SROM interface on a Jensen
Anyone know what the pinouts are for the SROM interface on a Jensen
(PB22H-KB) motherboard? I am assuming the keyed 7-pin connector just
south of the SROM chip itself is the SROM debug interface. I have
tried tracing the lines on the motherboard but only 3 pin's traces
appear on the top or bottom of the motherboard and they disappear under
logic chips. I am also assuming that I can hook up a serial connection
to this to get some sort of output while the machine is booting. Since
it always dies with diagnostic LEDs on 1011 (3210) "A machine check
occured during the memory or cache access".

I've got one, but I think that shipping fee does not worth the board

Re: SROM interface on a Jensen
I probably could find a replacement, but my desire is to fix this
machine. Since it was running a few years ago, and I would like to
know what I did to it to wreck it. That and I like hardware hacking,
making old hardware useful, and make old hardware do new tricks. Since
I don't have a 21064 evaluation board, I'm hoping to make do with a
Jensen I don't use.
