Unknown Card in a 7200 (820-0697-B)
Posted by: dcr on 2019-04-27 15:22:56
Hello,

I have an unknown card in a 7200.  Very tiny.  Not a PCI card; it plugs into a different slot.  I didn't take a photo but can at some point if need be.

It's an Apple card with a copyright date of 1995, 96.  The cable has the numbers 590-4545-A and MEC 9624.  The card itself has 820-0697-B.

I've tried searching online but haven't come up with a match.  I did come up with an apple pie recipe though.   :/

I must have found something on it at one time because in my notes I listed that the machine contains a sound card.  Seeing as that's the only card in the machine besides RAM, I'm guessing that the tiny thing is some sort of sound card.  Haven't found anything more than that though.  Not sure if it was an add-on or something that's supposed to be in there.

Any guesses?  Is there a good place to look up Apple part numbers to see what they were for?  I've tried a couple places that sell parts but didn't get any results.

Thanks!

Any pictures? The only way is google "820-0697-B Apple" and see what happens and it doesn't.
Cheers

Besides VRAM & RAM, you have a cache slot and a rom slot.

Does it plug into the slot circled in red below?  If so, you've got the loopback adapter for the Apple PC Compatibility card.

If is the GIMO (aka 'Internal Audio/Video Assembly') I'd be happy to buy it off your hands 😉

That looks to be the spot where it plugs in.

I'll try to remember to take a photo the next time I dare open the case.  (These cases have nearly reached the point where you have to ask yourself what's going to break this time I open it?)
