I am trying to interface a 68020 and a 68881 into the 68000 socket
of my AMIGA 500. I need to find some information on this subject, can
someone post any references to magazine articles or books on this topic?
Thanks

They didn't really tell the whole story, though, especially in relation to the way an Amiga 500 works. HOWEVER, you're in luck if you can get hold of the latest issue of the Amiga Transactor (I think it's Vol I, Num 3, not quite out yet). There's an article on building just such a board for an A1000, and they place the design in the Public Domain. They'll also ship you certain parts for it if you're interested. I haven't seen the article yet, though I did speak with one of the people involved about a month ago, and it sounds like a very good place to start, even if you're interested in doing your own design. > ____ ____ Gould, CSD, Home of the Firebreathers > / /___ The opinions expressed are my own. > /___ ____/ ...uunet!gould!csantiago > ...mcnc!rti-sel!gould!potpourri!csantiag -- Dave Haynie "The 32 Bit Guy" Commodore-Amiga "The Crew That Never Rests" {ihnp4|uunet|rutgers}!cbmvax!daveh PLINK: D-DAVE H BIX: hazy "I can't relax, 'cause I'm a Boinger!"
