RE: Woodstock Low Power
FANTASTIC! (And congratulations on this excellent work!)
I've got a million questions, but for starters: - It sounds like the installation is designed for a Woodstock logic board with all the IC's removed, yes? Is it necessary / advisable to remove the power supply components as well? - Does it make any difference what Woodstock logic board is used as a host? - Will it use the same GPS module? Given the component removal, can it be installed facing up (assuming that will make a reception difference...not really sure if looking "through" the keyboard will be a help or a hindrance in that regard) - Where does the new low power module fit? On the section of the logic board now holding the ACT? or on the display end of the board? - Is there enough code space / IO / processor power to allow for a 1 PPS triggered/synchronized GPS time display? (The current GPS display appears limited by the accuracy of the NMEA stream and subsequent processing.) - Can the GPS time set the RTC? - Any possibility for an externally accessible interconnect to load/save programs or updates? (Perhaps replacing the existing - and presumably now completely vestigial - charger pins with a recessed micro connector or something?) Very nice!!! Thanks for all your work on these old gems! Bob PS And, of course, what printing mode will be used for the TRACE function :-) |
