My eye has been drawn to the Mega ST's expansion bus of late.

I was reading the scanned documentation which makes reference to the physical dimensions "see figure 1/2".

Sadly figures 1 and 2 did not make it to the scan.

Does anyone know a reference for the mechanical drawings of a card suitable for fitting in the megabus slot, or is it a case of getting my ruler out?

Ta,

Judging by the existing cards, you only need to pay attention to the battery slot and the pillars supporting the case.

It seems ideal for a Riebl card
but one like Maxon will also fit.

Thanks @artik-wroc,

I was thinking in terms of height offset from the socket and the alignment needed for supports and the rear hatch.

I can do it by inspection from a 'Sound Acclerator' board I have, but I was hoping for some proper numbers off the drawings.

Cheers,

BW

The latest Megabus card to be manufactured is the ATW800/2 (2024) so I could imagine you could ask them?
