It's targeted at the DIY builder so the schematic is pretty much straight out of the Tandy service manual with all THT parts, minus the power section (more on that later). The board size has been reduced as much as possible, and  two LED's added to indicate power to the MPI and Coco to minimize accidental unplugging when still powered up. The cart slots are numbered one to four, front to back, like a real MPI, but are \u003cstrong\u003erotated 90 degrees so the cart labels face forward\u003c\/strong\u003e. This was mainly done to better suit devices that have indicator LED's on the top of the cart.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"auto\"\u003eFor power you have a couple of different options. It is supplied with all the parts, however, on assembled ones the USB-C and MicroUSB are not installed as they are SMD. You can power directly via the included external 5V PSU to barrel jack. The USB-C, or MicroUSB ports can be soldered in locally for those to power it. Or you can use a 7.5V PSU into the barrel jack and a pair of AMS1117 5V VRM's will split the power load between slots 1\/2 and 3\/4. These are supplied but not installed on assembled versions. For +12V and -12V there are solder jumpers on the back to take that from the Coco1 cartridge port, but no options to provide those voltages on a Coco2 or 3.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"auto\"\u003eOfferings -\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"auto\"\u003eFull Kit - Everything necessary to assemble , power and run yourself.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"auto\"\u003eAssembled - This only has the 5v barrel and PSU, but includes all additional parts to use 5.5V USB-C, MicroUSB, or go to 7.5v into the barrel jack and install VRM\/Caps\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"auto\"\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"auto\"\u003e(Under the MIT License -\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003eCopyright (c) 2024 Chris Tersteeg\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePermission is hereby granted, free of charge, to any person obtaining a copy\u003cbr\u003eof this software and associated documentation files (the \"Software\"), to deal\u003cbr\u003ein the Software without restriction, including without limitation the rights\u003cbr\u003eto use, copy, modify, merge, publish, distribute, sublicense, and\/or sell\u003cbr\u003ecopies of the Software, and to permit persons to whom the Software is\u003cbr\u003efurnished to do so, subject to the following conditions:\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe above copyright notice and this permission notice shall be included in all\u003cbr\u003ecopies or substantial portions of the Software.)\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e(PCB made at an international PCB, parts bought in US and internationally, 3D done by Dustys Vintage Workshop)\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Tuc's Workbench","offers":[{"title":"Full Kit","offer_id":46931244875949,"sku":null,"price":124.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false},{"title":"Assembled","offer_id":46931244908717,"sku":null,"price":174.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0684\/3623\/0317\/files\/rn_image_picker_lib_temp_ce5e4db3-6ef0-451e-ba13-6b0897a26ba2.jpg?v=1785187647","url":"https:\/\/shop.tucs-workbench.com\/products\/trs-80-color-computer-multi-pak-lite-1-0","provider":"Tuc's Workbench","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
