pk87
From: GM1FML@GB7MAC
In response to a question from G4BAU on how to upgrade a PK-87 to a PK-88
here is how. Mine and a few friends PK-87s all upgraded without any problems.
UPGARDING A PK-87 TO A PK-88 12/02/89
The first step is to discover which version of the PK-87 you have, the
difference lies in the crystal used in the clock oscillator. The old version
has a 2.4576MHz crystal while the newer version has a 4.9152 MHz crystal.
Items required :- 32k static RAM low power (e.g.HN62256LP-15)
PK-88 EPROM
PLUS for older
version of PK-87 :- 4.9152 MHz HC18/U parallel resonant crystal
220pF high stabilty capacitor
NOTE: There are two versions of the PK-88 to date. In the context of
EPROM upgrades they differ in the device used for U 22 (in PK-88),
the old version having a 74HCT4040 and the new a 74HCT4020. The
4020 allows a slower clock interrupt rate this being selectable by
jumper 7, because of this there exist EPROMs for both rates.
