ASSEMBLY INSTRUCTIONS
===================
1.
Solder sockets for the integrated circuits
2.
Test all soldered connections
a.
Test if all pins are well connected
b.
Check if GND is not short connected to Vcc
c.
Check if each IC has properly connected GND and Vcc
3.
Solder all passive parts /capacitors, diode, resistors, push button,
crystal/
4.
Connect the power adapter and check
5.
Insert the CPU into its socket /keep the proper orientation!/ and try to
power it up. Check if oscillator lives /at CPU pin 37/
6.
Insert the essential ICs: 74245, 74573, 7400, 62256 and AT28C256. Again:
keep the proper orientation! Bad orientation can damage the IC!
7.
Connect the serial pins TxD, RxD and GND /pinhead JP1/ to the TTL-to-
USB converter
8.
Start the serial terminal on your PC, select proper serial port and set
the parameters to 115.200 Bd, 8 data bits, no parity, 1 stop bit.
9.
Power your Alpha and check the terminal.
