PaulJ Progress
Re: PaulJ Progress
Power applied!!.. no joy. Board draws 1.05 amps and most things appear to be working. The big gotha is the halt line which is low. I don't have a monitor connected since I ordered the un-fu*k converter.. boards, not shipping until the 15th. I have the diagnostics cart and serial connected. Couple of garbage characters on power up. Encouraging that lots of stuff appear to be running or in the right state so I'm off to chase the halt signal. I may need to shit rig a video cable.
Re: PaulJ Progress
Sounding promising so far. I'd check the MMu and Glue and Rom chips and sockets for good contact for starters.
Oh and check you have good clock signals on the shifter, CPU, etc.
Most of the time I had the CPU halted it was because of a loose connection on the GLUE.

If it ain't broke, test it to Destruction.
Re: PaulJ Progress
All clocks look good... when I run TOS rom it halts quickly .. with the diag cart in it runs for ~sec.. going to check memory and acias..

Re: PaulJ Progress
That's more like it, well done.
Now to make sure everything else works and to post a pic or vid of your choice of game running

Re: PaulJ Progress
Guess I'm going to need to sh*t rig a video cable since the un-fu*kit boards will not show up for a couple weeks. Really helps when one uses good chips.

Great work - looks like we have 3 alive now.
Second Forgottenmyname's comment - get a pic or video of your game of choice once you have video.
Exxos you now have three babies out there, how many more will be born?
