F/+HINT4
This website contains an archive of files for the Acorn Electron, BBC Micro, Acorn Archimedes, Commodore 16 and Commodore 64 computers, which Dominic Ford has rescued from his private collection of floppy disks and cassettes.
Some of these files were originally commercial releases in the 1980s and 1990s, but they are now widely available online. I assume that copyright over them is no longer being asserted. If you own the copyright and would like files to be removed, please contact me.

3.1 Master 128 Memory Map At the time of writing the memory map within the areas INFC and INFD in the Master 128 computer are as follows: &FCFF Paging register for memory in the &8000 to &BFFF region. Paging logic has to be implemented in each cartridge as necessary. &FC82 &FC81 Speech system &FC80 to &FCFE Reserved for use by Acorn. 3.2 Electron Memory Map &FC18 to &FC1F Reserved for use by Acorn &FC28 to &FC2F Reserved for Econet use &FC30 to &FC3F Reserved for use by Acorn &FC60 to &FC6F ACIA &FC70 Analogue to digital converter &FC71 Parallel printer port &FC72 Status register &FC73 ROM scrolling register &FC78 to &FC7F Laser Disc &FC80 to &FC8F Test Hardware &FC90 to &FC9F Sound/Speech &FCB0 to &FCBF VIA &FCC0 to &FCCF Floppy Disc Controller &FCE0 to &FCEF Tube &FCFF Paged RAM register 1.0 Purpose of this application note 1 To describe the signals available on the expansion port at the rear of the Electron microcomputer. 2 To define the specification which all expansion modules for the Electron microcomputer must meet. 3 To describe Acorn Computers' philosophy for expansion of the Electron microcomputer. Note that both hardware and software must conform to the standards set out in this note. Failure to do this will result in poor reliability, and incompatibility with other expansion modules and the Electron itself. Failure to comply with the power supply requirements may cause the thermal fuse in the mains power adaptor to blow irretrievably. 1.1 Acorn Expansion Module Philosophy The Electron is designed to take one or two expansion units fixed rigidly to the main unit and to one another by screws which locate into recessed brass bosses. More expansion units can be added with consequent loss of rigidity. Electrical connection is to the PCB edge connector at the back of the Electron. Dimensions and specifications for the expansion connector are given in section 2 and the Appendix. 2.0 Electron Expansion Connector Pinout To gain access to the Electron expansion connector, the plastic cover which protects it must be removed. Any instructions supplied with an expansion module must direct the user to remove this cover before attempting to connect the module to the Electron, and to replace the cover whenever the module is disconnected. The Electron expansion connector is laid out as shown in Figure 1. 2.1 Signal Definitions The function of each terminal on the Electron expansion connector is described below. 18V AC (pins 1,2) These lines are connected directly to the output AC RETURNS (pins 3,4) from the Electron mains power adaptor. A total of 6W may be drawn from these lines as long as no power is taken from +5V (pins 9,10,49,50). For safety reasons these lines must never be used as an AC input to the Electron, see Section 3. -5V (pins 5,6) A -5V supply from the Electron. Up to 20mA (total) may safely be drawn from this line by expansion modules. 0V (pins 7,8,47,48) Ground. Expansion modules with their own power supply must have the 0V lines commoned with the Electron.
