EricDeLee Posted July 1, 2009 Share Posted July 1, 2009 Sweet! I can't wait to get mine! Building up a few more funds though! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Torx Posted July 1, 2009 Share Posted July 1, 2009 THAT is slick packaging right there! well worth the wait! lynxman youve outdone yourself. anyone know if we'll be able to put the board in a dummy lynx casing? might have to do some dremeling for the usb port. but it'd be a shame to hide that tasty red board Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
arkanoid Posted July 1, 2009 Share Posted July 1, 2009 (edited) That's really nice! Just recived my tracking number so I should have mine soon. I noticed the static electricity warning on the manual in those pics. Does anyone know if static damage is a real concern? Do I need to be overly cautious when handeling? I was under the impression that modern ICs were not anywhere near as suseptable to static damage as they used to be many years ago?

I was under the impression that modern ICs were not anywhere near as suseptable to static damage as they used to be many years ago? That has nothing to do about how old the circiuts are. Its only about the Type (40xx would be damage easier as other Types) As i made lynxopoly i dont discharge me every time i use the card. The main thing is: dont go over a carpet. That will charge you. Be careful with handling. The components are not filled with plastic, glue, lacquer or something. If you use the whole to remove it, and insert it by holding it on the edge, there should be no problems with the card. and....I dont have carpets regards Matthias Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was under the impression that modern ICs were not anywhere near as suseptable to static damage as they used to be many years ago? It is just a warning. (And as far as i know the Skunkboard have some ESD Warning inside the manual.) It is always a good idea if you handle with electronic components or PCBs to give some attention to the ESD. My Prototype Boards are all still running, and at the beginning sometimes my firmware have done some stuppid thinks like access to the FlashRom while insert into the Lynx. This is not funny if 2 output lines drive different signal value... But they still running. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I tried coding in high school, not so good at it. But for some reason I am still compelled to buy a Flashcart. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Overlord Posted July 3, 2009 Share Posted July 3, 2009 This looks like a great device! It is about time something like this came out for Lynx. If only the Jaguar were so open... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Overlord Posted July 3, 2009 Share Posted July 3, 2009 No I did not, but much less controversy with the Lynx card, especially compared to JagCF. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
