Post by XavSnap »

HI,

After the MaxIO INPUT project.

Let's go to the second driver card ...

Drive by the OUT $2F(card selector) and OUT $3F (data feed on selected card) IORQ port.
5v external supply for the slave cards (5v from the ZX not used).

ZX81-Ts100-TS1500-ZX SPECTRUM user friendly.

Hi,
The link PCB released 1.1:

Only the pin 20 link was added.

This one works on both projects INPUT & OUTPUT.

On the last release from the input project, you had to short-cut this pin 20 to make it work.

Hi,

If you are interested in PC Centronics or RS232C interfaces, have a look to this link:

http://abandon.pcbs.free.fr/interfacespc.htm

from
https://www.abandonware-magazines.org/a ... 403&page=1

I'am working on the issue 1 (RS232 and Centronics IO port)
(French magazines)

Have fun....
Xavier.
