DKB Pal chips ? Know anything?
« on: April 29, 2011, 03:29:23 AM »
DKB shipped replacement Pal chips with their KwikStart boards. I have a KwikStart I but no Pal chip to go with it.

Here, Pal = programmable array logic. So it's not a thing I can find/buy, it is something they created, yes?

Ok, Have found some info, after tearing things apart again, argh.

It's a TIBPAL16L8-25CN and I just ordered a couple from Mouser so we will see.

Save, I have this other KwikStart I I'm playing around with, trying to figure if it works. But like I said above, I don't have an extra PAL chip to go with it.

So, I opened up the masterpiece A1000 to look at the one I do have, and learned the stuff above. And I'm not going to unsolder/move everything and risk things, if it has to be programmed anyways; just wasting my time.

So now what? Data sheet tells me it's a faster high performance PAL compatible with the ones on the daughter board etc. But they need to be programed I assume?

Where were you guys a day ago?:rolleyes:

I think mongo is probably right.

Ok, thanks guys. Getting it through my thick skull.

@Save missing Pal - well I don't know, probably still stuck on a daughter board somewhere. I got this thing with the Insider, and didn't care about it for a long time. Hmm, who did I buy this from...

I'm pretty darn sure it would work if it did have one.
