VidGameKing Posted January 10, 2002 Share Posted January 10, 2002 I want to know the EXACT differences between the 5200 and the atari 800/400/XE systems. I want to try to make a combined system, with a cart prot that will accept both types of carts, (or somthing to that effect). and put in a hardware buffer to switch between the two settings. I dont think I would want to make such a thing to sell, I want to make it cause it would be interesting to try. anyone have any ideas to help me would be great. I also need detaild schematics for the XEGS or other 8-bit computer. thanks to Atariage, I have what I need for the 5200. I actually plan on designing a new curcuit board that would handle both systems. I also want to make it alot smaller. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DanBoris Posted January 10, 2002 Share Posted January 10, 2002 You can probably get the XEGS schematics here: Best Electronics For the differences between the 5200 and the computers check out this article on my web site from Analog magazine, it does a pretty good job describing the differences.
