WANTED: Parts to convert Apollo 4040 into 4060
Hi dear Users,
I own a Apollo 4040 and want to convert it into a Apollo 4060. A 68060 CPU I have in spare. I know that the 040 works with 5V and the 060 needs 3.3V. So I need a voltage regulator. Than for shure I need a new Firmware Rom. Hope someone can help. |

If your Apollo 4040 has MACH chips marked 130 it may not work as 4060.
It needs to have MACH131 to be certain to work. |

Not 100%
One person has tried with MACH130 and claims it works. Two others with MACH130 say it does not work. That is not a great number of people I know. http://eab.abime.net/showthread.php?...ighlight=a4060 |

No-one(?) except Jens Schoenfeld can make new MACH chips for Apollo cards. He has placed an infeasibly high price tag (€88/chip) on it because he does not want to make them.

Did you find out if you had MACH131 chips?
