40pin Gate Array 40008

An updated, pin compatible version of the 40007. The 40008 like the 40007 required a heatsink.

40pin Gate Array 40010 (HSG3130 or HSG3170)

Newer version of Gate Array with a rearranged pin-out. The 40010 didn't required a cooling plate.

Printer port 74LS273 chip is replaced by TWO chips: 74LS174 and 74LS175 (the latter one includes strobe inversion). UNDOC1/UNDOC2 are probably VCC/GND. UNDOC3/UNDOC4 are unknown.

160pin ASIC (CPC+/GX4000)

Includes Gate Array, CRTC, PPI, 8bit printer port, FDC select/motor, keyboard mux, analog I/O, CLK dividers, new CPC+ features (video, dma), cart rom bank, cart ACID counterpart, 128K RAM banking, DRAM addr/data bus, RESET signals. Lacks external PB0 and PC0-3 pins. PB/PC are one-directional. PB5 combines AMSDOS bank and /EXP input.
