not sure if
it's on-topic here, but anyway...
i have an ISA board marked 'Sanyo LAT-200A'. it contains amd286 cpu,
couple of headland chips, four SIMM sockets, and two (even/odd) empty
bios sockets. does anybody know what it is, where to find bios images
and how to use it?
Sounds like a single board computer for a passive backplane. Finding a
BIOS probably isn't gonna be easy. You may be able to get it from the
company that made the board, or you might be able to copy the BIOS from a
286 motherboard that uses the exact same chipset.
Are there any markings on the board? What chipset does it use?
hm. markings? besides 'Sanyo LAT-200A' there is '2EC4BIPB32100
revision 2' ('I' or '1', don't know). chipset is made by
Headland
Technology, three IC's are marked as: HT101A/B14A4924, GC113-PC
and HT102/B1A4000. there are also two sanyo chips: PH80C42A
and MB622160/16LT-DUAL.
what 'passive backplane' should do? provide power from PSU?
what will happen if i stick this into a normal pc?
