Made Zynq board that plugs into Unibus of an 11/34. It takes place of console board (or works alongside existing console board) and can function as memory (fills in missing memory up to 124KW), disks (RL01/2, RP04/6), tape (TU10), ethernet (DELUA), lineclock (KW-11), paper tape (PC-11), console (KY-11 as well as 777570 lights & switches), console terminal (DL-11) and multiplexer (DZ-11).

Processor can be controlled with TCL scripts or use the GUI screen for switch-and-light control.

The only thing that makes it 11/34 specific are the two halt lines, otherwise it is just a standard SPC slot board that uses the NPR/NPG (DMA) lines. Haven't tested it on anything else though.

The ARM part of the Zynq runs Raspian OS, running mostly C++ code and TCL scripts that interface with the FPGA code written in Verilog. The GUI is a Java Swing program running on the Zynq.
