The U7 socket on the Microprofessor MPF-1 is usually occupied by a 2716 EPROM containing user programs (or Tiny BASIC). However, by cutting a few PCB traces and setting the J1 jumper accordingly, it can also accommodate an additional 2 KBs of memory, using a 2nd 6116 SRAM. Hence, PicoRAM 6116 can be used instead of a standard 2716 user EPROM in U7. I got a couple of programs in a 2716 EPROM BIN image from the user DISCMIX on the German Classic Computing (Vintage Computer) Forum. In this video we are running his programs via PicoRAM 6116, and I also demonstrate how to convert EPROM BIN images such as the ones I got from DISCMIX into a PicoRAM digestible HEX format.
