ROM-el programming

ROM-el programming

Success! It may not look like much, but I was able read and write to one of a handful of ROM-el 23128 replacements using my TL866II and XGpro. These will go in my C128 and C16 builds.

The files to produce the ROM-el adapter PCB are on the go4retro GitHub, while the ROM-els are $10 each to buy from go4retro.

Flying leads would have been preferable, so as not to have to solder to the ROM-el, but soldering works for now.

Hopefully the picture helps someone who has been considering these, but hasn’t figured out how to flash them! I don’t populate a socket for the 2364 version, but the adaptor can accommodate both.
