Subject: ISO M100, M102, M633 flip chips for DEC TC08N controller
Hey all --
I have a TC08 DECtape controller that I'd like to convert to a TC08N
(the
negibus version of the TC08). If I'm reading the documentation right,
this
involves swapping in a few flip chips -- M100 for the installed M101,
M102
for M103, and M633 for M623.
If anyone has any of these, please drop me a line. Curious also if
anyone
out there has done this conversion and can comment on whether my
assessment
is correct...
Thanks!

I might be preaching to the choir here, but if you can't find originals,
this website is an absolute goldmine for flip-chip schematics. If you
can find the components (or modern equivalents) it might be worth making
your own.

Yep, Vince has made an awesome site with a lot of incredibly useful things,
and if I have to I'll build my own replacements, should be fun. But if I
can find original parts, I'd much prefer to use them.
Thanks!
