CPC iRAM
,status update
* total accessible RAM of 640K in a 6128 (64K Base RAM + 512K RAM expansion + 64K secondary RAM bank of the 6128)
* easy to assemble, all through-hole components
* perfectly fits into a CPC 6128, even with socketed ROM or RAM. In Schneider CPC 6128 the metal shielding needs to be removed or altered.
Status: Released - see https://github.com/etomuc/CPC6128_iRAM-640
== currently in development ==
=== CPC iRAM/1088 ===
* for CPC 6128 only
* 1024K expansion
* total accessible RAM of 1088K in a 6128 (64K Base RAM + 1024K RAM expansion)
* easy to assemble, but SRAMs are in SMD packaging (SOP32) due to size constraints in the CPC 6128
* perfectly fits into a CPC 6128, even with socketed ROM or RAM. In Schneider CPC 6128 the metal shielding needs to be removed or altered.
Status: Finished, final PCB to be tested.
=== CPC iRAM/1024 ===
* for CPC 464/and 664
* offers two sockets for SRAMs
* upgrade to 576K (1 SRAM) or 640K/1024K (2 SRAMS)
* first SRAM: Upgrade to 576K, following the DK'Tronics standard without support of C3 mode (like many other RAM expansions)
* second SRAM: upgrade to 640K 1024K (128K 512K SRAM) or 1024K optionally also 640K (512K 128K SRAM)
* [http://norecess.cpcscene.net/advancedmemoryusage.html C3 RAM banking] supported if both SRAMs are fitted
* easy to assemble, all through-hole components
Status: in active developmentfirst prototype PCB ordered, not tested yet
== paused / abandoned ==
=== CPC iRAM/576 ===
* easy to assemble, all through-hole components
Status: currently on halt Abandoned as CPC iRAM/1024 will fit into all 464s and /664s and is more flexible
