Anyone has good photos of 520STe's bottom pcb (c300779-001 REV 5.1) around ym, dma, u306, u307 section or maybe more up to date ste schematics than those in normal circulation?
Thanks,

as for "up to date" schematics, other than the usual scans that can be found, I did a conversion into Kicad last summer : https://github.com/sporniket/kicad-conv ... /tag/1.0.0

I used @sporniket's schematic when repairing Brett's STE, it's an invaluable resource and my job would have been a lot harder without it.nokturnal wrote: 28 Mar 2022 08:39 Thanks for help, I totally missed this motherboard category.

@sporniket I am wondering how much work would be involved in making something like this for Atari: https://www.amigapcb.org/sporniket wrote: 27 Mar 2022 21:13 as for "up to date" schematics, other than the usual scans that can be found, I did a conversion into Kicad last summer : https://github.com/sporniket/kicad-conv ... /tag/1.0.0
Perhaps some of the Amiga guys on this forum might know who runs it and whether the backend is open source, or even if they'd allow someone to use it for an Atari PCB site.

@steve the key element is indeed the toolset to generate the pcb explorer, and how much effort is required to get a similar explorer.
And then, there is the effort (time and cost) of setting up and maintaining of a dedicated website to take into account.
