Hello from Germany

Post by toms01 »

Hi,

my name is Thomas and I live in Hamburg.
I've been in the retro 8bit world for a while now and have been given some defective Falcon boards. I hope to be able to bring them back to life with your help. :)

Hello!
Hopefully we will see a post or two on your Fslcon projects. How many motherboards have you got?

Three. All black screen.
Two of them, however, with 8MHz clock / CPU not halted / BERR always high, GALs OK

I have already posted one here. At least it already shows a reaction with the diagnostics module. This one has 16MHz CPU clock.
Already ordered a few custom ICs from Best Electronics.

Thank you guys for your welcomes!
