I wonder if anybody has yet made a flexible #S100 emulation card comparable to the #UniBone and #QBone cards for DEC systems? Recent projects like #BlueSCSI, #OneROM, #PicoIDE, etc. make me wonder whether an #RP2040 or #RP2350 might have the horsepower to do the job?

Here is the #Compupro #S100 card set I put in the system:

  • DISK1 (floppy disk controller)
  • SYSTEM SUPPORT 1
  • CPU-Z
  • RAM17
  • INTERFACER4
  • There are two more slots free for future expansion.

    That empty spot to the left of the floppy drives is just the right size to stash a copy of The CP/M Handbook by Rodnay Zaks.

    I think this came from some company that built (or repaired?) hard disk drives. The cards and power harness had been removed, but the case has a nice 7-slot S-100 backplane and a pair of especially nice Mitsubishi M2896 8" floppy disk drives. Back around 2016, I built a new power harness and fitted it with a #Compupro #S100 board set.

    The little rack it's in flips right over with the computer rolled out on its rails, so I made a pair of legs with 80/20 extrusion. They're a bit cumbersome to use, but they were easy to make.

    Does anybody remember this #S100 computer from back when I was on twitter? I don't think I've done anything with it since around 2017, and mice have visited it since then. Let's spend a little time with it and clean it up.

    Long term goal in hacking the Teletek #S100 hardware is getting the front panel speaker to make noise.

    According to this:
    https://www.ti.com/lit/ds/symlink/lm741.pdf?ts=1754715192199

    The 741 op-amp to drive the speaker can be run directly off the unregulated ± 18V that the S100 bus provides!

    I wish the wire wrapped mess that is the front panel controller at least matched the schematics for it, but it doesn't.

    It's a latched buffer, then (???) to 741 to speaker. Wire up the 741 right, then I can figure out what (???) is?

    Ok so a standard circuit board is 1.57 mm or 0.062 inch thick, and a S100 circuit board is 5 inch x 10 inch.

    So I've ordered some 8" x 12" plastic sheets that are 1.5 mm thick, and a pair of 80mm 12v fans to build a fan card to help cool my S100 CP/M box!
