opcode Posted June 5, 2018 Author Share Posted June 5, 2018 games plug in ... from the top? Ok, let me explain that. What you see here is possibly a super set of the final IntelliXpander, as we may remove things based on target price, and some things are to make debugging and development easier. However not present in this first version is the Intellivision passthrough cartridge slot, since we don't need that for game development. Besides, most components are DIP in the present board, but they will become SMD later, freeing a lot of board space, so the passthrough can be added. Finally the slot you see is for IntelliXpander cartridges, which requires extra pins not possible with the original cartridge slot. And of course everything would look nicer inside the planned case, but then you wouldn't have the sneak peek of the board. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
