Rombo Redux

Description

The RomboRedux is a 2018 clone of the original Rombo Rombox.

Its an almost exact copy apart from a couple of changes:

The through hole chips have been replaced by Surface Mount devices, the Bank Select switch has been swapped round to make the bank selection more logical, There is no expansion thru connector any longer. It now has a Reset button on the bottom right.

It also doesn't have the Add on Expansion connector the original board had. The original boards are virtually impossible to get hold of, let alone the expansion module that was sold at the same time.

It was originally designed by The Equalizor after his ROMBO stopped working, and has gone through 6 revisions to get to the model that is now for sale.

Rom Compatibility

Works with any "standard" 27128 or 2764 ROM, supports Hackit ROM in Slot 0, which in conjunction with the reset button works perfectly.
