A collection of  sunshine PE1ABR  EW-904B and EW904BN oriented diagrams, add-ons and modifications


  sunshine PE1ABR

Links to reverse engineered EW904B and EW904BN drawings
Lots of add-on information


Drawings are in PDF format.
  Preferably copy to HD first

Reverse engineered and NOT available anywhere else,
but now for download available over here:

Almost all the drawings are made available in PDF format.

You MUST have Adobe Acrobat reader installed, see at the bottom of this page.
I try to keep PDF's compatible as low as AR version 5, some even AR3 !
If problems: copy PDF files to harddisk first without double click, but with "copy to"



At Robert Madsen's place - More Sunshine info from me:

Many TTL-PROM read-out adapters for an Eprom socket
Suitable for many, many types of TTL-PROMs
Designed for reverse engineering purposes

First version PROMS circuit diagram in PDF
Updated 2nd version PROMS circuit diagram in PDF
Special version adapter for the Philips MX294 PROMS in PDF
Add-on circuit for the first version read-out adapters in PDF
(In this add-on: more security circuits added, Vcc ON-led,
databus protection, forced pull-up or down for don't care bits)

A very complete PROM reference guide in PDF, over 40 different PROM
(and about 10 TTL RAM) footprint types in 2 varieties from over 15 manufacturers. Now over 50 pages!
Hacked from the net, copied, extended and edited
by me to give it a decent booklet shape:

The TTL PROM list, now V5 ! the print version

A cheap PLCC-adapter to program PLCC EPROMS

I made use of (cheap) STANDARD PLCC sockets, NO ZIF version!!!!
For occasional use OK, removal with a special extraction tool.
(a.o. from Conrad / Germany: order code is 14 94 70 PLCC Tool
Price indication about 10 U.S. dollar or Euro)
I made 2 versions: one for 2764 / 27128 / 27256 / 27512 eproms.
and one for 27C010 / 27C020 / 27C040 eprom versions
