FPGA-Arcade-Boards with Amiga-emulation available
According to Laurent 'Faranheit' Zorawski at amigaworld the FPGA-Arcade-boards with Amiga emulation can be ordered from him. The next charge of boards he expects to come in four or five weeks provided by FPGA-Arcade developer Mike Johnson. A reservation is recommended. Pictures and videos can be found under the title link.
The board consists of a 68k-processor (68000, 68010, 68020, 68EC020) as well as of the Amiga-chipsets OCS-A500, OCS-A1000, ECS and AGA. It uses 2 MB Chip-RAM and 9,5 MB Fast-RAM (57 MB Fast-RAM are announced) and can use two HDF-files and emulates four disk drives. Kickstart files from version 1.3 to 3.1 are accepted as well as different Workbench versions inclusive a 3.9-light-version. For the extension port before the end of the year a combined 68060, network and USB board with micro-SD-slot will be available (picture).
The FPGA-Arcade-Board differs from the original Minimig:
- Further processors beyond the 68000 are emulated, the 68020EC with up to 99 MHz
- More RAM as the 2-4 MB of the Minimig (up to 60 MB after finishing the currently tested firmware)
- Can be used in ATX, Micro-ATX or Mini-ITX case
- AGA-Chipsatz-Emulation
- Extension port
- S-Video output (will be accessable with the announced firmware update)
