This card is a remake of James Pearce's XT-CF-Lite card, which in its turn is a simplified version of his CPLD based XT-CF card andshares some ideas with XT-IDE card. This card allows connecting a Compact Flash (CF) card to computers with ISA bus and using it as a mass storage device. The card also supports BIOS extension ROM.
This kit is based on anopen-sourcedesign.This Compact Flash IDE Adapter along with the ISA-backplane kit which I sell separately (see my other listings) is used to build a fully functioning IBM PC clone which is able to run most of the IBM/PC compatible software of the era.

Please note:
  • Two cards on a single machine are not supported even if they are on a different address.
  • This is an advanced electronics project and success in the first attempt is not guaranteed.
  • Chips are mix of new, new/old stock and renewed/refurbished, some chips may show their age.
  • Finally visitwiki.noami.usfor build guides and tips. Don't forget to open an account and share your experiencewith the build!
  • EEPROM comes pre-programmed
  • If purchasing the non-fully assembled version,then you will need to solder on a surface mount style CF connector. Solder paste has flux mixed in and over time it degrades. To ensure a good quality solder job please use paste that is fairly new (< few months old) else solder will form bridges.
  • Solder on the connector first. Once its soldered-oncheck for shorts before proceeding with installing the rest of the components
  • Regarding refunds forinternational orders. International shipping is expensive so unfortunately the products I send international will need be sold as is with no returns/replacements. I will continue to offer support on how to resolve issues and if replacement parts are needed then those can be purchased separately.
I also sell the ISA backplane with parts compatible with this processor board. Please see my other listing.
This kit is based on an open-sourcedesign. Parts are readily available online. The majority of the cost of the kit is the integrated chips. I only make a very small commission to offset the selling fees and time spent assembling the kit and providing support.
