Type 2 and Type 3 boards are out of stock and none available for sale at the moment

We were migrating the chips on the boards from 5V versions to 3.3V versions (using regulator for power source). Some in the batches made up are showing problems which we think are related to power up timing of the ECU and regulator

Unfortunately with Xilinx 5V chips phased out and Simtek chips phased out this year current revision boards are no longer available. Once new ones have had these issues resolved they will be made available on the website

All current efforts obviously will be directed at getting these new versions working!!

Sooooo... no type2 or type3 board available . Do you have any idea until when Matt? the type3 boards are the ones that interest me the most since i have allot of B13 clients.

Should be in the next week or so. Pete has put a new batch together of Type 3 boards with 3.3V parts loaded for testing which I will be doing today

Boards are available in stock - limited quantities for the next week until we get more parts

The parts we have used on our boards since designing Nistune back in 2006 have now gone obsolete (Xilinx XC9536 and Simtek 11C88)

Replacement 3.3V parts Xilinx XC9536XL and Cypress CY14B256LA will be replacing these parts using a 3.3V drop down regulator on the board itself. These have been undergoing testing to ensure stability and integrity of data in the last few weeks

Some of our boards (Type 2 and a small batch of Type 3) have been running the 3.3V Xilinx parts already whilst we managed stock and migrated to the new chip sets. Eventually all boards will contain the updated parts.
