Hello Andrew,

There is a program called FIFOPIPE. It's developed by William Sowerbutts.
I never used it (but want too, when I get my Z80 up-and-running).

Don't know if it works standalone of in conjunction with his USB FIFO board.

Best regards,

Hi

Has anyone used this USB FIFO board? What was the transfer speed given all the other constraints of the system such as software, hardware, etc.? The wiki says it is an 8 bit clean path and ignores UART settings. Does anyone know what are the actual transfer speeds? I presume it is much faster than 9600 bps.

I am wondering if this board or something similar to it should be ported to the Z80 MBC system and if it would be better than existing solutions.

Thanks, Andrew Lynch
