Reverse Engineering the Macintosh IIsi Logic Board
Posted by: Iesca on 2022-04-04 20:42:23 If you could find it in your heart to share that missing page from the IIsi schematic, I'll be working on someone's boards soon. It's the LEFT page of the Audio circuit....
Posted by: mikes-macs on 2022-04-20 17:15:34 I hope this is still in ongoing development. If you need any IIsi donor parts let me know.

Posted by: Maxplayz51 on 2024-06-24 04:51:08 I actually need a replacement Macintosh iisi motherboard as mine has a lot of missing vias and traces from the PRAM battery leak it had. I've removed some ICs to clean the board but cleaning it makes no difference.
Posted by: Iesca on 2024-06-24 15:41:30 @jajan547 Somehow @Maxplayz51 's board looks worse than the ones I looked at for you awhile back!
Posted by: Maxplayz51 on 2024-06-30 14:52:07 @jajan547 Somehow @Maxplayz51 's board looks worse than the ones I looked at for you awhile back! Yeah I know. I wonder if anyone has one of the macintosh iisi motherboards?
Posted by: Guy Madison on 2025-02-18 17:38:33 ***** I bought the schematic from BOMARC years back, scanning, tweaking, printing and then cutting and taping it together into blocks I can see: View attachment 37695 Memory controller, banks A&B along with Vampire Video buffering are already assembled in the visual cortex and set up in layers of AI files. 😉 How correct is this schematic from BOMARC? I found out on the web...
Posted by: zigzagjoe on 2025-02-18 18:55:28 How correct is this schematic from BOMARC? I found out on the web... Better than nothing, but riddled with errors and a nightmare to read. You can reference the IIci schematic (attached) for some common functionality & to sanity check the Bomarc drawing.
Posted by: Trash80toHP_Mini on 2025-02-18 19:45:49 Has anyone taken a shot at a IIsi ReMix as yet? One of those mangled into SE/30 form factor would rock.

You can reference the IIci schematic (attached) for some common functionality & to sanity check the Bomarc drawing. Agreed.. a nightmare to read if you are used to using schematic design tools.
Posted by: Trash80toHP_Mini on 2025-02-22 20:02:56 I kinda like the BOMARC schematics. My mind doesn't do "schematic design tools" whatsoever, so something that looks like an electron plumbing diagram works for me as well as anything can I guess. I look at "true" Schemnatic diagrams and only scratch my head in confuzzlemrnent. 🤔
