Now to make packages.

I have a whole bunch of packages to make: TSSOP-48, TSSOP-8, TSSOP-16 and then all of the odd ones for the power supply. I hate the fact that I will not be up clocking the device, but I just cannot find good ICs for it. I might revisit this after I get the board laid out.

dead bug/live bug

I was not careful when looking at the 68040 documentation and the pinout is from the bottom. I need to update my sockets accordingly. I flipped things but I need to get things on grid. Initial changes as revision 44.

Working toward the layout.

This project has enjoyed undocumented bursts of work over the past few months. I have 15 minute bursts between DRC/LVS on my circuits. I'm trying to assemble my final part list so I can get an order in and make sure my footprints work. Revision 43 is in SVN.
