Overview

«The XT-IDE project is a Vintage Computer forum driven project to develop and manufacturer an 8-bit ISA IDE controller. It allows any PC/XT class machine to use modern IDE hard drives or Compact Flash devices for long term storage.» (From the XTIDE project wiki)

Our version of the XTIDE controller replaces the 7400-series logic chips with a CPLD, a chip that can be programmed to replace dozens of individual logic chips. The logic is designed in software by drawing a schematic, and then uploaded to the CPLD. New logic circuits can be designed and tested without making new hardware each time.

V2 has been built and tested, it works! Thanks Pietja!

We have free PCBs available if you’d like to build your own!
