"Building a 32K RAM Board for the PDP-8/e" article published on Tronola.com

Mal,

The initial problems with Vince's board was in the bus interface ICs. The initial choice of 74ABT540 caused too much ringing on the Omnibus, and a 74LS540 replacement worked much better.It would be interesting to see if your CPLD is driving the Omnibus as hard as the 74ABT540 was and is causing ringing.
