Hi there.

I've developed an ISA board to test some transputer boards (TRAM) I bought in
eBay,
I started with a prototype wired board on an ISA development card, and then I
made
a proper PCB in three iterations as I solved some bugs.

The ISA connector was just because I have several old PC motherboards (80286,
80486, a Pentium MMX, and a AMD K5)

The history of development is available at
https://nanochess.org/transputer_board.html

The schematics and PCB are available at
https://github.com/nanochess/transputer/pcb

In the same git you can get my operating system developed in 1993-1996.

Enjoy it!

Regards,
