APPENDIX C. VENDOR
INFORMATION
This section contains addresses and phone
numbers of vendors for the
various hardware products listed in this
documentation.
C.1 CommPort, BBGRam, RAMDrive, BBRTC, AddressFixer
The CommPort cartridge contains a 6551
UART chip and a standard
RS232 serial port, enabling speeds up
to 38,400 bps.
The BBGRam cartridge is a memory expansion
device available in
sizes of 512K, 1 MB, or 2 MB of RAM.
The RAMDrive is an intelligent, transparent
memory expansion
device. It is available in sizes up to
8 MB.
The BBRTC is a small, battery-backed real-time
clock chip that plugs
into either joystick port.
The AddressFixer is a simple in-line device
that remaps the I/O
address of a cartridge to a different
location, and restricts the I/O
register space of a device to 16 bytes
(rather than allowing the device
to mirror its registers over 256 bytes,
as most devices do). The right
combination of AddressFixers can make
otherwise incompatible
cartridge port devices work together by
eliminating address conflicts.
It resides in-line between a cartridge
and a cartridge port.
The above hardware is sold by Performance Peripherals, Inc.

and enables speeds
up to 115,000 bps (approx.)

device that uses
SIMM chips. It is expandable up to 16
MB.
