Testing continues

I’ve been trying to catch up on the backlog of boards. A number of developer boards have gone out this week. The boards below have all finished functional test and are going onto soak test, final inspection and then shipping to distributors. (sorry for the poor...

Server move

The website has been moved to a new host provider, so we can provide additional services (like web SVN etc). Please check the forum for news and updates – the website will be getting an update as well 😉

New website on line

A new website went live, along with a forum. Unfortunately, I spent so much time in the Forum posting updates, I forgot to update the main website….   Meanwhile, testing continues :

Production boards complete

Some pictures of the production process and boards. The boxes have just arrived and everything should be packed and shipped before the end of the week. Note, the boards have not been cleaned yet.   Front Back   Boxes!

USB interface

As the last entry was in May last year, I think some update is in order. Simply, work went crazy and I moved flat in the summer last year – all of which conspired to push out the Replay board development sadly. I have got the production process in place now, and...

Pricing

Well, I said I would not update this “old” version of the site any more, but as I haven’t had time to bring up the nice new one yet completely, one more update is necessary. The Replay boards have now obtained FCC and CE approval and are starting to...

IO shield

Well, I still haven’t got the new website up and running, but testing and shipping of the boards continues. I’m working through the list of people who have mailed me. I have a new Amiga core up and running based on Jakub’s latest work, but it’s...

Testing testing…

Testing is going well, I have most of the boards assembled now. I am starting to mail people who have already contacted me, and then I will see how many boards are left. I am about to order some more, so there should be plenty available. The first core to be released...

More boards

Some of the new toys… Sorry for the lack of updates, still working on the new website. I’ll start taking orders for these later this week.  

ATX power controller

Ok, not quite the last post in the old website … I’ve just got back from another fantastic Glastonbury Festival, so it’s a bit of an effort to do, well, anything this week 🙂 I built one of the atx_pwr controller boards and it works nicely. Now my...

Replay IO

Oh, I nearly forgot – here is an overview of the base board and it’s connectors.

Replay prototype production continues

Prototype board production is continuing. All beta test boards are assembled and these have been shipping out over the past week or two. I’ve been in China and should get the production tweaked version as well as the atx-power control PCB manufactured shortly....

Replay cased and pretending to be an Amiga A1200

Here is a picture of the board in a mini-itx box. It’s the smallest case I could find and the Replay board takes up about 1/3rd. I need to make a small adapter board for the ATX PSU then the board can be powered by the rear 4 pin molex. The hardware is fully...

First board shipped

The first board was shipped out to another developer today! When we have a working initial firmware I will start shipping the rest of the boards. Please don’t email me yet!

Replay power fixed

The replacement regulators work well and solve the power off problem. I’ve been testing the luma trap response with burst test patterns generated in the FPGA. The hardware is working well, but I am starting to think the trap may not be worth it for...

Power supply issues with Replay

A quick update, I apologize for the delay. I’ve been really busy testing the boards. No real problems as yet. I’m waiting for a different LDO as the one I am using does not shut down when the input power is turned off, and the resulting reverse leakage...

Replay RevB finally assembled

A few more pictures now I’ve assembled the through hole components. You can see one board does not have the components on the backside, this is the version without the composite/SVHS output. The board you can see from the top has the codec and the extra output...
