Well it's done, and It's working :)
I had a bit of a false start with a "gammy" SYNMON" eprom,
I borrowed the CEGMON from my REV. B board and my REV. D is fully functional, and populated.
Thanks everyone for the boards and support, :) 502 is next, along with 541B and 542. :)

Cheers. :)

He He, ok not exactly done, I still have to install the matrix of keyboard switches and caps,
and some kind of support for the Space bar. :) but at least the electronics and computerie bits work. :)

Cheers.

Thank you. :)

I thought it might be a nice way to hook up the very few things that might need to be connected there. :)

Cheers. :)

I think I'm gonna have to harvest keys from a usb mx keyboard I purchased. Blue MX keys,
I'm hoping they are 5 pin :)

I harvested some blue MX switches from a usb keyboard.
I have not soldered these in yet, but will most likely do that tomorrow...

I will post pictures of the completed board later today. These mx blues (harvested keys at least) bounce a bit. When the brand new Gateron keys come in, I will replace them. But she works.
