This is a simple tester to check out 68000 in DIP64 package. The original goal of this 68000 tester is a simple, inexpensive board to test 68000 and 68010 in DIP64 packages. The tester is so simple, there are rooms available to add additional features for a more general purpose 68000 SBC. The final design resulted in a PC board with multiple configurations including a general purpose 68000 SBC. The design is described in details in two on-line forums:
