I have to admit, I totally forgot! and the iBook in question is still sitting disassembled in a box awaiting some new RAM as the onboard appears to be bad
I am still interested in trying it but will have to see if i can find some GL's closer to home or get someone to proxy them as the shipping...
Nicely done! Once you get over the initial hurdle BGA rework gets fairly easy quickly, before you know it you be swapping CPU's on everything just because you can!
Also it's always amusing to se a new post in a thread of yours form 2016 :) I should really get back to that iMac project, it's...
Even RS components dose that now, drives me up the wall. "Here's 100 random items rather than just saying we don't stock the thing you searched for". Though if we are moaning about search features I would like to complain about how searching by price on ebay / amazon magically makes half the...
I would comment but recently spent far too much building a P4 desktop I haven't even used. Probably spent more than £200 on parts, was the PC worth that? No. but they where the exact parts (or as close as I could reasonably find) to the first PC I ever had as a kid. Retro nostalgia is now...
Gerbers and schematic are now on GitHub

As with my other designs these are provided under a non-commercial licence but if you are a repairer and want to offer transplant services (or have any other commercial use in mind) please contact me...
Indeed, the battery charger IC gets upset if there is no battery installed
I had hoped to get around this by using a higher power charge IC in the newer revision but this still can't cope with he peak demands with no battery fitted. I may look at installing some kind of battery sense circuit...
Te clones have all 5 rom packs built into the unit, as @robin-fo says all that needs to be added is the battery (Which I can't include due to shipping restrictions)
Right, I think I have maybe PM'd everyone that expressed interest but it's getting late and I have probably missed people.... If that;s you pleas PM me :)
Just came across this this again when going back through the thread, the answer is maybe. The IIci and IIsi share some customs, specifically the RBV and MDU, ignoring the NuBus controller and bus transceivers the only other custom parts not shared with the IIsi are the ADB controller (a very...
Boards have arrived and been tested!
These have a couple of modifications you may be able top see:
There is now a ATX connector behind the NuBus slots for people who wish to replace the original PSU, just keep in mind this will prevent most full length NuBus cards being installed in the left...
I have used my Dataman 48LV to program these successfully but as Bolle says these are not cheap. Cost me a shade over £200 iirc but you can sometimes find them much cheaper if you look around (Though keep in mind this specific model is a parallel programmer and the software only officially...
Unfortunately I am no longer selling these in kit form, Although I know lots of people like kits I found the ones of these I sold in kit form required allot of support during assembly and remote debugging afterwards which I just don't have the time to do. Going forward I am only going to be...
Well if someone wants to donate a LC PDS video card to the cause! :ROFLMAO:
Adding multiple PDS cards gets a bit more complicated as you have to handle card selection, smooshing one card and a accelerator together is much easier as the accelerator is not really a PDS card. Maybe I need to get...
Yep.
I have looked many, many times as getting PCB's produced in Europe and it;s just uneconomical for hobbiest level stuff. One IIcx board would cost me about 2-3x the total cost of 5 of them shipped from JLC last time I looked. And that's assembly
Even among Chinese manufacturers JLC tends to...
