Hi all,


I'd like to try to implement new functions in CPCbooster but i am unable to find bios source code, does someone still own that ?

Hi,
I only found the this source code on CPCRulez: http://cpcrulez.fr/hardware-cpcbooster-interface_cpcbooster_plus.htm, but I am not sure if it is the latest version nor if it is really the ASM source code of the CPC Booster+.

Thanks Octoate, that already gave me an idea about it works, very interesting.
I'll try to contact antitec to get more , actually dirty minds website seems offline  :(

Hey there,
I looked for this a few times and I recently found it! I've added the information to the wiki page: CPC Booster - CPCWiki

Thanks for the edits, mate!

This schematic look to be not the final version.
Missing the serial pins and the audio jacks connectors on the design.

Yes, it says on the schematic "Missed audio slots". It shouldn't be too hard to add those I guess, especially if you have a booster to look at (which I don't). Better than nothing anyway. The source code at least seems to be up to date.


EDIT: I was just looking at this again, and the places for the connectors are actually present on the PCB layout, but the components themselves are missing - I guess someone just couldn't be bothered to make a footprint? And again, when you look at the schematic the same is true - all the parts for audio are there, it's just the connectors themselves missing - so this may actually be the the final version. :D

I can't say about the "serial pins" though - what do you mean? I think the PCB layout is complete - it might just be the schematic is not complete/in sync - it looks to have been done by somebody else anyway. I think there is enough here to build one.

OK, the schematic not match with the PCB design, but it look OK as the footprints are present for the audio jacks and the serial pins.

Thank you.
