Re: TF1260 stuff
A kludge is a workaround or quick-and-dirty solution that is clumsy, inelegant, inefficient, difficult to extend and hard to maintain.

Re: TF1260 stuff
Thank you for the explanation, Stephen. I weep that I will never have the opportunity to assemble one myself...terriblefire wrote: Tue Mar 02, 2021 9:23 amAll the passives are on the bottom of the board for 2 reasons.obitus1990 wrote: Sat Feb 27, 2021 1:24 pm Amazing! I can't get over how few components there are compared to cards available in the 1990s (at least what is visible on the top (?) side of the cards in the photos). Well done!
1. Every possible component i can get on the bottom I can get pre-assembled.
2. You can get the components closer to the power pins of the larger chips that way and improve the effectiveness of them.
It looks like there are no passives but there are about 90 on the board.
Re: TF1260 stuff
Without sounding stupid, is it possible to buy a TF1260 with or without cpu?
I have a spare Rev 5 060 that I’ve been holding onto with hopes that that the tf1260 would be released.

Re: TF1260 stuff
Seems some good guys already revealed themselves, hehe.
I am, personally, totlly impressed by the thin soldering...
I can only imagine that requires microscope for assembly!
Congratulation for this masterpiece, boss.

Re: TF1260 stuff
ok, so a set of 3.1 roms programmed into a pair of chris morley's excellent boobip 27c400 emuroms and my TF1260 is up and running nicely 
80mhz passive and not a problem so far
time to pop a heatsink and fan onto it and see how far she'll go
Thanks to Chucky for vouching for me, thanks to Mark for making up the board, and many thanks indeed to Stephen for this excellent bit of kit.
