Finally! After PCI busboards, what we now need is an MCA busboard.

I know people have their own method of soldering, and with their own choice of Soldering iron.
When i did my Minimig, I had someone do the QFP208 (FPGA) for me and even then someone who supposedly knew what he was doing he fucked up and stuck all the legs of the FPGA together and couldnt fix it. I did the ram myself, as well as the 68000 on the board using the big no no of soldering to use the non temperature cheap crap $20 soldering iron (I can hear the gasps now), pre tin all the pads of the chip, place the chip visually, and then do the one corner, other corner (to hold it in place), then do a left right action of the iron tip (instead of up and down the length of the pin row) with PLENTY of flux. This only worked because Dennis (designer of Minimig) used longer pads for the flat pack chips, but from the looks of this, the pads are only JUST bigger than the profile of the chips legs because of the size of the boards, so a REAL fine chisel tip can only get to them. |

How do you find the quality of those dirty pcb's? I suppose it's hard to assess in general due to the fact that they pool at several different fabs?
Looking at the photo above, it seems like some of the silk screen is missing; also when watching part 2 of your soldering video yesterday, I thought it looked like some pads were tinned and some not? |

So, if you added the 68000 re-locating to your board, the cost goes up too much?

Yes. And it's cheaper to make them as dedicated shunts like kipper did.

I am encountering unknown stability issues with the TF530 Rev 2. I'm very perplexed. I'd hold off getting boards until i understand whats happening.

Hope it's nothing funny with a voltage regulator.

Seems to exhibit the issue when powered by a completely clean source (6632B)

Hi I've not seen the under side of the board or looked on git hub so please forgive me with this! With the ram do you have bypass cap's on the ram side.

Of course. 10uF per chip. 2 x 10uF on the 030
