I am proud to present the availability of a lot of I/O functionality
for the C64 expansion port! I have now designed, built and tested the
CS/A bus adaptor for the C64 that makes a lot of CS/A cards available
for the C64:
- fast serial (UART) interface
- WD1770 PC-style floppy interface
- infrared interface (from the Gecko)
- additional video card
- IEEE488
...
and last but not least:
- the long awaited SCSI harddisk interface for the C64!
-----------------------------------------------------
(I admit I have only tested it with the SCSI interface, but it should
run with the other CS/A cards as well... - it works with SCSI!)
On the Adapter homepage
http://www.tu-chemnitz.de/~fachat/8bit/c64/csa/index.html
you find the schematics, the description and the parts list of the
adapter. Also there is a "cookbook" example on how to "implode"
the adapter with a normal CS/A I/O card - as example the SCSI
board is used (this is untested. D*mn, the adapter schematics
worked right out of the box, so why bother checking my schematics....)
resulting in a single C64 SCSI interface.
The description, schematics and driver (also for the C64!) of the
SCSI interface can be found in
http://www.tu-chemnitz.de/~fachat/8bit/hardware/csa/index.html
(you have to scroll down to the I/O cards to find the SCSI interface.)
The adapter is also an example on how to adapt the CS/A bus to
other 6502-based computers, like the VIC or the PET for example.
Have fun!
