: Hi Robert;
:
: The card you have is a 16k EPROM/CMOS memory expansion card. It
was
: manufactured by IBS Computertechnik in 1984. The catalog
product number
: was AP8.
:
: The card can use the CMOS memory chips that are installed on
your card,
: or EPROM chips for user programs. The three batteries allowed
the CMOS
: to be used as permanent (as long as the charge lasted) storage.
:
: The 16k is in parallel to the ROM and I/O area and is
overlayable with
: the use of bank select softswitches. The address space is
divided into
: four areas that can be individually selected. There is also an
autostart
: function so you could boot from the card on power up.
:
: I think I have the schematic for the card in my A2 archives. If
you
: would like, I can check.
I would love that schematic. Thanks.
