We were supposedly “neutral” in WWII.

Time for a bath. I forgot to add R2 at this stage. Will I need R2 for programming the CPLDs?

Both CPLD’s, the LM1117 voltage regulator and the 6 pin header should be enough for the programmer. It worked for me.

Great! It’s drying right now, so I’ll start setting up for the programming tomorrow. Then we’ll see if the CPLDs are legit or not :)

No. JTAG. Chain. Found.

It might have been a good idea to buy a new CPLD instead of using the one with the crooked legs after all ;)

Tried resoldering some of the pins... Or rather sides. With a K-tip :dualthumbup: We'll see tomorrow how that panned out.

Good luck Kludge, what are you using to program the CPLD's with? Is it destined for an Amiga or an Atari?

Thanks! I’m using a Raspberry Pi 2 to program. The plan is to put the 530 in an Amiga. Fanboy and all that ;)

Have a 530 to destined for a mega but not building yet until I come up with a TOS 2.06 solution. Also planning on using a raspberry to program the CPLD's so I'll be following your progress. Good luck!

...or my lack thereof. Worst case I’ll have to replace the CPLDs, and I won’t order new ones until I’m ready to pull the trigger on CPLDs and RAM for TF534 as well. :)
