STUN long lead items

(1 / 4)


Rich has asked us to put together a list of long-lead ( > 6wks )
parts for STUN Runner. 

  Carole is working on the cabinet, controls, etc. 

  Jed -- can you mark up Rick's list of Hard Drivin's long-lead 
  or common parts with STUN? 

Please have these lists (with cost estimates) to me by Thursday. 

Ed -- Rich also reminded me that your program must use SLAPSTICK
so customers cannot convert a Hard Drivin' Multisync to a STUN
Multisync. It should be in a socket. This needs to be done
before the first game is shipped to a customer (pre-prod?). 

Thanks!!

Re: STUN RUNNER Parts that are common with Compact Hard Drivin'
Dt: 6/27/89


ADSP II
-------
We have ECNed Hard Drivin' and Compact Hard Drivin' to use ADSP II
on the next buy. Therefore, ADSP II is common to Hard Drivin', Compact
Hard Drivin', and Stun Runner. (Stun Runner will presumably make use of
the two extra ROM sockets.)


MultiSync Board
---------------
  1. Stun Runner uses a 40 MHz oscillator module at XOSC4 instead of the
     32 MHz unit that Compact Hard Drivin' uses. Oscillator modules frequently
     require several weeks' lead time.

  2. To reduce costs the Timekeeper will be replaced with another ZeroPower RAM.

  3. Slapstik 17 was reserved for Hard Drivin' but not used. I assume it is 
     available for Stun Runner.

  4. There are several parts that Compact Hard Drivin' uses that Stun Runner
     does not.

     The following are not used on Stun Runner

   	5 	137540-150    1 IC, 48T02-15, RAM            200E

   	8 	137543-001    1 IC, 68681         	     200A

  	46 	137580-001    1 IC, 4066B                    205B
  	47 	137546-003    4 IC, 4464, 64K X 4, DRAM      5K,15K,25K,35K

  	83 	136068-1135   1 IC, PROM, 82S123             195U

  	84 	137403-001    1 IC, MC1488                   210A
  	85 	137263-001    1 IC, MC1489AL                 210B

  	89 	137614-001    1 IC, AD711KN                  15B 

 	136 	144000-011    1 XTAL, 3.6864, STANDUP        XTAL1

 	138 	144008-005    1 XTAL, 50 MHZ, OSCILLATOR     XOSC3

	miscellaneous other ICs, connectors, resistors, and capacitors

									2 of 2

  5. There are a few parts that Stun Runner uses that Compact Hard Drivin'
     does not. They are:

	137526-001	1	IC, SCUM		175W

	137484-001	1	IC, AS08		175T

	137134-001	1	IC, 74LS245		175R

	144008-004	1	Oscillator, 40 MHz	XOSC4

	137412-117	1	Slapstic 17		200K

  6. Parts with changes in quantities:

   	137538-002    IC, 34010-50    		Uses One instead of Two

	179237-068    SOCKET, 68 PIN  		Uses Two instead of Three

  	137442-150    IC, 48Z02-15, RAM 	Uses Two instead of One


I need Ed to tell me that the special board I had made up for him works, so
I can give Art the schematic, so we can get an official Stun Runner parts list.

Stun Runner

(3 / 4)


Stun Runner
-----------
Last week I gave Art the inputs for Stun MultiSync, which requires marking the
schematics to show what is loaded on the board and doing the parts list.
It does not involve any PC layout changes.

We have been bumped from the schedule by a job they are doing for Tengen. I
have not been given a reschedule date.


ADSP II
-------
The parts list for the Stun Runner version of ADSP II is ready to be signed off.
This assumes you want all six graphics ROMs stuffed.

Jed,

Yep, we want (read as NEED) all 6 roms.

Thanks -- will sign it off on Monday.
