Beiträge von adtbm im Thema „MEGA65 R3 Mainboard sneak-peak and Updates“

    OK, lots of work has been done in the previous days to verify the R3 boards.

    Paul did 2 very nice blogposts, that summarize a little bit of the work we did and give you a nice "behind-the-curtain" view.

    Bitte melde dich an, um diesen Link zu sehen. with more general testing.

    and Bitte melde dich an, um diesen Link zu sehen., with a deeper look into the IEC port testing

    And last but not least, as a special sneak-peak, here for the community:

    A test fit of the speakers (CMS-40504N-L152 4OHM 2W ENCLOSED 100DB) we had in mind when we added the screw bosses for speakers below the speaker connectors on the R3 board. we will not deliver the DevKit or the final MEGA65 with speakers, but of course we needed to test the amplifier that has been added to the R3 board. So as it is written on a lot of groceries, it's a "serving suggestion", ein "Serviervorschlag". :wink:

    Bitte melde dich an, um diesen Anhang zu sehen.

    At the moment we are just experimenting with old PC speakers, so to be honest we really can't give a suggestion at this time.
    I am quite certain you should be able to mount some speakers inside the Devkit as well, but there are no screwbosses prepared for mounting.

    but since there is a huge variety of 8 Ohm speakers, you can choose yourself.

    Within the next couple of days, there will be an update, regarding the Tests we have done so far, probably together with a small video, showing the internal speakers in action too.

    I have at the moment one of the latest Revision DevKit case over here, so thanks for your question, i'll have a look where it would be possible to mount some speakers.

    Thank you. Yes ! It's a beauty ! Probably some people will notice, that we have not been able to change the RTC battery holder anymore, that change request just came in to late. But i will plan to build myself a small Battery adapter to use the more commom CR2032.

    But overall the new Mainboard fits together with the new case like (Die Faust auf's Auge :wink: )

    Hi,

    as some of you maybe noticed already.

    Paul did a nice Bitte melde dich an, um diesen Link zu sehen..

    We have received the first 3 Prototypes of the revision 3 Mainboards of the MEGA65.

    One of those boards will be sent via express delivery to Paul/Australia tomorrow morning, to get it into Pauls hands as fast as possible.

    I had the chance to test the board already together with Paul.

    (While i made a serial connection from my PC to the MEGA65, Paul connected remotely to my PC and directly worked on the R3 board. So YES Paul was able to use a MEGA65 located in Darmstadt Germany from the middle of Nowhere in Australia !)

    So far we are absolutely happy with the Revision 3 ! and if our further tests proof, we will be absolutely in our planned release schedule.

    So have fun, reading Pauls Blog and we keep you updated !


    Stay tuned !!!
