F/+MCART3

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.

10 nOE2 - Output Enable : Input with TTL levels
  This line provides an additional active low output enable for ROMs 
  in the Electron. This corresponds to ROM position 13 and 
  consequently responds quickly to service calls. It is low during the 
  active low portion of PH12.
  It is not guaranteed to be high at other times.

  LPSTB - Light pen strobe
  A connection with a pull up to +5V is provided to the CRTC light pen
  strobe and system interrupt structure.  When an on-board link is  
  removed, this connection is merely a link from one cartridge to the 
  other.

11  BA7 - Buffered address line 7 : Input with TTL levels
    The buffered address lines hold addresses valid for 125ns after 
    PH12 goes low.  They are not buffered or held valid for an 
    extended period in the Electron.

12  BA6 - Buffered address line 6 : Input with TTL levels

13  BA5 - Buffered address line 5 : Input with TTL levels

14  BA4 - Buffered address line 4 : Input with TTL levels

15  BA3 - Buffered address line 3 : Input with TTL levels

16  BA2 - Buffered address line 2 : Input with TTL levels

17  BA1 - Buffered address line 1 : Input with TTL levels

18  BA0 - Buffered address line 0 : Input with TTL levels

19  D0 - Data bus line 0 : Input/Output with TTL levels

20  D2 - Data bus line 2 : Input/Output with TTL levels

21  D1 - Data bus line 1 : Input/Output with TTL levels

22  0V - Zero volts
    This is the earth return for digital signals

Where two or more cartridges are fitted, any host computer links affect
ALL cartridges.

3.0  Memory Map

All accesses to the cartridges are performed at 2MHz.  The memory map
within the area &FC00 to &FD00 differs between the Electron an d the
Master 128:

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.
