ST-IDE-ROM Dev Board v1 - BETA Testers

Oh, in that case I'm also interested in two units! Did you reroute the fix we made underneath, on the original, as well? It seems you routed the resistor/capacitor stuff on the board instead of the pins for select 1/2. Very nice!

Yep, all fixes done.

I'm going to try and Compact the original board down in size a little bit.. I'm sure it icky won't mind me trashing his layout :lol: :twisted: I have also decided to go with the 2.5" header this time, so we should make using the CF adapters a lot easier this time around.

Cool, the full size IDE interface is a bit of a pain.

Don't mind. :) Am too busy plotting to take over the world :twisted: Now where is that clone machine we've been working on.

I gave up trying to take over the world, trying to keep ownership of my own free space is difficult enough :lol: :roll:


I have been working on it all day..And still working on it, I got pretty far then decided to start again and make it even smaller, which resulted in some major rework.. Now I just seem to be creeping around the board moving stuff about trying to get it to all fit without breaking the power planes too much..

It fits in a mega1-4 fine but you can't put the lid on (not that that's a big deal) because a support post hits the jumpers just above the eprom in your photo. If you moved the jumper and had no board above the eprom you could get the lid on. Just an idea.. your most likely to far alone to change. :idea:

Can you post a image of what you mean.. if its the left side of the board, ive not routed that yet.

@exxos , as you can see the top support comes down to the hole which is almost split by the side of the card. The hole is a little more toward the board in real life but I maximized the camera angle to show the hole the support comes down to.

Support is a little larger than the hole.

This is as much space as I can give it..

Its now almost done, I am having a lot of problems with the power planes getting broken now tho :roll: I should have it all fixed up within the next couple of hours I think :)
