These are a series of boards developed to achieve MSX+ compatibility.
The idea is that you can build each board one at a time, test it and play with it under RomWBW - and then once you have the set - load up some MSX games!
A working/bootable MSX system can be constructed in various configurations. You can have all Yellow series modules, or use a mixture of Yellow and stock RC2014 modules.
For a bootable MSX system you need at least:
| Name | Options |
|---|---|
| Backplane | The RC2014 Pro can work, although some signals will need to be connected via jumpers. The Yellow 12+1 Backplane is recommended. |
| CPU | The Yellow Turbo CPU module or a stock RC2014 Z80 |
| Memory | The MSX Memory Module is required. |
| Keyboard | The PPI Module & Keyboard is required. |
| Video | The Yellow V99x8 MSX Video Module is required. |
| Sound | The Yellow YM2149 Game Module is highly recommended. |

Save your MSX-BASIC programs to cassette tape and give your Z80 access to a wide range of USB devices. (USB Module compatible with RomWBW)
A Z80 CPU module supporting speeds up to 20Mhz - but with the required wait states and clock control to ensure compatibility with existing software and RC2014 modules.
A Backplane for RC2014 systems, with 80 lanes, ideal for MSX configuration.
