MIDIbox SID-NUXX Boards Complete

July 30, 2006

There we go, the three MIDIbox SID-NUXXs which I’m assembling.

The top one is ‘s, and is fully setup and working using one of the SIDs which was nice enough to send me. I just have to drop ‘s SID into it and it’ll be ready to go. Oh, and maaaaybe change the resistors, depending on how the LEDs look with those. (The LEDs will generally be brightness matched to the LCD.)

The other two are mine, with the top one being a 12V version for a 6581 SID, and the bottom being 9V for an 8580. Neither of these have been fitted with their socketed ICs, and I also left out the resistors which control LED brightness. Of course, this means that neither of mine have been tested, but they should work.

With any luck I’ll have a pair of OLEDs to play with sometime within the next few days. Provided these work as expected, they are what I’ll be using to display things on my MIDIbox SID-NUXXs. ‘s will get the CFAH2002A-RMI-JP which can be seen here, not set right, and very overexposed.

< smile > This is finally all coming together.
