'Fraid I'm not much of an electronics guy, but I can take some decent pictures, so I could put it on my website tomorrow. I like the idea of using the Asante then plugging in the adapter in the pass through.
The SE/40 site (http://www.pp.iij4u.or.jp/~happyday/se40-1.html) shows a SE/30 with a Daystar '040 Turbo and Asante NIC that is hung off the adapter, but I can't see how the adapter card fit in there without "sawing off" the FPU socket or at least notching it. The chip has the following info: GAL16V8B 15LP B310D62 Jack ----------------------------------------- From: John Niven <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Subject: Re: DiiMOCache IIsi Adapter Date: Tue, 20 Apr 2004 20:39:28 +0800 To: "Compact Macs" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Cc: John Niven <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> What I want to know is what is it's circuit schematic? How is it wired? How can it be replicated? If found this picture of it: http://www.cls.ne.jp/fujino/Accelerator/IIsiDiimoAdapter.htm Is that what you have? There is (IMHO) not much point in having a fast SE/30 that doesn't have ethernet. So can you put an Asante NIC in the PDS slot and then adapt the DiiMOCache IIsi Adapter so it fits into the PDS passthrough on that? It looks like most of the adapter is just straight wiring, but what is that DIP device on the side? I'd dearly like to know :-) John On Tuesday, April 20, 2004, at 08:15 PM, Jack Gallemore wrote: I thought about using one of these in my "problem child" SE/30, but the SE/30 ROM extends into the area where the FPU socket on the adapter board is by a centimeter or so. What are my options in using this board? Could I remove the socket? Is there a PDS "riser" that could elevate the board so the socket and ROM don't conflict? Should I just put it on ebay?
