FPGA-basierter Amiga-Klon: AmiCube, Board-Layout Version 1.1
In einem Video stellt Ranko Rodic den aktuellen Status seines FPGA-basierten Amiga-Klons AmiCube F1200 vor. Anhand eines Renderings von Version 1.1 des Board-Layouts werden die vorgenommenen Änderungen erläutert:
- MOSFETs back for level shifting - They're making a triumphant return to handle voltage like champs!
- Floppy disk module routed like a dream - Everything's neatly tucked into this slick little area - pure engineering art!
- Tiny 402 components (pick-and-place approved!) - These micro-sized parts are a bold move, and my trusty machine's got it covered.
- LEDs still shining bright for cell/motor/ready signals - Keeping the visuals popping so you know what's active at a glance!
- FPGA now gets direct ready signals - sky's the limit in Verilog! - More control, more possibilities - coding just got a whole lot more fun!
- Polarity sorted, inverters added - active low LEDs light up when they should! - No more guessing games; these lights mean business now!
- Detect signals for floppy connections = instant LED action! - Plug in a floppy, and bam - LEDs light up to confirm it's go time!
- Cleaner routing, no more wiggles - just straight-line perfection! - The board's looking sharper than ever with optimized paths.
- Jumper for 3V/5V switching + better heat dissipation with extra mass - Flexibility and cool vibes - literally thanks to some thermal tweaks!
- FPGA status LEDs to show when the Amiga core is up & running! - Watch the magic happen as the board boots and the Amiga core kicks in!
- Decoupling done right this time - followed Spartan-6 datasheets to the letter! - No shortcuts here; it's all by the book for max stability!
- SRAM (6MB) + SDRAM (64MB) in the works for that sweet retro Amiga RAM vibes! - SRAM keeps it authentic, while SDRAM adds mega power - best of both worlds!
- AGA core porting is progressing—looking good so far! - The Amiga dream is coming alive, and I’m pumped about where this is headed!
