Rumor has it that Teo Zenios may have mentioned these words:
So if I have the original code and know what chip it
needs to be programmed
on I might be in luck, otherwise there is little hope?
Are PAL's or GALs expensive to get? Do people here have access to
programmers?
I have a programmer that can do older PALs and/or GALS -- not enough brains
to actually use it, tho.[1]
Older PALs/GALs/PEELs can be had pretty cheaply at www.bgmicro.com (It's a
US company, dunno what's available worldwide, tho they might ship
worldwide... you'd have to ask them) - maybe someday I'll actually be able
to figure out how to program some of those critters.
Hope this helps,
Roger "Merch" Merchberger
[1] I do know how to use my programmer for EPROMs, but I've never
programmed a PAL/GAL before.
