Description

A Backplane for RC2014 systems, with 80 lanes, ideal for MSX configuration

A 13 slot backplane for RC2014 compatible modules, well suited for the full complement of Yellow MSX Series of Modules designed for RC2014.

Primarily focused on the needs for supporting the full set of MSX modules, the 12+1 Backplane, with its 80 lanes and 13 slots, will meet the needs of any large RC2014 configurations.

And the 12 on-board yellow power LEDs will quite literally make your RC2014 system glow!

The 13th slot is offset slightly from the rest of the slots, to allow for connecting the MSX Cartridge slot extension

  • 13 RC2014 enhanced compatible slots
  • 13th slot offset an extra 1cm for future extension of the MSX Cartridge module
  • 80 Lanes
  • An optional on-board 5V DC converter
  • Reset tactile switch
  • 4 way power terminal block for easy extension or alternative powering
  • Optional direct 5V in via DC barrel connector
  • 12 5V LEDs between each slot
  • 8 3.4mm Mounting holes for M3 fitting

Please note that mounting stand-offs are not supplied.

What is the ‘Yellow MSX Series of Boards’?

These are a series of boards developed to achieve MSX compatibility for RC2014 systems.

The idea is that you can build each board one at a time, test it and play with it under RomWBW – and then once you have the set – load up some MSX games!

This backplane kit will give you the perfect foundation for the RC2014 system.
