A500 SRAM Replacement Board

As with the previous DRAM board project, this will allow you to replace the old 44256 DRAM chips on your A500 with newer SRAM memory - a single 8Mbit chip, in fact.

It's a lot simpler design, as there's just the single SRAM chip, a single 74ABT00 Quad NAND and a 74ABT821 10-bit D-Type Flip-Flop multiplexing the address lines.

The SRAM chip is a CY62157ESL-45ZSXI available from Mouser for less than £9 (at time of writing).

Ignore the image of the sockets, it's what KiCad generates as the 3D model.

Project is all done in KiCad 5.1.2
