[[Image:%3Fattach%3D34008;image.jpeg|thumb|USIfAC II]]
The '''U'''ltimate '''I'''nterface '''f'''or '''A'''mstrad '''C'''PC (a.k.a. ULIfAC), is a modern multi function board, based around PIC 18F47Q10 Microcontrollers, designed and built by [[ikonsgr]] from the CPCWIKI Forums.ULIfAC is an evolution of [[USIFAC|USiFAC II board]], with which is 100% compatible. The PIC software is written in Great Cow Basic and has been released by [[ikonsgr]].
ULIfAC board expands the functionality of the previous USIfAC II board, by offering many new features on the same board:
{| class="wikitable"
|-
| • 512Kb Ram Expansion
|-
| • 32X Rom Board
|-
| • 256Kb Ram Expansion + 16X ROM board
|-
| • Automatic Rom mounting upon cold boot!
|-
| • Convert instantly a CPC 464 to a CPC 6128 using a simple RSX Command
|-
| • Run games/programs from a usb stick or PC Hard Drive (through ESP8266 WiFi module or UART serial cable).Save is also supported, as well as full access to ASCII files too.
|-
| • Full read/write access of DSK images of both AMSODS and PARADOS formats.
|-
| • Very fast loading speeds of up to ~30kb/sec (more than 6-7 times faster ,than a usual speed of a gotek/floppy disk drive).
|-
| • Access up to Four DSK images and choose them "on the fly", to support all multi-image Games.
|-
| • Load SNA snapshot files.
|-
| • MIDI, RS232 and accessing online BBS.
