Please help me identify this A500 expansion board...

StevenJGore · 11 September 2009, 10:36

I got a boxed A500 from a car boot sale last weekend (for £4!), and it had an expansion card inside the trapdoor (see attached images).

I can't find it in the BBoAH, or using google. Any ideas? I know it's probably just a bog-standard 512K RAM expansion, but I'd like to know a bit more about it.

Thanks!
Steve.

For my eyes it's a bog standard A500 expansion, the term 501 was used at least for some that I owned. You can see it has provision for a battery backed clock. I would say that it's been 'home made', it doesn't have any additional marks and a copyright by PF and it's titled PF501_1, suggesting a standard 501 expansion with a revision of 1.
