Board MPU CPU *** This set of board
images below were sent to me with the descriptions above` Sales ads`…that
all together form a little bit of a mystery` Nowhere in the descriptions
are Wimi or Miss Bowling Turbo mentioned, yet the
first couple of boards are that`
CPU PR328C -
TURBO CPU PR328C -
TURBO Equally
interesting, is that the file names are correct: MISS BOWLING TUR V2.jpg (I
am not too sure about the V2 reference) I can “only”
assume that these boards were added into the “sales ads” for reference, which
kind of makes sense` Miss Bowling TUR
JOGI CPU
BOARD
JOGI CPU BOARD Clearly the
designs are similar and have a common origin even though they are from Bingos from two
different companies: Wimi and the John Gille Company The main
difference between the red boards is the generation: The Turbo boards are
328s and the JoGi boards are 128s and besides the
“machine specific” differences, the daughter cards seem to be separated by a
generation too. And I guess that
I am not surprised, we know that there is a lot of cross-over and shared
resources between the
Belgium companies`…and here is looks like we found another example` Check the
text/silkscreen on the green daughter card: JOGI CPU BOARD CPU PR 128 As to the CPUs, on
these JoGi boards you see the part number on the
back of the boards`…the solder-side of the pcbs` What is part of
the mystery here are the MPUs, which I assume are green daughter cards` And I assume that
the part numbers in the “sales ads” are on the backside that we do not see` MPU CPU*23ZN and MPU CPU*16ZN Here we get to
see the top side (components side) of a 128 Here they try to
show us the EPPROM chip sets for the 128s There are a bunch
of 128 pictures`…some boards with 5 and some with 6 EPPROMS Also showing a
bunch of boards that have been repaired and a few other configurations` This
configuartion closer to the 328 This “rare gem”
is not even referenced in the “sales ads” – A system “Key” Now here is the
real mystery`…where are these JoGi boards in the
Bingos http://danny.cdyn.com/John%20Gille%20Carioca%20Pinball%20-%20I.htm http://danny.cdyn.com/Copacabana%20Internals%20JGC%201.htm ?? |
