Didn't have a dead LS629 yet either, so it's just to be sure. Also, the 74LS629 ist, according to the datasheet, similiar to the 74LS124 (maybe only different pinout?). Might be possible to get that working in a C64. > I take 8701 is gone together with CSG or is there some kind of replacement available? Or is it another candidate to be placed inside FPGA? The 8701 was MOS/CSG only. Sometimes you can find them cheaply on ebay. It should be easy to come up with a circuit that does the same thing, take the crystal clock and divide by 2.25 (for PAL). The 8701 does that by doubling and then dividing by 4.5 (PAL). Gerrit Message was sent through the cbm-hackers mailing listReceived on 2012-09-02 17:00:04
