Janus Atari ST Emulator
Posted: Thu May 02, 2019 11:01 am
I was reminded of the Janus ISA card that contained a 68000, some RAM, and an MFP on a 16 bit ISA card. The card made it possible to run TOS using a 386 PC as a host providing graphics and input.

From a quick glance at images of the board it looks to me the supporting logic is mostly built out of 74xx series chips (plus 4 GALs). Could this be a good start for a modern remake of the board? Does anyone have high rez images of both sides of the board or even schematics? I looked at the library section of this forum and dev-docs.org, but could only locate installation manuals.
Edit: The DMA I originally assumed was there was actually a MC68901 MFP
Edit 2: Counted the number of GALs to 4
