A later design is now available: SC706

The module has the following features:

• Z80 CPU
• Crystal oscillator (7.3728 MHz)
• Optional 2nd crystal oscillator
• Optional 'can' style oscillator
• Power-up reset
• Voltage supervisor
• Compatible with RC2014-Z80 bus
• Works with 40-pin, 60-pin and 80-pin backplanes
• Extra functions when used with enhanced backplanes

Compatibility

This module conforms to the RCBus specification v1.0 for RCBus-2014 enhanced 39-pin long modules.

The printed circuit board outline conforms to the RC2014 standard for full height modules.

The module is compatible with all RC2014 backplanes, all RCBus-2014 backplanes (RC2014 compatible including SC100 series) and all full RCBus 80-pin backplanes (including SC700 series).

When used with a 40-pin backplane the pins in the second row are not connected. As a result the enhanced bus signals /RFSH, /BUSAK, /HALT, /BUSRQ, /WAIT and /NMI are not available. Most applications do not need these signals.

A similar design SC706 is also available. It is compatible with the RCBus, including the RC2014 standard 40-pin bus, the RC2014 enhanced 60-pin bus and the extended 80-pin RCBus.

The RCBus specification includes RCBus-2014 (both RC2014 standard 40-pin bus and RC2014 enhanced 60-pin bus) and also the full 80-pin RCBus. The 80-pin RCBus provides support for advanced Z80 features, such as the interrupt daisy-chain, as well as support for other processor families.

The Kit

This kit includes all the components needed to make the module, as shown in the first picture. Other modules and backplanes shown in the pictures are not included. You will require tools, solder, and cleaning materials to assemble this kit.

Printed Circuit Board

The printed circuit board is available on its own here.
