IBM 5161 expansion chassis extender and receiver cards

This project duplicates both the extender and receiver cards used in the IBM 5161 expansion chassis. This is a box that looks identical to an IBM PC, only it has simple backplane instead of a motherboard. An extender card located in a host PC/XT system connects to a receiver card located in the expansion chassis using a large 62-pin D-sub cable.

Even if you don't own (all or part) of an IBM 5161, this project may still be useful to you. It works perfectly with various passive ISA backplanes! There is one slight catch--the 14.318MHz ISA bus clock signal is generated on the IBM backplane but…
