Boomerang TANDY Color Computer 3 RAM Expansion v1.0
This set of PCBs will augment the TANDY Color Computer 3 memory with 2MB
RAM support. The RAM is inserted into the 512kB RAM expansion slot
location, with 2 additional address lines connected to a dynamic address
translation (DAT) board that sits under the CPU. The DAT board adds 2
additional bits to all 16 MMU mapping registers.
The DAT board also contains an RGB LED that can be programmed via BASIC
or ML.
In normal mode, the LED is controlled by $ffef as follows:
IO Location Bit Location Description
$ffef 7:6 (00 = all, 01 = RED, 10 = GRN, 11 = BLU)
4:0 Intensity
The LED can alo operate in "speed" mode, where the red LED will signify
the CoCo running in "slow" mode and the green LED denotes "fast" mode.
To turn on this mode, one must access a sequence of RAM locations:
?peek($fdfd): rem reset lock
?peek($fd55): rem $55
?peek($fdaa): rem $aa
?peek($fdff): rem $ff
