Amiga 500 - A314 Raspberry Pi Co-Processor Accelerator PCB- 4-Layer ENIG Board
Ebay sells a blank board.

I saw an interesting device on the web for the A500.

Here is a GIT link.
https://github.com/niklasekstrom/a314

Any here used this?

I do not know if some one has demonstrated it on youtube yet.
I would like to see how it performs.

It's a good concept but it can only write to chipram and doesn't have access to fastram so it's a bit limited.
Life begins at 100 MIPS!


Nice Ports on AmiNet!

It is also limited by requiring an A500. I don't really imagine any use of it in this machine.

I guess a program on the Amiga Side would have to pass data from Chip to Fast Ram.
Possible?
