Do you have the voltage regulator schematic / pcb? |
Look in the upgrading Apollo 1240 thread. :)
|
I have one of that CPU http://cgi.ebay.it/XC-68060-RC50-100...mZ260251117369
that's ok for the apollo 3040 upgrade? need I to change the oscillator? with a 50 Mhz version or other value? Also I taken a look to the 1240 upgrade thread and seen the voltage regulator built from "Dimlow"; I contacted he by PM but not reply at this time. I need to know if that voltage regulator can be used on the apollo 3040 with no modifies or need to be modified. I already have pin jumpers on my A3040 so I need to change male connector with female connettor on the Dimlow's VR , but it will works fine? many thanks :) many thanks! |

I dunno if anyone would be interested but I found these on ebay.

My first step is to build a voltage regulator like Dimlow... |
The socket on mine is a bit beat up. But I know what you mean.
|
a simple question, my 3040 have a 28 pins eprom mounted on a 32 pins socket, i assume that's the 27c128 eprom for 68040. Need I to use another 27c128 for the 68060 eprom or need to burn a 27c010 32 pins for that?
|
You need the 27C010, the 27C128 don't have room for the '060 code.
|
Well, I burnt a 27c010 eprom and bought MC68060RC50 cpu.
But with MX68060RC50 I can overclock it up to 80 Mhz with original oscillator or need to replace oscillator with another of 50 mhz? Now I got a problem: I'm looking for TS1085 (to build the voltage regulator) but not found it. Can you help me to find it or know equivalents? |

You will have to modify the clock jumpers on the underside of the board to successfully overclock to 80MHz and keep RAM happy. http://eab.abime.net/showthread.php?...highlight=4060 |

I bought MC68060RC50 mask 71E41J ; I seen the modify but unfortunately I have not a SMD desoldering station so I think that cannot desolder and resolder the 100 ohm resistor. What's the problem if I will not apply that modify? But, if I replace the 80mhz crystal with 50Mhz version? the cpu will run at 50mhz and no smd resistor modify needed? |

I tried today to upgrade my apollo 4040 to 4060 ...
I applied the following: - MC68060RC50 CPU - 50MHZ Crystal oscillator - Eprom 27C010 with 4060_5.21_unknownchip_b_27c010.BIN - Voltage regulator with EZ1084CT But it DOESN'T WORKS!!! :crying I encountered a strange problem: the power led flashes rapidly and after 5 seconds I hear quite toc-toc-toc from power supply... the power led switch off and the power supply too... what can be the problem? is the CPU or the voltage regulator or whats? I tested voltage regulator ... 3.48V with no loads... please help me!!! thanks :bowdown |
There are a few excellent "Desolder Surface Mount" videos on YouTube. Just skip the hick modding his xbox vids :) It's easy to desolder and solder an SMD resistor with a normal soldering pen.
The toc toc toc, if it's a switching supply, is the PSU detecting an overload or short on one of the voltages (maybe it's all of them or just the +5V, guess it depends on model). Disconnect the PSU and measure resistance between GND and the different voltages on the Amiga. If one has <5 ohm, it's shorted. Then unplug peripherals until the shorting one is found. If there is a short when there is only the motherboard left, you have to find the fault or get a new one. If no short is found, it's probably the PSU, try another. |
Well, I replaced PSU and no toc-toc-toc now.
But the screen remain balck, the machine doesn't boot. I tried 3 CPU MC68060RC50 and tried the crystal on another accellerator board. I'm thinking about the eprom, maybe I not used the correct firmware, anybody can send me or help me to find the correct bin file? thanks! |

@8bitbubsy
There is no real evidence (particularly on Apollo 40x0) to show that the MACH number is particularly damning. Certainly not with 50MHz crystal. |
Unfortunately I have all three MACH 130 ... no solutions?
