AMSDAP - CPC and MSX expansion slots for Amstrad CPC
The AMSDAP is developed in collaboration by Prodatron and TMTLOGIC.
With this board, it is possible to use MSX hardware on the CPC computer. This only applies to hardware that uses the IO bus of the Z80. Hardware that uses memory functions is not supported.
On the board is a DC / DC converter that provides the +/- 12v of the MSX. The maximum current is 84mA.
