exxos IDE interface (untested)
Re: exxos IDE interface (untested)
Looks awesome! Great work! How much space does the board require? Will it still be possible to use the internal keyboard in its regular position?

This is just a test board for us to beta test. Likely a final board will be smaller.dhedberg wrote: Tue Feb 12, 2019 9:54 am Looks awesome! Great work! How much space does the board require? Will it still be possible to use the internal keyboard in its regular position?

Re: exxos IDE interface (untested)
Also volunteering to be a guinea pig, I have a couple of boards that would be ideal for testing this.
Collector of many retro things!
800XL and 65XE both with Ultimate1MB,VBXL/XE & PokeyMax, SIDE3, SDrive Max, 2x 1010 cassette, 2x 1050 one with Happy mod, 3x 2600 Jr, 7800 and Lynx II
Approx 20 STs, including a 520 STM, 520 STFMs, 3x Mega ST, MSTE & 2x 32 Mhz boosted STEs
Plus the rest, totalling around 50 machines including a QL, 3x BBC Model B, Electron, Spectrums, ZX81 etc...

I recognise that design
Re: exxos IDE interface (untested)
Lots of pins to solder
If it ain't broke, test it to Destruction.
Re: exxos IDE interface (untested)
I can smell the solder already.

Re: exxos IDE interface (untested)
Exxos, any chance you'd sell it as parts. Ever since I've got the microscope and started to examine existing boards I'd really like to avoid anything made with lead free solder. Just a thought.. 
Re: exxos IDE interface (untested)
This is just a prototype, it's not a production board. We are a long way off that yet. We will need to do another couple of revisions as well. We have not even finished finalising the firmware , or even tested various cards, this is pretty much only the start of the project.
