Difference between revisions of "RAM7 2MB memory expansion"

Revision as of 22:09, 12 February 2010

A memory expansion card by RAM7.

This expansion allows to expand the CPC to a maximum of 2Mbytes ram.

Possible configurations are: 256K, 512K, 1024K and 2048K.

Can use up to four SRAM chips (128K or 512K each), or alternately two SIMMs (256K or 1M each).

Uses the same "extended standard" as CPC4MB.

FutureOS
And, of course, the first 512K are supported by all dk'tronics expansion compatible programs

-Unknown if the capacity is 256..2048 Kbit, or 256..2048Kbyte?
+* [[FutureOS]]
-Both doesn't make too much sense...
+* And, of course, the first 512K are supported by all dk'tronics expansion compatible programs
-* KBit would be nonsense (256Kbit would be only 32Kbyte).
-* Kbyte wouldn't be Dk'tronics compatible (which can handle max 512Kbyte)
-Possibly, it is 2Mbyte, and the first 512Kbyte are accessed in Dk'tronics-style fashion, and the remaining 1.5MByte are accessed in unknown fashion?
