I am trying to emulate the Gigatron on a hardware simulator.

I need the ROM contents as a 16-bit, word addressed intel hex format.

Unfortunately my bin2hex utility seems to convert it to a byte addressed format so the addresses are twice what they should be.

Are there options for bin2hex to choose a word format?

This is the current output - note how the addresses increase by 20H whilst I think it should be 10H

Code: Select all

Could someone point me to a suitable conversion utility or a source of the ROM in the correct format.

Thanks
