Manufacturer CardCo / C-Ltd., USA | Date 1986 | Amiga A1000 | Interface side expansion port | Autoconfig ID 1004 / 245 |
- 32 DIP sockets for 1 MB RAM
- 256k×1, 150 ns DIPs
- the memory is autoconfigured under KickStart 1.2
- Intel C8208 DRAM controller
- all components are socketed
- connects to the side expansion port
- optional passthrough connector - multiple aMEGA boxes can be connected together
- early versions were buggy and generated too much wait-states, performing slower than Chip RAM - cutting a trace and soldering a wire fixes it

- clock
- battery backed up clock
- connects between the A1000 and the keyboard
- intercepts every keystroke before it's sent to the computer
- allows the creation of keyboard macros, a combination of two or more keys which are translated into whole strings of characters
- a predefined set of macros is already saved in EPROM
- features an 8 bit microprocessor, 8 kB RAM and 8 kB EPROM
- needs no special software to set the Amiga's clock, it simply sends an AmigaDOS Date command with the current date and time
- the clock is controlled by the Help key + one of the function keys (eg. Help + F4 allows setting the clock, Help + F5 reads the current time)
- the 'auto macro' feature automatically plays a macro after booting
- optional password function (without the proper password the Amiga does not boot) - the maximum password length is 4 characters
- command history for up to 1000 characters
- two different versions for american and german keyboard layouts
- all chips are socketed
