SIMM72 on scorpion

ZXNet echo conference «hardware.zx»

From Alexandr Sinyakov To All 17 December 2005

Hello, All I decided to hang it on SIMM72 for my memory scorpion (after all, 4 rulers of 4 meters each in each) and encountered the following: all the necessary legs are soldered as necessary, but the computer does not want to accept it, although it is known that the SIMM is working. Either my document is burned out, or what I heard about hyper-secret methods of protection on the scorpion - the truth. Regarding the first one, please check with knowledgeable people: ┌─- code ─── 1 GND 19 MA10 (GND) 50 D0 10 +5V 28 MA7 52 D1 12 MA0 30 +5V 54 D2 13 MA1 31 MA8 56 D3 14 MA2 32 MA9 (GND) 58 D4 15 MA3 39 GND 60 D5 16 MA4 42 CAS0/ 62 D6 17 MA5 45 RAS/ 64 D7 18 MA6 47 WE/ 72 GND └── code ─── There was also +5V on the 59th leg, but because of this everything was short-circuited, which is why it crept in I doubt that the document is blatantly lying to me. Regarding the second - what if SIMM is organized as memory above 256K, i.e. native Leave the memory, only CAS/share?

Hello jtn jtn> Block unused races and races. jtn> also, if the sim is >4mb then tricky addressing begins there, to be honest jtn> I forgot what the salt is... The effect is the same - at first there is a black screen, then something flashes on it and at the end stops at the “mattress” (it’s different all the time). jtn> p.s. Buffer ir22 I hope I didn’t forget? =) And if I send the data not immediately to the bus, but to MD0..7 (for 14 legs of all RU7, which are currently sleeping due to the lack of CAS on them) - a buffer is also needed or will we get by? PS: 5 volts on the 59th leg short to ground when the SIMM is inserted.

From Alexandr Sinyakov To All 17 December 2005

Hello jtn jtn> I have both GND and 5V connected this way. Are you sure the simm is alive? jtn> anyway, why all these troubles? 30 pin sims are easier to solder. I tried 4 pieces, and all with the same result. By the way, it was the same on SIMM30 the most (not short-circuited, of course)...

From jtn To All 17 December 2005

Hello, SAM style ITIC power, solder the buffer directly to the same IR22 that is the same on the board ir22, the current legs are the opposite: 2 and 3, 4 and 5, etc... on the 1st leg GND, on the 11th /WE with ru7

From jtn To All 17 December 2005

Hello, SAM style Well, if there is no buffer, who will write to the sim? SD doesn't care about him started SAM> PS: 5 volts on the 59th leg short to ground when the SIMM is inserted. I have both GND and 5V connected this way. Are you sure the sim is alive? In general, why all these troubles? It’s easier to solder 30 pin sims.

Hello Orionsoft Ori> I only have 16MB Sims, what's the problem with addressing? No ambushes, MA11 is also added there (on SIMM30 too). HERE [http://www.radiomaster.ru/spravka/hwb/connector/index5.php] I found two different simm72 pinouts. And how to determine which one based on external signs? mine?

If it is not connected to anything on your module, then you have module without ECC, if connected, then accordingly with ECC. Take the diagram accordingly inclusions.

Hello, SAM style in short, I don’t remember exactly, but it seems like if you put together the right circuit, then there’s no difference The data is going there normally (D0 D1 D2 D3 ...) or mixed up (D0 D16 D1 D17 ...) although what confuses me is that when in one type of SIM cards on some contacts parity, and in the second on the same data. search on aminet (www.aminet.net) for connecting FAST memory to the A500. it seems like it was perpendicular to that diagram which SIM cards to poke (lvd will correct if I'm wrong)

From Slavik Tretiak To All 20 December 2005

Hello, lvd As a last resort, you can use the memory as 32-bit, and allocate the required 8 bits handles multiplexers. really funny ^_~ Well, or if such troubles start, then look for normal memory ^_~

Hello, SAM style SAM> As for the second - what if SIMM is organized as memory above 256K SAM> that is, leave the native memory, only CAS / share? I expanded my scorpion to 1 meter, though not with sims, but with hands (41256 some). He soldered himself with sandwiches on top, KAS gave it to ID4 and distributed it to 4 rulers. Well, there’s the management of this ID, that’s all. The only thing I had to cheat with the RC chain, which makes the RAS so that it works stably in the turbo. Since then I've been running tests - everything is OK.

Sin> it seems like it was perpendicular to that diagram which SIM cards to poke (lvd Sin> correct me if I'm wrong) There are problems with sims. Which do not affect operation in 32-bit mode, but are reflected in operation in 16 and 8 bit modes when data pins are parallelized. Smoking here: http://groups.google.com/group/fido7.ru.amiga/browse_thread/thread/5f268fa04e31 23f3/3db50277ba36fa35?lnk=st&q=zx.spectrum+vadik+akimoff+SIMM&rnum=5#3db50277ba 36fa35 I came across this when I soldered 2 meters of chipram to an Amiga600 - it needs to go there 16-bit drama, well, I stupidly parallelized D0-D15 with D16-D31. What happened - there written. I had to trace the data to m/sx and resolder it.

From lvd To All 21 December 2005

Hello, serg.ne@ ser> Has anyone tried a separate megabyte sdram chip ser> use instead of sims, etc. ??? No. SDRAM and DRAM are very different things (kuri datye shyty). Combine together It just doesn't make sense.
