Title: High resolution Emulator II motherboard photos
Post by: kris92 on February 21, 2012, 05:58:25 AM
Hello,

I'm looking for great quality photos (full resolution) of an Emulator II CPU board. The best ones I found on the net were too noisy. If someone can help...

Thank you,

Kris

To put them in a frame and hang them on the walls  ;D  ?
Or are you going to clone the beast ?

Hello,

You are right, i'm thinking about a DIY Emulator II+. I got the pictures no the yahoo groups. Now I'm looking for the microcontroller PROMs dump. Without these PROMs, I will not try to start the job.

That's quite a challenge !
Are you sure all ICs are still available ?
And... won't that be a rather expensive Emulator II+ ? Given the price of ICs like SSM2045 and S3528 (times 8 !)

If you mean main and scanner PROMs, the binaries are available on the Yahoo group.
Or do you mean other proms ?

I Will replace 2045 with 2044 or why not CURTIS chips ;-)
Some ICs Will be hard to find. I will try to find the nearest ones.
About PROMs, there is effectively 2 more ICs used by the microcontroller.
