New Amiga 2000 Rev 6.2 Boards!

[magnetic]

Now that is cool! I wish i could solder like Acill

[Grega]

did this get any legs/get anywhere?
only reason i ask is i'mg going to start putting the components into eagle to build these boards.

[Jeff]

I would like at least one of these. Are they available somewhere, or the gerbers?

Neat!  But why didn't they go the whole hog and make them 6.5?  Latest & greatest, and all that...

My guess is it's the 6.2 fixes that "mattered" and so they sensibly decided to incorporate up to that level on the PCB.

Indeed, it seems:
6.3 boards just  bring ECS Denise and KS 2.04
6.4 - 6.5 boards support the 8375 Vbb replacement Agnus for the older 8372A (they still got it wrong on 6.4 and had to rework, 6.5 was probably a correction to the "correction").

So 6.3 is a cosmetic and 6.4 - 6.5 an undesirable difference, as the vast majority of Agnii out there (either as working motherboard pulls or individually available chips) is the 8372A (318069-029) and not the Vbb 8375 1 MB replacement (318069-16/17).

Hence the 6.2 rework level.

I am glad someone has done it.

Maybe, you just have to jump through about 30 hoops of fire and spend six hours registering on A1k to find out...  lol, ugh.  :lol:  :angry:

[EugeneNine]

I started redrawing the a2k schematic in KiCad to see if I could make a board someday but if its already been done..

[gary2000]

That is good, but an A4000D seems like it would be more in demand and one that I would buy.  Maybe someday.

Actually, an Amiga 4000 reworked to fit in a standard ATX case would be the cat's meow!

I'd second that, especial in a compact mid-tower or better yet, an MATX case.
With an ATX power supply connector.

If wishes were fishes, right guys? :laughing:

As in the past done with the A4000T selfmade-Project, I think you will get the board and the barts in one lot..... or you can unsolder them from defektive boards.....

Oh thats no fun..lol... would be great if it was a kit..
