Hi Oscar,

the adapter works perfectly Smiley

At first the adapter didn't work using PCI Slot 4 even with different INT settings, but it works without problems on Slot 1. Both power supply modes work.

Here a view pictures from the adapter and the testrun:

I agree Smiley

My version will be low-end/low-cost. It features 66MHz, a very slim design and is reduced when it comes to the needed parts. Oscars version is the highend part Smiley

@Oscar: I'm also thinking about special brackets for the adapter that feature a VGA cutting. This way you can melt the adapter and the VGA card together so it can be easily mounted in a case. Two friends of mine could do the job. Of course we will need different types of brackets (5500 AGP, 6000 and so on).

The adapter should as slim as possible.
if you mount the adapter later in an pci2pcie adapter you must modify the Pc case...that is a common problem Smiley

Hi all,

work continues and the signal traces for layer 1 and 4 are finished.

The adapter is 0,5cm lower than the original design.

Hi,

New small batch is here. AGP3.0

This new version add:
  • New design
  • Jumper for set 33/66MHz
  • New hole to add a front/back small heatsink using holes from bracket. It is recomended if you want to use V5-6000 8xFSAA stable.
  • PCB better quality thickness PCB is 1.7mm instead of 1.29


AGP2.0 never saw the light since project was stopped. It had as important feature works by default 66MHz but not possible to set it 33MHz.

Here some fast pics:

BATCH 4 SAMPLES.
...
...

NEW HOLE FOR ADDING HEATISNK
...
...

TURBO JUMPER SET 33/66MHz
...

Now I need to soder components and test all the feautures work well.

Regards,
Oscar.
