Description: An old Orbitel Transcoder Controller board using a MC68020RC16E clocked at 13Mhz. Just found it in the garage and I thought I'd let you folks here on amiga.org have a look. Theres also a pair of MC68230FN8 IC's on the board (The larger square plastic IC's). Any idea what function these chips perform? Hodgkinson.

For the "unknown" Motorola chips, did you tried http://www.freescale.com ? [edit] Nevermind. They don't have more data to the MC 68230. But I found it in Alldatasheet website! Is a parallel converter and timer. |
| Hodgkinson Posts:1080 | December 21, 2007, 04:40:37 PM My father and I reckon that these boards are probably from a GSM basestation, probably handling some digital cross-point switching, or they're digital frame-rate changers. They were part of a Racal designed island (Each basestation has its own frequency reference) communication system for GSM. Apart from that, we've got no further information on these boards.
