Hi All,

Thank you for your input.

I most likely will scrap the PS2 connectors as they take up so much room, and use a header to gain connectivity if required, I might make a small daughter PCB that has the Audio jack and kb/mouse on it..

I have ordered one of these to strip down.




It would be easy enough to use the cables and terminate them at a header to match the main board..


As to the flash memory, I have bought 10 to play with (A massive 55c AU each for the W25Q64FVSSIG).

I have had a quick scan of the data sheet and I am a little concerned about the following specs.




I am yet to determine what Fr really means but if operating at 80MHz/33Mhz the max Vcc seems to be 3.0v

Hmmm... I am sure they work well but just a thing to ponder

Kind Regards,

Mick
