Elf 2000 Main Board


  • DS1210 VBAT2 grounding issue

STG1861 Board




Disk/UART/RTC/NVR Board


  • There is a minor errata on the Disk/UART/RTC/NVR Board. On U7, the 16C450 UART, pin 36 /CTS is an input which is not connected to anything. As far as I can tell from the datasheet this IC does not have pullups fitted so this pin should be connected to something. On my board I have run a wire from /RTS pin 32 to /CTS pin 36.


Hexadecimal Keypad


  • In the Elf 2K manual,6th Edtion dated 10/1/2006 4:23 PM, there is an IC missing from the parts list for the Hex keypad - U5 a CD4001 (a quad 2 input NOR gate IC) needs to be added. Also U1 is a 74C922 not "74C9222" as in the parts list.
