Dear friends,
I developed the SD Music card to enhance old mockingboard of APPLE II.
In fact, I love this approach and sound quality.
In that version,
I replaced all electrolytic capacitors to tantalum capacitors for better sound quality and life.
And used RC filter on output AMP and some more improved.
But, It has compatibility issue following part's LOT#. It means that some chips works on some model with some software running.
In fact, After made this board, I've tested it on my APPLE //e and ][+ with SKYFOX and Ultima 4,5 before to ship. All fine then I sent it.
It works fine on APPLE //e even IIGS with Mockingboard patch.
But, I found it didn't work some software and some of APPLE ][+ model.
I really having hard time to find this cause...
It is happen because of the 6522 timing doesn't match well on APPLE II with 6502 CPU.
With some more research, I could find good way to overcome this issue and quickly applied on new PCB for SD Music card.
Sample card ordered and waiting for this.
On the CPLD testing, It works perfect on my APPLE //e and ][+ with all softwares.
and will test some of APPLE ][+ clones..
Please wait for some weeks for new board.
I will post when I have new board with testing results.
** NOTICE **
