This is a 906114-01 uPLA with high precision pin headers
If your Commodore C64 displays a black screen or strange characters then the problem could be the failure of the PLA U17 (MOS/CSG 906114-01)
But remember that most of the time the problem depends on the PLA but to be sure a test with the "DEAD TEST" cartridge should always be verified, because other components cause black screen / strange characters (RAM,SN74LS257,ecc)
I have made even this DEAD TEST CARD (check my Store)
TESTED and Guarantees 100% compatibility and operation with the following ASSY MOTHERBOARDS
- KU-14194- 326298- SX-64- 250407- 250425- 250466
DETAILS
Professional & industrial PCB quality
Extreme layout,the smallest uPLA replacement (35mm x 17mm)
Equipped with precision pin headers to plug on your motherboard socket U17 position. Pins are 0.018" (0.46mm) to ensure they do not cause extra wear on your socket. Gold plated to ensure the best possible contact
PCB designed for double Vsupply filtering
Tested with Super Zaxxon and Epyx fastload cartridges for full compatibility
Timing and CAS->CASRAM delay measured with AGILENT Oscilloscope : 30ns instead 29ns that is the value of original Commodore PLA
Ultra low consumption at 7,5mA compared to
a) 90mA for original PLA
b) 70mA for GAL20V8 based PLA
c) 20mA for Xilinx XC9536XL based PLA
