RAM Disk
Battery-backed SRAM powered by the wall power when present, the AA batteries when wall power is absent, and the CR2430 coin cell when wall power and AA batteries are absent.
Internal ram upgrade socket can take a single chip, either 32K or 128K.
- 32K: 32Kx8 parallel SRAM, 5v, low power, DIP-28
- 128K: 128Kx8 parallel SRAM, 5v, low power, DIP-32
Many different chips are compatible. Here are just a few for example & reference:
- Hitachi HM628128LP
- (best battery life) Alliance AS6C1008-55PCN from DigiKey or from Mouser
- ICSI IS62C1024LL-70W also LL or L, 70 or 55
- BSI BS62LV1024PC-70 also 1025 or 1027 or 1028, PC or PI, 70 or 55
- Toshiba TC551001CP-70L
- AMIC LP621024D-70LL
- Goldstar GM76C8128
- Samsung KM681000BLP-7L
- ASI MT5C1008CW-70L/883C
The following do not come in a DIP package, but for future reference would also work with a simple adapter pcb:
- Cypress CY62128E
- ISSI IS62C1024AL / IS65C1024AL
