    Which other Macs have suitable GLU chips for the SE/30?

    General Logic Unit? Seems you're correct. Says GLUE on the SE/30 silkscreening. What does the E stand for ?

    absolutely not sure but it's my best theory at the moment because it had a good deal of corrosion when it came off the bombed board. Pins were OK and it cleaned up ok. Wouldn't hurt to have another if I can pick up a iici or whatever relatively cheap.

    Testing chips in circuit with an Oscilloscope

    (for idiots perhaps...). I've got a Simasimac reloaded SE/30 board and I suspect the GLU chip is at fault. It cleaned up well but was kinda rough when I got it off the bombed board. I have checked all pin continuity several times and everything checks out to destinations. No bridges also...

    Mac SE/30 - "Long Chime of Death" Start-Up Sound & Horizontal Stripes

    I did try but nobody ever responded to my request. I might pop in every once in awhile. I just noticed this was the exact issue I'm currently having with my reloaded board.

    Mac SE/30 - "Long Chime of Death" Start-Up Sound & Horizontal Stripes

    Hi, did Will explain the root cause of the slow death chime and horizontal lines? Sorry if I missed that in the thread. I'm in the exact same situation with my reloaded board. Thanks for any info. sorry I see the explanation now. Disregard.

    A few SE/30 Reloaded Build Questions

    It's true. Apologies for asking again but I figured I'd get all my questions in one post and was still hoping there would be some way to test it with an oscilloscope, multimeter and the datasheet if it exists. I will accept defeat lol.

    A few SE/30 Reloaded Build Questions

    As I’m working on an SE/30 reloaded board, a few questions have arisen, If anyone would like to offer any knowledge or advice, I’d appreciate it. 1] U32 Crystal Oscillator (see pic) appears to be polarized based on the silkscreen on the board? As I was cleaning the parts, the writing on the top...

    Dim patch on SE/30 screen?

    Full recap of the analog board is pretty easy and cheap compared to other restoration needs. No reason not to do that.

    Is there a way to tell which SE/30's had Maxell batteries?

    hmmm..seemed like a reasonable question. Just wondered if it was a certain range of years. Thanks for the info anyway.
