  • 68000 @ 14.32 MHz, synchronous to the motherboard
  • software and jumper switchable 7 or 14 MHz mode
  • optional PGA FPU up to 16 MHz with separate oscillator
    notes
  • jumper selectable Fast ROM mode for accessing the Kickstart ROM with reduced wait states
  • some DMA devices (for example the A590) do not work when the board runs at 14 MHz, unless the PAMC board is modified (trace cut)

  • electrically the same as the A2000 version, it only differs in its shape to allow the installation of Agnus expansions (like the MegAChip)
