I have been trying to get my M57SLI Rev2.0 SPI running LinuxBios for a while, but could not get the chip
Sorry, no news from me yet, I hardly have time to check my email this week.
I have been offered a batch of SST25LF040A brand new unprogrammed for US $3 each. If this a good price and a way to go?
Fairly good price, depending on how many a batch is? 30-or so pieces could go for $3, but you probably want to look for 25LF080A instead then to get more room. Maybe there's a 16Mbit version too.
the chips go up to 32mbit with 50mhz to 75/85mhz and 8 pins, but i wasn't able to find them in europe until now. 64mbit are only available with 16 pins.
farnell has an sst chip with right pin position, speed (50mhz) and 16mb in its store. which cost's about 3€. farnell has also sockels for that chips in his store, but they cost much more. (about 22€).
i've an second MX25L4005 here, if someone would like to have it, i can send it. (the chip will be for free, and shipping costs maybe to, depends on how much this will be.)
