Hi Mike, I tried this: Used the unused pins 3, 4, 5, & 6 on the 74LS11 - didn't work, and I have other jobs I must do so will go back to it later. /MI was stuck High as I recall from an hour ago...but forgot to write it down...might have been /IORQ... I did find that your board did not actually ground pin 34 of the 2650 - I guess I should try that as it was floating. Thanks! John :-#)# On 2024/05/10 12:42 p.m., Mike Coates wrote:

It works on a Zaccaria Invaders PCB, which is all I have ever used it on.
If you get INTACK working let me know, I can always update the layout (especially if the gates needed are already on there!)

INTACK is INTerrupt ACKnowledge and is generated by the 2650. So, how does one get that out of a Z80 I wonder... Reading Osborne's excellent An Introduction To Microcomputers Volume 2, Some Real Microprocessors says this on page 7-10:
I'll try that - I think there is a spare gate or two I can use..
If it works I'll report back!

I've had this adapter sitting on a shelf since 2004 and just found a use for it when working on a Zaccaria pinball MPU. The problem is it doesn't work and it looks like the 2650 CPU has to drive INTACK, but it ties low in the original article on pages 9 &10 of TroubleshooterV1-1983-combined-searchable.pdf (on ftp list under Fluke/9XXX/Fluke Troubleshooter Magazine).
Anyone else use this adapter or made one that works for Zac. games?
Here is Mike's article:
