Description: For sale is the current revision of the Glitch Works XT-IDE, rev 4B. This is a hobbyist offering of our industrial IDE solution for PCs. It is available as a bare board, full parts kit, or assembled and tested. Revision 4B changes are minor and are mostly to ease assembly. We are the original designers of the XT-IDE project files used by most of the clone boards available on eBay, none of which use high quality selective hard gold plated boards, and many of which ship with used or salvage components. This listing is for the fully assembled and tested (in an real IBM 5160 PC/XT!) Glitch Works XT-IDE rev 4B. If you would like a DIY kit or just the bare board (you supply all components), please see our other listings. For kits and assembled boards, component selection may differ slightly from those pictured. You can read more about this revision of the XT-IDE controller, its development, and its features at the project page on our site; unfortunately, due to eBay's external links policies, we can't provide links to them here. This project is 100% open source hardware, licensed under the GNU GPL v3. You can find the source files for the board layout, schematics, jumper setting diagrams, and a complete Bill of Materials on the GitHub page. This is a new made, high quality PC board with the following features: Standard 0.062" thickness FR4 substrateSelective hard gold plated edge connector (much thicker than ENIG)45 degree edge chamfer for easier card insertionHASL surface finish with leaded solder for easy solderabilityAll components and settings described in silkscreen legendFully open source -- board schematics and layout available on GitHubThe XT-IDE works with the XT-IDE Universal BIOS, another completely open source project, to provide IDE hard disk support for vintage computers with 8-bit IDE busses. These include the IBM 5150 PC, IBM 5160 PC/XT, and many compatible clones. We ship kits and preassembled boards with EEPROMs pre-programmed with the XT-IDE Universal BIOS v1.1.5 configured for I/O at 0x300 (default). We do combine shipping on multiple orders, just request an invoice at checkout! Do note that this listing is for our hobbyist offering, and we will not support it in industrial applications! If you need industrial support, you must purchase a serialized industrial configuration from us. Contact us for details.
