  • Can be fitted with Amphenol connectors (done in germany) (instead Edge connectors). Uses 24pin FDC Data Separator.


CPC6128 version 4 (cost-down)

CPC6128 Z80330 Yarek.jpg
  • Board: PT NO Z80330 (1988)
  • Uses 100pin SMD Gate Array (combines the old Gate Array and PAL, CRTC, and some FDC/DRAM/RESET logic in one chip).
  • Can be fitted with four 64Kx4 RAM chips (or the normal sixteen 64Kx1 RAM chips)
  • Printer port consists of 74LS174+74LS175 (instead of 74LS273)
