It is not possible to reverse engineer the AGA chipset by just knowing the input output vector. The AGA chipset is too complex and has too many internal states...
Hi, ... Correct, And it wouldnt have been the best way anyway, A few people started to work on an AGA replacment, The most known is the Boxer, It was to be 20X...
Hi, ... Oh well, As long as we get something as good... ... That will do. :) ... Impossible, Well thats negative istn it. Nothings impossible if you try. ... I...
Good Morning, The weather is so weird here in Kansas. This morning, if you didn't know any better, you would think you woke up in the middle of a typical...
Just subscribed to this group and thought I drop some info into the cooking pot. If you are going to interface the Coldfire to a PCI bus you're going to need...
... That's nice, but it never amounted to anything. ... Being fluent in VHDL and having some insight into what it takes to design a VLSI, especially with as...
Hi, ... It is here, Its great at the moment, I am getting toasted but 15 minutes ago it was tipping it down. ... Thats OK,It was great last week, Lots of sun...
Hello again, I've just been having a look at some of the older posts and it was mentioned that the accelerator would have 2Gb of RAM ias a possibility. I...
I think these chips (there are two if you use their RAM controller) were originally from a company called V3. It looked like an easy PCI interface but they...
Hi, ... Welcome to the list. ... Devices that fit the 5307 will work on the 5407 (v4), The main differences are that on the V3 a build in SDRam interface is ...
Hi, ... Why not, The Boxer almost made it, Commodore almost did it, All we have to do is finish the design, The person who made the AA+ chipset for the Boxer...
Hi, ... As standard it will have .5Gig but yes a 2Gb SDRam controler chip is available. ... No, And anyway we are connecting the SDRam to the CPU, It wont go ...
Hello Oli_HD ... My own point was not to limit the coldfire solutions expation options, but to make it compatible with current implimentations and in doing so...
... OK ... not sure if what I'm thinking of is actually a problem ... I understood that the memory map of the A3/4000 was divided up into 128Mb for the CPU...
Hi, ... I know, I would love to implement a Zorro 3 slot on the A2000 Coldfire board, It would give an instant way to upgrade the A2000 without the problems of...
Hi, ... It could be, I will have to check, The Zorro bus will have to access it for DMA, Its all things we have to work out. ... You are bringing up a few good...
Hello Oli_HD ... DCE are pulling out? half of me is quite suprised as I was of the understanding that they were working with several other companies on the ...
Hey Oli, I dunno if you'd seen this yet, but I found some decent chips on QuickLogic's site that might help out with both project phases. V380SDC - SDRAM...
DOH! This just reminded me that 5407 has the SDRAM interface built in... My bad, I was playing with the 68060. Well, at least I found a PCI controller :oP ... ...
Hi, ... Before people get worried they are just planning from what he said and I can see why, The Amiga one uses standard PCI bits, A CPU upgrade isnt needed...
Hi, ... The SDRam interface in the Coldfire can only support 512Meg of ram, External ones support 2Gig of ram so an external one may be a good idea and it may...
Both the V380SDC (sdram) and V292PBC (pci) have interrupt controllers built in. ... - Doc ... __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?...
Hello Oli_HD ... DCE deserve the bad rap from customers, I know of 8 people personally who have sent back faulty BlizzardPPC's and never heard from them again,...
Ya know, the more I ponder this project (phase2), the keener I become on AROS. It just seems infinitely easier to load CF68kLib in AROS, on a complete ColdFire...
Hi, ... I have had lots of problems with my Cyberstorm but lucky for me Powercomputing are so good, Thank god for them. Now my Cyberstorm is running great but...
Hi, ... The one quesiton is when to use it, We dont want to use it on the CPU upgrade but definatly on any motherboard we design. It would be nice to use Aros,...
With the speed of modern graphics chips, native Coldfire code and software AGA emulation the project will be much easier. BTW, just because there is a PCI...
I myself would like an AGA chipset on a PCI card that can be removed or added to any future motherboards to allow flexability. Those who do not wish to play...
Hello, I forgot to ask earlier, is there any technical information you require? I currently have the following: Schematics (in various forms), A500, A600,...
Hello, I was browsing through the Arrow Catalogue when I came across the following: Arrow Catalogue, 01279 626777 XCF5407FT162 Stock No. 516320D, 1+ Units...
