Friendlyarm Nanopi Neo2 Starter system.

This is a nice enclosed metal case quad core Allwinner H5 processor.

This is a photo of the unit in visible light, then photos of the unit from various angles in IR with a Flir Pro camera.

Volo 2 small PC (damaged)


This is the result of a lithium battery failure in progress.  I'm afraid to open the bags, and am not sure how to dispose of the things.  I fear if they are put into the recycle trail unwatched they will just be a source of detonation.

I trimmed off the leads nearst the batteries as possible, and there is still a small sensor board soldered to the battery terminals I need to figure out how to get off.

Battery has forced the enclosure open.  top is actually thin glass

Top removed showing battery

Circuit board is forced up.  System still works.

More direct view of the bow forced into the circuit

The battery is like two balloons blown up.

This is the nomenclature on the battery

Olivetti Programma 101 coding form sheet


Rotated to portrait


Olivetti Programma 101 spares set


Spare boards for the Olivetti Programma 101.

Some of these are physically challenged.    It looks feasible to fab up duplicates for the damaged units, but tedious.  These are all similar to Gemini spacecraft, but with one end of the modules embedded into the actual board, and the upper interconnect on small boards.

Gemini boards I've seen contain similar technology, but the modules are free standing and are connected into the interconnect base backplane, so theoretically one could move them around.

These seem to be the relevent part numbers.

board 7 is heavily damaged, but the base board appears intact.

Board 3 took a hit, may have broken some diodes, may need disassembly and repair.

Board 1 has some issues on the right end (as photographed)

PDP 11/73 (x2)

Acquired two of these, which seem compete.

Pulls from some time ago badged for system which they were embedded in.

They appear to contain a DMA channel of some sort, but otherwise have hard disk and floppies.
