Re: SD I/O 1.8MHz resonator
You could cheat and just use the original part: https://www.taydaelectronics.com/ceramic-resonator-1-80mhz-3-pins.html
You'll probably have to wait a few weeks, however :-{.

Re: SD I/O 1.8MHz resonator
You can order direct from Tayda Electronics, and they *are* stocked (3,988,888 parts claimed).

Lee,
That's brilliant! Thank you for the information.
And thank you everyone for your help as well.
Now the wait for the boards to arrive...

No; it doesn't autobaud.
But there are two serial ports; one on the Z80-CPU board, and another on the Z80-SIO board.
The one on the CPU board uses the 4 MHz resonator; so it will

Humm ... This adds another gremlin in the equation. I'm starting to regret
ordering only the PCBs.
But hey, there isn't any fun without problems to solve. I may have a

Re: SD I/O 1.8MHz resonator
A 10% error is really too big, for serial communications.? It miiiight still work, but I strongly doubt it, because by the time you get to the end of the character (10 bits in - start, 8-data, stop),

Re: SD I/O 1.8MHz resonator
Hi Lee,
I would be comfortable in flipping a byte or two on the EPROM image, I managed to find a programmer that can burn 27256 chips so that also wouldn't be an issue.
May I ask which bytes should

Yes, I'm having trouble getting the 1.8 MHz resonators as well. Mouser quit carrying them, so I bought my last batch from Tayda2009 on ebay. But they seem to have gone out

Re: SD I/O 1.8MHz resonator
Josh: does your serial code do autobaud - i forget? If so it would probably be fine.

Re: SD I/O 1.8MHz resonator
That's like 10% error.? So, 9600 baud becomes 10360 baud.? Should work... only 1 way to find out.

SD I/O 1.8MHz resonator
Good morning all,
This is proving to be another hard to find component, so I got a 2MHz one instead. If I understood correctly there's a direct correlation with the terminal baud rate provided by the

Q1 and Q4 (on the Z80MC Front Panel) are only needed for RS-232 serial. So they can be left out. :-)
An N-channel MOSFET (like a 2N7000 or BS170) might work for Q2 and Q3.
