Altair MITS S100 Backplane 8080A S-100 Replica IMSAI CP/M
This boardis a very close copy of the vintage board and have been produced by taking an unassembled Altair MITS Backplane and having it professionally scanned and converted to gerber files. The original 4 slot backplane is useful for fixing an original Altair, or if you insist on being true to the original early version. If your planning a larger S100 system or don't care to be authentic I'd suggest using a larger backplane as stringing two or more together is a royal pain!The reproduction Altair 4 slot backplane was produced using double thick PC board material (3.2mm). The original backplanes were produced in both standard PC board material (1.6mm) and the thicker (3.2mm) style. The thicker boards are much sturdier.
The Edge supports are 3D printed using ABS which has a high heat tolerance and closely matches the original Altair connectors. The printing takes about an hour for each edge support.This sale is for a bare PC Board and 8 of the Edge connectors ONLY.
The S100 connectors are Sullins EBA50DRTH and are available thru Digikey and other vendors. They use a narrow footprint which is different than many other S100 connectors. They are NOT included in the sale. Screws to mount the Edge connectors are also not included.Documentation including assembly manual is on the web ( rules foroffer me posting a link, but it will be included with the board).
Pictures of a completed backplane, and the S100 connectors are included so that you have an idea of what a completed board looks like.Please see my other listings for a replica of the IMSAI CPU board and IMSAI MPU-A CPU Board.
I am happy to accept returns if you are not pleased for any reason as long as the board is unassembled. You will need to pay return shipping only.
Postage is at my actual cost. If you order more than one board there is no additional shipping cost in the USA.
There may be a few times where it takes me an additional day or so to ship because of my travel.
