Hi,
I have this SYS68k/CPU-6A rev 4.4 board. It uses VMEBus.
Can I make a computer out of it? And connect through serial port to it?
If I can power it on and make terminal only computer, it's still something.
I have no idea what OS can run on it.
Specification:
• 68000 CPU ( 8MHz) on CPU-6 68000 CPU (12,5MHz) on CPU-6A 68010 CPU (12,5MHz) on CPU-6VN6VB
• 512 Kbyte of dynamic RAM o Wait States at 8MHz 1 Wait State at 12,5MHz Distributed hardware refresh every 15us
• 4 EPROM sockets provide 256 Kbyte space
• 3 serial communication ports (RS232 compatible)
• Parallel I/O interface to P2 connector
• Real Time Clock with on-board battery back-up
• 24-bit timer with 5-bit prescaler
• Local interrupt service via auto-vectoring
• Fully VMEbus IEEE 1014 standard compatible
• RESET and ABORT function switches
• Double Eurocard from factor
• Powerful real time Monitor/Debugger VMEPROM on board
• PDOS' Real Time Operating System optionally available
• Fully software and I/O signal compatible to the SYS68K1CPU-1 B series
