Q22-Q22. Older boxes can be wired for either
IIRC that's true of the BA23 but the larger BA123 is four slots of
Q-CD and then serpentine Q-Q.
The even newer BA200 series (BA213/BA214) and probably everything
after that (which is mostly just the BA400 stuff) is AFAIK all Q-CD.
Are you sure? I believe my BA215 has at least 5 Q-CD slots
(well, I think
anyway) as I have the cpu board and 4 memory boards in it.
Come to think of it, don't these only have 6 slots?
Sure about which bit? I'm reasonably sure that the BA123 (old style
world box most often used for the MicroVAX II) is four slots of
Q22-CD and then serpentine Q22-Q22. I'm fairly sure the BA23 (smaller
box, same size as the Rainbow) has one less Q22-CD slot (hence it has
3).
I'm sure that the BA200 series boxes are all Q22-CD, and the BA200
Series Module Design Guide agrees with me there. In fact, I think
you were agreeing with me too, unless you meant BA123 where you typed
BA215.
