With Andrew’s help (3 prototype boards later!) we now have a board that we are very happy with. With its own independent Z80 on board, it is completely command driven via 2 parallel ports (with strobe bits) to/from ...
Hi! I still have a small number of these PCBs left so if anyone would like some please let me know. This is a nice looking board in any vintage S-100 system and blends in well. The displays are very useful and interesting to watch. The commonly available PS/2 keyboard is an inexpensive and reliable way to communicate with your system. http://s100computers.com/My%20System...20Keyboard.htm Thanks and have a nice day! Andrew ...
Hi! I did a recent reorder of the S-100 4MB SRAM boards and have a few left over. If you would like one they are $20 each plus $3 shipping in the US or $6 elsewhere.

What remains is to update the trace routing on the SMB base board and display mezzanines and then place the order. Functionally the S-100 SMB is like an updated version of the Jade ...
