NOTE:

WIP:
- 0.145: Truco-Tron reverse engineering [Roberto Fresca]: Identified and added EF6821P PIA for I/O. Identified and added the CRTC as HD/UM6845. Identified a Maxim MAX691 and hooked watchdog/reset functions based on the PIA line where is tied. Also hooked others minor related things. Identified a Darlington Array ULN2003. Added correct clocks for main crystal, CPU and CRTC through #define. Improved inputs/jumpers with PCB traces. Added technical notes. Added dipswitches 'IN0-1 (P2 START)', 'IN0-2 (SERVICE SW)', 'IN0-3 (P2 SELECT)', 'IN0-4 (COIN2)' and 'IN0-5 (TILT SW)'.
- 1st February 2012: Roberto Fresca - Just was tired of 'guessing' this hardware and started a very deep reverse engineering. Some comments from a supposed coauthor or just from the creation team, put me to work. All the PCB IC's were originarily scratched in a perfect way to avoid any identification.
- 0.124u5: Andrew Gardner merged memory maps for Truco-Tron.
- 0.78u1: DAC sound in Truco-Tron [Tomasz Slanina]. Changed M6809 CPU1 clock speed to 750000 Hz and added DAC sound.
- 0.68: Ernesto Corvi added Truco-Tron (Playtronic SRL 198?).
- 11th April 2003: Ernesto Corvi sent in a driver for TrucoTron, it works fine except the sound is not emulated.
- 19th August 1999: Robbie dumped Truco-Tron.
