--- Quote from: SiliconWizard on December 09, 2024, 01:09:29 am ---That took work definitely and a fair bit of "reverse-engineering". But it is cheap and pretty powerful, and still has enough documented (even if it's sparse and requires a lot of work) to be able to use it baremetal (which was not the intent of the guys who make it available to the public), so that's still a pretty positive point. Try doing that with any kind of typical SBC out there.

Are you publishing the consolidated information anywhere?

I'm considering that, just have to find enough time.

Don't talk to me about SBC documentation, it's a sore point for me  :o :o :o

Saving my ELTK, 2x68060 VME-board with hw mailbox and hw semaphores, from the hydraulic press cost me only two bottles of good red wine to make the guys paid to destroy those boards turn a blind eye. Officially they didn't see me saving that board, officially the company that commissioned the "cleaning" of the lab knows that it was destroyed.

However, documentation was a bloody sore point, because they had already destroyed everything before I was able to save anything, and there is literally nothing on the web.

This type of boards have also been used in industrial sewing machines and also in other fields, very old stuff, the early 90s was modern-era, when people didn't use to upload anything as big as a scan of several books, also because of the cost of uploading.

If you send me the notes, I could try to find some time to turn it into English.
