This is the "Pijus Magnificus" edition (full featured version)
PM me if you are interested.
There are currently two versions, or editions, of DivTIESUS: the basic one, which I call "Tiesus del tó", and the full featured one, nicknamed "Pijus Magnificus".
The features shared by both versions are:
DivMMC compatible interface with 8 KiB of EEPROM and 128 KiB of RAM. Standard utils for EEPROM flashing, as provided by the ESXDOS team, are compatible with DivTIESUS.
Model autodetection. This means you don't need to put a jumper, or flip a switch to change from using it with a Spectrum 48K and a +3.
Tested with ZX Spectrum 48K issue 1, 2, 3, 3B, 4A, 4B and 6A. NEC and Hitachi ROM chips. Also tested on Inves Spectrum, Spectrum 128K (both english and spanish versions), +2 grey, +2A, +2B and +3. Also tested on Harlequin 48K.
It uses its own fast clock (25 MHz). It does not need the CPU clock at all.
Rear expansion port continuation, allowing the user to plug another device. Note that ROMCS and other signals are not filtered.
NMI button to call file browser in ESXDOS, and handy RESET button. The RESET button is placed so that it won't be accidentally pressed while operating the interface.
Full size SD socket: it can hold both regular SD cards and micro-SD cards, with the usual adapter.
A single switch is used to indicate DivTIESUS that the EEPROM can be flashed (JP2 equivalent) and the automapping feature is disabled.
Visual feedback for SD activity (blue led) and update EEPROM mode (red led).
ESXDOS shadowing does not collide with all-RAM feature in +2A/B/3 machines. If the system is in all-RAM mode, ESXDOS ROM mapping is disabled.
Soft +3E feature: DivTIESUS is able to load +3E ROM images from the SD card, install them as the system ROM (using its own RAM), and make them available to the computer, while disabling the automapping feature (needed for ESXDOS but not for +3eDOS). This, effectively, allows the user to operate his/her +2A/B/3 machine as a +2e/3e one, all without having to open the case and exchange ROMs. A new dot command, ".go3e" makes this possible. Such command only works with DivTIESUS.
Soft ROM feature: the soft +3E feature can also be used to load any 16K, 32K or 64K ROM and make the computer to boot with that ROM (the dot command currently supports only 16K ROMs). This means that ROM images for some util/games available for the Spectrum can be run in their original form. No need to have a +2A/B/3 machine to use them.
On top of this, the "Pijus Magnificus" edition adds these features:
DB9 male joystick connector, located at the right of the interface. It is wired as Atari joystick port with support for two fire buttons (pins 6 and 9). The joystick is read as Kempston joystick.
The joystick interface supports Sega Megadrive pads (buttons B and C are available).
It also supports Kempston mouse emulation, if an Amiga or Atari ST compatible mouse is plugged in (PS/2 mouse to Amiga adapters not tested yet). Note that serial (RS232) mice are not supported, and you may damage your serial mouse and/or DivTIESUS if such device is plugged in. Kempston mouse emulation can be disabled (for games that use weird ports for reading Kempston joystick), and L/R buttons can be interchanged (for some russian software that uses the R button as primary mouse button). A dot command ".mouse" can be used to configure Kempston mouse emulation if needed.
Wifi module, software compatible with the ZX-UNO wifi module and Nihirash utilities/network clients. A new dot command, ".wconf", specially written for DivTIESUS, allows for easy configuration and wifi hotspot searching.
A nice aluminum cover for the electronics, featuring the DivTIESUS logo, the ZX Projects logo, and the "shut up and take my money" meme with Fry, but replacing the wad of bills for a few coins, symbolizing that you may want DivTIESUS badly, but won't have to spend a lot of money on it.
