[sebhc] Re: Great Idea for IDE MORE!! STATUS -- chips used

[bill malcolm]

HI:  this uses  the following chips
3  74hct32
1  74hct08
1  74hct04

This design is not mine  --  I found this used for the apple II  & would be
easy to use with the Z-80.
I also found that there  are  adapters  that connect to IDE and allows the
use of Flash Card memory.
I have received 3 of them from an ebay bid  in august.

This adapter    allows 2 devices
 That being the standard for IDE.

Boot code is needed  for this device
Since IDE is  much like to WD  floppy controller  < soft sector> that should
be easy>

Any suggestions are welcome.

I am going to  order the  ttl parts  soon --  as I plan to also order  USB
parts for another design idea.

bill ..
