From Ivan Shishkin To All 22 January 2007

Hello, All I decided to expand L-1 or L-2 to 1Mb. On SIMM. Expansion schemes came across several. Those. looking at the Pentagon1024SL, an expansion scheme based on scheme 512 from V.M.G., found it difficult to choose. In the first case, also reading ports extensions are used. Is it necessary? In the second case, the scheme is based on unknown to me expansion scheme to 128, not the one in the ZX-Review. Where look at this "other" diagram 128?

From Ivan Shishkin To All 22 January 2007

Hello, Mikka_A Yes, the second scheme is the same one that Caro converted to word for you. It says: > Leningrad modification "memory expansion up to 128k". > This means exactly the one in which CAS is managed > using KP11 and LA3. The only diagram (without any 556PT4) that I know is in the ZX-Review, which I once used several times. There KP11 and LL1 on CAS are used. From the attached archive: > * it is recommended to apply for the 15th leg of KP11 (upgrade to 128K) > the ground, having first freed it (the leg) from H1 > * it is recommended to remove resistors from the 9th and 12th legs of the same KP11. In the zx-review on the 15th leg it’s the ground, not H1. And on legs 9 and 12 there are no resistors. So I’m asking, what kind of circuit is there for 128? :v2_blink; Ha; I'm attaching both archives just in case, even though they flew by here.

You've got me in trouble... you'll have to go to the old apartment, dig out your spec 128 with beta, and look at what is collected there. but it seems like from memory you’re right - that circuit is for 556PT4.... but I'll take a look when I get the chance...

Here is a diagram for expanding my Leningrad-1 to 1024kb on port #7ffd, as well as in lotion scheme such as 512 pixel mode, color per byte, etc. Well, in general, you’ll figure it out. That’s all I have works great now several years. I also have an IDE controller on this computer according to the HEMO scheme and turboFM.

From Ivan Shishkin To All 2 February 2007

Hello, p@lex Thank you very much! For the first time I see a diagram that shows everything as a whole, and not several small "fixes". Respect. I also had a question: what is “SL” (aka “SL”) in the designation that Pentagon, what in this case is Leningrad?

The entire circuit is mine own development. Everything has been tested and works great.

SL indicates the presence of ZX-BUS slots (in my Pentagon), and in Leningrad - I have no idea.

From Alexander Pekhimenko To All 4 February 2007

Hello KingOfEvil Kin> SL denotes the presence of ZX-BUS slots (in my Pentagon), and in Kin> Leningrad - I have no idea. My Leningrad also has a system bus. I have 4 slots. Address bus buffered. But there is no data bus. This can be seen from my diagram. Nevertheless, these slots I have enough data without buffering. The slots are used as follows way: 1-disk drive controller, 2-IDE controller, 3-Campston mouse, 4-sounddrive 1.51+ or under the prosko programmer.
