Schematic 320082 (Complete, Board 320081)

From RetroTechCollection

Commodore drawing #320082, the complete three-sheet main logic schematic for PET 2001 board assembly #320081, Commodore Business Machines, Inc., Palo Alto, California. Three A-size sheets, scanned at 400 dpi.

Assembly 320081 is the static PET 2001 board fitted with 2316B ROMs and 6550 RAM.

The three sheets

[edit | edit source]
Sheet Drawing number in the title block Title Also on this wiki as
1 of 3 #320130 — not #320082 PET Computer Main Logic — "Circuitry common to all PET computers" Schematic 320130 (Sheet 1 of 3, Static PET)
2 of 3 #320082 PET Computer Main Logic — Memory Section, pertaining to board assembly #320081 Schematic 320082 (Sheet 2 of 3, Board 320081)
3 of 3 #320082 PET Computer Main Logic — Video Logic, pertaining to board assembly #320081 Schematic 320082 (Sheet 3 of 3, Board 320081)

Sheet 1 is the same drawing in all four sets. Its title block reads #320130 whichever board's PDF you open, which is why this wiki holds only one copy of it. Sheets 2 and 3 are the board-specific drawings and carry #320082.

The four static board assemblies

[edit | edit source]
Board assembly ROMs RAM Drawing number for sheets 2–3
320008 6540 6550 320026
320081 2316B 6550 320082
320132 6540 2114 320130
320137 2316B 2114 320135

Commodore's note is printed on sheets 2 and 3 of every set: "All locations are same on all boards; only the specific components will differ on boards numbered 320132, 320081, 320137, 320008. The identifying board number is in upper left corner." So a component location read off one of these drawings is valid for any static PET 2001 board; only the fitted part changes.

What these sheets contain

[edit | edit source]
  • Sheet 1 — the 6502 at UF3, both 6520 PIAs (UB8, UG8), the 6522 VIA (UA5), the three MC3446 IEEE-488 transceivers at UA7–UA9, the LM555 retrace timer, the cassette interface with its TIP29 motor drivers and 7.2 V zeners, and the keyboard matrix pull-ups. No regulator — the board takes +5 V and +9 V unregulated from elsewhere in the machine.
  • Sheet 2, Memory Section — the ROM and RAM array for this assembly specifically, which is what distinguishes the four boards.
  • Sheet 3, Video Logic — character generator, video timing and the display output.

Some circuits on sheets 2 and 3 are marked with an asterisk and annotated "all ckts marked * are for BC machine only" — the business-keyboard variant.

What these sheets do not contain

[edit | edit source]

Each sheet carries Commodore's 1970s trade-secret notice down the left edge. It is of historical interest only.
