A3640 rev 3.2 question
« on: July 19, 2006, 09:30:27 PM »
Other than having the latest version of the U209 PAL chip, does rev 3.2 A3640 have the capacitors oriented in the right way, or does it have the same manufacturing error as 3.0 and 3.1 revs?

Thanks for the replies guys. To be honest, I'm not sure if all 3.2 A3640 cards came with correctly installed capacitors. Look at this picture of a 3.2 card (taken from Amiga Hardware Database site):

Some capacitors look OK and some are oriented incorrectly. :-?

3.1 is printed on the PCB for 3.2 cards as well. The only difference between them is the updated PAL/GAL chip.
