You don't want USB, Ethernet, extra RAM and the RTC?


Sure I want one, I have the 060 on my desk for the daughterboard :-)
So two variations of the daughterboard will be fine one with and one without cpu
Why buy a other CPU when you have them @home on the shelf

And more RAM?  Yes please !! But I want to know much RAM is on the daughterboard :-)

AlexH "MC68060RC50, with the Mask 1E41J." are the ones to go for apparently..
Overclock and run cool.
I'll make some inquries in China next time I am there, they probably have buckets of them hidden away.

I'm trying and failing to find a post I think from AlexH about having some laying around. The 060s I see on Ebay today look like "working" pulls and all seem to be in China. There's RC60s now too which I find interesting, back when I was looking for one some years ago there wasn't an RC60, only an RC50. I'd definitely only go with an RC part whichever one, I definitely don't want to leave out any features. :)

Ah, sorry - you and Gulliver are talking about the daughterboard!  My mistake, I thought Gulliver wanted an empty socket on the main board.  Yes, I can see the logic in supplying the daughterboard minus the CPU for those with spare chips.

Yes we were talking about the daughterboard. :)

Yep, sorry about that.  I could try and claim that Welsh is my native language, but that would be a poor excuse.  :D

I'd love specs on the daughtercard as well.  I'll buy one of these in a heartbeat if I can run my BBS on it - needless to say the Ethernet option has me very interested.

Make a daughterboard with another FPGA. Load 68060 softcore. Then we don't need to source any unobtainium ;)

Just a small update: I've been able to get the 060 to run with a special monitor software. :) The next step is to design a dynamic bus sizing module to interface the CPU to the internal 16-bit bus of the Minimig core.

Nice work!! Is that the 060 from the Axx card I sent ? Is Q4 an approximate release-date ?

Let's see if the base board actually becomes available first ;)

What sort of arcade platforms could this board conceivably recreate?
Would something like CPS1 or System-16 be out of the question?

Lots of my questions about the daughter card are answered by MikeJ & Yaqube over on EAB at this: http://eab.abime.net/showthread.php?p=744483#post744483 link.

@freqmax,

Do you doubt that this project will be released?

I would think that the frequency and amount of information, including videos of the prototype running an AGA Workbench would have satisfied even the most skeptical members here.

Thank you much for the link, Amigadave.

Stoked on getting one of these to run the BBS.
