Posted by: Zingo2000 on 2014-12-13 13:48:30 Hi! Do you guys know what this card is for?

Posted by: bse5150 on 2014-12-13 13:57:47 It's an FPU.

Posted by: uniserver on 2014-12-13 14:14:33 kinda of a cool looking pcb, even for the time!!!!!!!!!!!!!!    Maybe best mated with the LC-II?  because its a 6882?

Posted by: Macdrone on 2014-12-13 14:17:36 That's awesome I want one

Posted by: bigmessowires on 2014-12-13 14:35:29 Yeah! I had that exact same fpu board in my LC-I back in the day. Triangle rules.

Posted by: olePigeon on 2014-12-13 16:41:26 Too bad it's not socketed.

Posted by: unity on 2014-12-13 17:05:05 ^ Maybe it is? See how tall the shadow is? Is it Zingo?

Posted by: Elfen on 2014-12-13 17:43:22 Very nice. Like every had stated, it's an FPU.

Posted by: uniserver on 2014-12-13 18:18:57 what would a socket do for you

Posted by: westcoastech on 2014-12-13 18:39:12 triangle man!

Posted by: olePigeon on 2014-12-16 11:14:38 I meant the other socketed kind.  Many ethernet cards have a socket for an FPU.

Posted by: uniserver on 2014-12-16 11:19:40 kinda cool that FPU is good for 20mhz 🙂

Posted by: RalfK on 2015-01-03 07:56:41 But it runs at 16MHz. There is no separate clock generator for that fpu, so the fpu uses the clock from the pds-connector.

Posted by: Macdrone on 2015-01-03 20:46:33 Hey zingo mind doing close ups of both sides. I wish we could make some of these my lc's would be super happy.
