REV 3 - REV 5 - The beginning (ST536)

[exxos]

This is the last thing I see on the scope as it freezes...

Again the top yellow wave is ST_DTACK, bottom blue is ST_AS.....As to whether or not this is just coincidence or not I have no idea...

EDIT:

Another shot before it locked up, is where ST_AS is going low when I don't think it should be as DTACK is high the entire time...

Now the programmer seems to have started being sulky again..

You know that card worked almost first time out of the gate for me.. and i went Meh... and put it in a drawer for almost a year?

It's the SDRAM module upsetting things somehow, everything else basically works fine.

I have that working on 5 different designs of my boards and another person has the firmware code running perfectly on a completely new amiga motherboard. Do you have all the correct settings from my makefiles set in the fitter and synth? i.e. termination types/speeds etc. otherwise it will not work.

I checked the settings you sent, pretty much all those are default anyway, I made some changes on the different ones but did not make any difference.

Finally looking how things are supposed to be

When high it is either accessing ROM or TTRAM... If it is pulsing low, it is accessing the ST bus.. which is not all that often now

The big ones are keepio, slew rate and termination mode... if its set to KEEPER it will break (long thread here about that)

I've never seen that menu... You need to pick in from the left menu otherwise its only implemented strategically when exhaustive fitting
