# macse30mlb
|
|
|
|
`macse30mlb` is primarily a modern redrawing of the Macintosh SE/30
|
|
Main Logic Board schematic drawings, drawn in KiCad. The resulting
|
|
schematics are much more legible and easier to work with than the
|
|
original scans.
|
|
|
|
Want to check out what the original schematics look like? Take a look
|
|
at this site for copies of Apple's original schematics.

|
For convenience, a script to download the files into your local
|
|
working repo space is also included in this repository.

## Future Ideas
|
|
|
|
What else can be done with this KiCad project?
|
|
|
|
* Construct a Bill of Materials (BOM) for capacitor replacement
|
|
(recap) projects. Or, alternatively, use this project as a means
|
|
to organize the countless recap SE/30 BOMs already out there!
|
|
|
|
* Construct a custom silicon salvaging diagram and Bill of Materials.
|
|
A useful reference to determine the most important parts to save
|
|
from dead logic boards. Likewise could be done for discontinued
|
|
parts.
|
|
|
|
* Create a modern Printed Circuit Board (PCB) layout. Modern PCB
|
|
manufacturing services can then be used to order replacement PCBs.
|
|
|
|
* Create a 3D model of a Macintosh SE/30, with accurate internal
|
|
geometry. Suitable for 3D rendering, and maybe even 3D printing of
|
|
a Macintosh SE/30 placebo. This can be especially interesting for
|
|
3D renders with a translucent/transparent case.
