Fancy helping me with a layout? I don't get so much pleasure with laying out PCBs.

I'm just trying to understand the goal of the project. Is there a shortage of A3000 motherboards or something? Or is it just for fun?

Personally I enjoy doing layouts. It's quite a challenge to do by hand with such a complex board.

Well simply:

1. there are LOTS of dead A3000 out there due to batteryleakage. they need a pcb replacement to run nicly again. you can fix it with juperwires etc. but there is still shit from the battery slooowly eating more copper..

2. by doing this. we will also have data similiar to the AmigaPCB site, so you can follow up traces helping repairs being done

3. well why not. I need a new pcb. so I do it. if someone else have use for it.. doubleYAY!

Very nice project, I too have a A3000 that could use a new motherboard.

Liqourice · 02 March 2019, 00:25

I wish I had that kind of patience.

appleiiguy · 02 March 2019, 15:20

My 3000 has battery damage also... Could use a MB swap. Wonder if the ReAmiga 3000 will have INT2 mod on the CPU slot...

Chucky · 02 March 2019, 15:21

Yes INT2 will be even on the 1:1 testcopy..
then what changes will be done on the ReAmiga one. that we havt to see.

lesta_smsc · 08 March 2019, 13:30

I know one person in particular is looking forward to the final result so he can start with restoring his A3000 collection... you do too Chucky

Chucky · 28 March 2019, 21:49

Here is a real sneakpeak of my A3000 project.
Here you can see components etc. Do check if you can find issues. (if you are brave enough to follow traces THEN I am impressed

)

Due to brain-meltdown I wrote the wrong revisionnumber on the board!

@Chucky

I have a damaged A3000T motherboard that I might be willing to let you have in trade if you are interested.

Chucky · 09 April 2019, 08:38

Well I will NOT do a reverse of the tower pcb
