- processor
- 68LC040 / 68040 @ 25 MHz
- can be upgraded to 50 MHz with the Doubler 4000
- general notes
- no memory option - slow motherboard RAM access
- memory can be added with the X-Calibur memory expansion board
- does not support the 040's burst RAM access (7/7/7/7 clock cycles - 14.3 MB/s memory bandwidth)
- on many A3640's the electrolyt capacitors are mounted in the wrong direction, reducing lifetime - even the PCB print is wrong
- A3640's made by Amiga Technologies have the capacitors in the right direction, but the PCB print is still wrong
- A3000 notes
- only v3.1 or v3.2 versions of the board work in A3000
- v3.1 works but has problems with certain Zorro cards which use DMA
- v3.2 works correctly
- with Kickstart 2.04 the card does not work with the combination of Ramsey-04 and static column fast RAM
- at least bank 0 should be page mode RAM
- the combination of Ramsey-07 and DMAC-04 works perfectly
- with Kickstart 3.1 there's no such problem
