Hi,
I'm very happy to tell you that THIS DAY, your CT60 is on the way to you !
The package is :
- CT60
- FAN to be connected on the CT60 (connector near the corner of the 060).
- IF YOU SOLDER : Ribbon cable, 1x 68 ohms resistor, 3x 33 ohms resistors SMT For the moment, remember you need :- SDRAM DIMM PC133 (or 100) 64 to 512 MB (SEE the WEB SITE for compatibility !).- ATX POWER SUPPLY + PUSH BUTTON (not furnished because of the tower recommended configuration). OR ATX TOWER (no need a big, a medium is cool).- A ON/OFF switch + 2 wires + HE13/14 Femal 2 pins connector to connect on the CT60 connector toallow you to go back to 030 mode...This is not fiurnished (sorry !) but will you yet use the 030 mode ???You can put a jumper if you really need to go back if you don't know how to solder 2 wires....If you solder 2 wires, please don't solder on the pins of the connector (let them clean for me ifI need it !), but undfer the board on the solders of this connector. In few days, the fitting documentation will be online...
ATTENTION :
1- For those of you that get a CT60 without 060, it is your responsability to plug your 060 and
stick the heatsink on the 060 !
Don't be stupid with this operation ! a bad insertion of the 060 in th socket will destroy it !
Not using the heatsink (and the fan is to be used too if the machine is closed !) may destroy the
060 !
USE a THERMAL STICK ! It's maybe expensive but a classical stick will not dissipate the 060 !
SEE the WEB SITE pictures (will be ready tomorrow !) to see how to get the 060 on the board and
how to stick the heatsink in the better position for falcon original cases !
For original cases, the fan can not be plugged on the heatsink if you keep the keyboard in the
initial position...
There are several ways possibles to get the fan near the 060....Imagine...
2 -Some of you (those who get a 60 MHz 060 model, have a 72 MHz oscillator in the package !
This is for pure fun because I don't support the 72 MHz configuration !
Some tests show that the few 060 /60 I tried have timing problems with caches.
The actual loaded SDR chips don't support 72 MHz.
To try the 72 MHz, you need to :
- make a download cable (see the downloadable CT60.LZH package).
- download the SD4D version of SDR (the actual is SD4F) : those files will be on my web site....
- be lucky with your 060/60 ! Let me know ...
What are the difference between SDR 4D et 4F ?
SD4D is the previous version of the SDRAM controler and use only one PAGE comparator.
It was tested and approoved at 72 MHz !
SD4F is a optimized version with 2 PAGE comparators : it's a bit faster and may be really faster
with some software.See the CHG documentation (the next one, not yet online !).SD4F run up to 69 MHz, not more.
I see nothing else to tell you now (all will be present in the fitting file)....except ...
HAVE FUN !
