Dear sci.electronics readers, We are developing a RISC processor based on the following parts from Advanced Micro Devices: Am29332 32-bit ALU (120 pin 13x13 grid array package) Am29334 4-Port Register File (169 pin 17x17 grid array package) Am2910 Microprogram Controller (40 pin DIP) Initially we were going to wirewrap the prototype on an Augat 8136-UG1-54TG panel. However, I called up Augat and they told me that they did not manufacture the 120 pin 13x13 grid array adapter or the 169 pin 17x17 grid array adapter. These had to be custom made in quantities of at least 10-20. Unfortunately I don't think I'll have the money to custom make 10-20 of these adapters. Augat told me that perhaps someone else may have had these adapters custom made and stocked some extras. Does anyone know of anyone who has these grid array adapters? Does anyone know of an alternate wirewrap panel we could use that has the necessary pin grid array adapters available for the chips we will be using? Please reach me via e-mail. Thanks!!!! -- Jodi Tsai
