We've still problems... Who has experience driving memory (dram)
in a z280-system using the z280-bus-mode (*not* z80 bus mode)?
thanks in advance, a.zinser

I, too would like to hear about hooking up DRAMS to a Z280. I currently have one using 128K of static RAM (32Kx8 chips) in 16-bit z280 mode, with burst mode working on a 5-HHz bus. I would like to go to a 10-MHz bus, but I would need to use static-column DRAMs (256Kx4 parts) to get enough speed. This system currently runs CP/M 3 with a 20 meg SCSI hard disk very well. If you are thinking of building a Z280 system, get in touch with me, and I can relate my experiences (and circuit diagrams, etc.) Doug Braun Intel Corp CAD 408 765-4279 / decwrl \ | hplabs | -| oliveb |- !intelca!mipos3!cadev4!dbraun | amd | \ qantel /
