Title: A570 / CDTV SCSI module schematics & resources
Post by: Zetr0 on May 03, 2013, 01:32:41 PM

Hello my fellow forum chumies,

I am on the hunt for schematics and any resources to make / manufacture the CDTV / A570 SCSI module.

Since I have both of the above, the idea is to make a small (CHEAP) production run =)

Any help would be appreciated.


Thanks for reading

Z.

An IDE version of the controller for CDTV would be preferred as it is easier to put Cf cards in it... you can even make the controller with cf adapter onboard...
just my 2 cent.... :D

Looking at the A570 / CDTV and A590 schematics, it is very obvious how the WD33C93 is connected to the expansion connector, but every A570/CDTV SCSI module I've seen also contains a GAL that I have no idea what it is used for.

You might want to try and see if you can get in contact with this guy.  http://xoomer.virgilio.it/fmiapa/cdtvinfopageen.html

Have you contacted Amiga engineer Carl Sassenrath for help?

Carl Sassenrath was a software developer. Dave Haynie is more likely to know about the hardware
