Re: Building a replacement MTX PSU
Hi, panic over :mrgreen: Last night, I was going to put a link up to a picture that I posted earlier in the thread. But when I looked at it on a iPad I could only see three wires :shock: , and this does not tie in with the schematic that I posted :( However, after physically checking the wiring of t...

Re: Building a replacement MTX PSU
Actually, comparing the schematic and the pictures I have posted, there is an inconsistency . So can you hang fire please.
I'm at work right now. When I finish and get home I want to double check.

Re: Building a replacement MTX PSU
Connect a temporary DC supply to the input terminals. I used a DC power supply set to 8V, but a 9V battery would be fine. If using a PP3 [NEDA 1604, IEC 6F22, MN1604, 6LR61], best use a brand new one. Connect a digital multimeter to the output terminals. Now locate the preset (variable resistor) on ...

Re: HM6116 2Kx8bit SRAMs on ebay .. ideal for SPECULATOR ?
Spotted some SPECULATOR SRAMs on ebay.. at a respectable price £1.59 for 5pcs Ideal for anyone who is reverse engineering a SPECULATOR ZX Spectrum Emulator ? As these are getting quite rare it's unusual to see them for this sort of price. http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/HM6116L-120-Pack-of-5-/39101094579...
