BLIZZARD Series
BLIZZARD 2040 ERC Turbo Board

68040 Accelerator board and Fast SCSI-II DMA Controller for Amiga 2000

The BLIZZARD 1240 T/ERC, a low cost 68040 based accelerator board for Amiga 2000. The abbreviation ERC stands for EcoReCycling meaning the processors used on this board are recycled and tested 68040 processors operating at 40MHz with MMU/FPU. By using these processors a very competitive pricing for the BLIZZARD 2040 ERC is possible. The board is axpandable to a total amount of 128 MB of RAM by four 72-channel standard-SIMM-sockets. All other specifications are the same as those for the well known BLIZZARD 2060.


Technical Data BLIZZARD 2060 Turbo Board:
  • Acceleration board for the Amiga 2000 with 40 MHz-68040 processor with FPU and MMU for highest and maximum performance
  • Four 72-channel standard-SIMM-sockets for the memory expansion up to 128 Mbyte main memory (merged assembly is also possible)
  • Automatic self-integrating (auto-configurating) memory with optional mirroring of the operating system (MAPROM-function, deselectable) for additional power increase
  • An extremely fast memory layout grants highest data throughput in the fast RAM
  • Asynchronous design for full Genlock-compatibility
  • Can be reset to 68000-processor through the keyboard for full compatibility with all software (possible with AMIGA 2000 model "B" only)
  • Integrated Fast SCSI-II DMA controller with transmission rates of up to 7 Mbyte/sec. asynchronous and up to 10 Mbyte/sec. synchronous on the SCSI-bus
  • Through DMA - transmission (Direct Memory Access) the processor on the BLIZZARD 2040 ERC Turbo Board is not charged. Thus, the BLIZZARD 2040 ERC Turbo Board is optimally suited for multimedia-applications
  • Solderless and simple assembly in the processor expansion slot of the AMIGA 2000
  • High-quality processing in latest SMD-technology
