Don't worry I'm not connecting or enabling the UBE chip, I just noticed that TS was bridged, which according to the installation instructions could blow the UBE chip. I just mentioned it in the blog in case it was relevent to the floppy issues.AtariFox wrote: ↑Tue Sep 08, 2020 3:28 amThe UBE chip isnt used nor connected.Steve wrote: ↑Mon Sep 07, 2020 2:39 pm
One small anomaly I just noticed is this: On the STFM KIT DUAL TOS kit that is installed (with ube chip) The ube has not been connected to pin 16 of CPU, the bank select jumper is on bk2, but TS is bridged! Which according to your instructions, could mean the ube chip is damaged. I know this probably has nothing to do with the floppy. But I might unsolder the TS blob, and test the other TOS bank.
It reads ToS 1.04 and has done since i first got the upgrade, i' have not needed to mess with it as i just want it to run 1.04 and i just switch the jumper if i want tos 1.02.
So you think i must have done something to the DMA chip? I can't believe I caused so much of an issue with just the soldering thing i messed up with.
I must have really buggered up something for it to need all this.
As for the DMA chip pull-ups, reason I did this is because the DMA is intrinsic for floppy and ASCI operations, and on this forum it has helped others with similar issues in the past.
