FPGA Replay Case

[espskog]

The daughter board is being driven by Jakub, but if it all works out then it may only be available with a socket - unless I can find a big stack of 060s.

I have made some investigation into an FPGA module which fits the pinout of an 060 to allow a "turbo" softcore. I can't imagine at this point emulating a full 68060, more of a very fast 020.

In regards to the Core, would you say that the curent softcore of the replay board is below, the same or better than the current MiniMig core when it comes to compatibility ?

Today I received my FPGAArcade board (thanks Mike)...
So I can start designing the case...
Any sugestions for the engraving on top of the case ??, it's now time to say so...

Yesterday I got my board aswell. When you design a case for it, can you take into consideration the daughterboard aswell so we can add this when it is
released ? Either by simply having enough space over the uppermost connectors, or add the connector-holes in the plastic if you get the right dimensions from Jakub or Mike ?

Hi. Here is VERY cheap but good looking designed MiniITX case in plastic.

It is easy to dremel it into your needs since it's all plastic. It is quite small. I have the same (but in metal) for my MiniMig V2.0 ITX 17x17cm board. It has a small pushbutton in the frint with a LED inside for illumination. (e.g. use it for DF0 or powerindicator).

The price is very good aswell!!!

For FPGA replay use, I plan on just chopping it in half and slicing off about 6-7 cm and glueing it back together to that its depth is more like 10-12 cm so it does not have so much unused space inside.
