All,
I am still thinking in my head about the best way to update the ECB Bus
Monitor board for 24-bit addresses and 16-bit data. I did a schematic
update to add the extra lines while keeping everything else the same.
Several additional 7400 series ICs need to be fit on the board to do this
"simple" update.
I had a lot of fancy ideas for character displays and TFT LCDs such, but
upon reflection the update speed of all of those things is pretty limited
which I think might decrease the usefulness of the bus monitor. So I'm
kind of setting that aside for now, in favor of the simpler update. Also
this is the first board revision I've tried to do on my own.
What are peoples thoughts about going to SIP switches and SIP LED bars on a
revision of the Bus Monitor? This would free up space for the additional
ICs needed to handle the extra channels.
Something like:

I'd still like to have some update ready to use in my ECB build.
