About the C128-dcr dual sid PCB
C128-dcr dual sid is an open source PCB design by ytmytm, published on GitHub under the MIT license. It is a 2-layer board measuring 67.8 × 41 mm, with 19 components from 12 distinct parts.
Other key parts include the MOS_6581 and SID_ADAPTER. By type, the board carries 5 resistors, 4 jumpers, 4 capacitors, 2 ICs, 1 module and 1 connector.
It belongs with the audio and retro computing designs in this gallery.
From the project
Dual SID for C128DCR
This is a daughterboard that allows to have dual SID audio in a C128DCR. Although C128DCR has a huge case the space near SID and MMU is very awkward due to power supply.
This project is meant for two 8580 chips, as far as I know the only type installed in C128DCRs. But you never know, so just in case I left information about supporting 6581 SIDs too.
The goal of this project was to make the PCB fit in the narrow area between power supply and already installed 256K MMU expansion.
