Macintosh IIfx Logicboard recreation

This is a recreation of the Macintosh IIfx logicboard.
It is not a 1:1 copy of the original logicboard but instead the original board was traced out to create schematics that were used to completely redesign and route a lookalike board.

Reverse engineered PALs

The original PALs have been reverse-engineered and equations were rewritten to match the behaviour of the originals - the provided JEDEC files are not dumps of the content of the original chips. The PALs handle most of the bus arbitration between the different DMA devices as well as controlling the fast/slow data- and address busses.

The provided JEDEC files are intended to be used with a 16V8/20V8-type device (GAL16V8, PALCE16V8, ATF16V8 and 20V8 respectively) Certain low power ATF16V8B don't work. ATF16V8C use pinkeepers instead of internal pullups and might be problematic as well.
