It's a 60 pin connector. 8-bit ISA is 62 pins, 16-bit ISA is 98 pins.
So if they just merged some grounds, 60-pins is totally doable.

Storage is on a 2 gigabyte CF card. It's got Dos 7.1, Windows 95, and a few games pre-installed on it, plus a driver for the CH375 USB storage chip Games included: there's also the SBVGM audio player, which includes "Funky Stars" and the whole soundtrack of PlanetX3 @foone Hell, yeah! Gotta include the Hybrid song, even when you don't have a device capable of playing the original sampled tracker version! @foone Wait! What the fuck! I don't actually have an OPL version of the Hybrid song. Yo! Can we get that "Funky Stars" file! @foone Does it *have* any digital audio? Because I've only seen literally the OPL3, so hypothesized it was synth-only (time to dust off the MIDI sound efffects that I think fraggle might have uncovered in DOOM, or at least boosted). @LionsPhil no, unless you bitbang some PWM out of the PC Speaker (like lots DOS of MOD-trackers, and some games - e.g. RealSound - used to do). But that will sound very bad on a piezo. Also: this is a 386*SX* (16bit, no cache) so Doom is already stretching it. @foone i know that this is the absolutely worst thing to ask, but after your excellent teardown there is only one question that's unasked: will it blend!!!? 👌 (Grats and thanks for a nicely done teardown.🔧 ) |
The other connector is 12 pins:
This one is PS/2 and VGA. An adapter is included with the device.
