- processor
- 68020 @ 16.67 MHz, PGA
- optional PGA FPU, no MMU
- memory
- 1 MB RAM installed, expandable to 4 MB
- 32 DIP sockets
- takes 256k×4, 80 ns or faster DIPs
- non-autoconfiguring
- hardware maprom
- does not support DMA to its 32 bit RAM, it affects the A590 badly - DMAfix can solve this
- notes
- connects to the 68000 socket, the 68000 is replaced onto the board
- 68000 fallback mode - the software can switch from 68030 to 68000 but cannot switch back, the machine has to be switched off
- HDToolBox gets confused with the board (it works correctly in fallback mode)
- memory is not available in fallback mode
