General Description

The original A-Max II software allowed to emulate a Macintosh computer on the Amiga and provided an interface (Figure 1) to connect an external Apple floppy drive and use it in emulation. It is also compatible with CrossMAC on the Amiga so you can read Mac floppies on the Amiga.

Amiga2MacFloppy (Figure 2) is a recreation of that board without the Mac ROMS that were on the original board, it works all the same with a patch version of A-Max II so that it loads the ROMs from file instead.

It is design to receive the IDC connector directly from a Mac floppy or FloppyEmu. You also have the option to the DB19M to IDC adapter (Figure 3) to connect an external Mac floppy drive.

The documentation is not fully finished, but it testing and board design is done.
