Homemade Micro SwinSID

January 15, 2012 / posted in Commodore Stuff / 3 Comments

Today I decided to make my own SwinSID as I had the schematics and also had the parts laying about.
After a short time checking everything was going to the right places I fitted it into my C64 and fired it up.
As expected it works just fine.
The board still needs cut down to size. I didnt add the ground planes on this one due to some through hole issues.

Thanks to Swinkels for making the SwinSID software

      Sure, what info do you want?
      What you using for your pla replacement? The pls100 chips I’ve got work well and the fpga alternative is also a really good device but can be pricey.
      If you send ne your email I can send you the files for the swinsid should you need them

    I got these HT27C512-70 OTP Eprom… no idea how they will work but someone told me they had good luck with C64 PLA replacements with these.
