CT2

The first Falcon accelerator board at a full 50 MHz!
This card offers everything the Falcon is lacking!

	New CPU 68030 32-Bit at a permanent 50 MHz!
	SIMM 32-Bit standard socket offers 32-Bit EDO Fast-RAM (16, 32, 64 ou 128 MB) accessed 7 times faster than on original 16 MHz ST-Ram. Thanks to the 5.2.2.2 BURST accesses of the 030 (32 MB/s) at 50 MHz.
	Socket for a 32-Bit COPROCESSOR (68882-33) at 50 MHz.
	DSP of the Falcon is clocked at 50 MHz.
	BUS of the Falcon is clocked at 50 MHz (the CPU accesses at 50 MHz!).
	ATA-4 IDE management (speed rate up to 9 MBytes/s.
	On board 64 KB FLASH Eprom containing a new SETUP.
	Hardware switch allows you to come back to the 16MHz Falcon mode.
	Wonderfully designed, the CT2 fits in the original Falcon case. The card is inserted in the bus slot, and only needs 16 wires to solder.
	No wires soldered on the CT2. Ribbon cable connection between the CT2 and the motherboard allows easy updates without solders !
	No FLOPPY, SCSI and AUDIO problems (like clics or crackles !).
	TURBO mode usable on VGA, TV, RGB and MONO (SM124) monitors.

The CT2 is supplied with CENTscreen 3, CENTvidel and CENTview software.
CENTscreen 3 is both a mouse accelerator, a screen energy manager (ENERGYSTAR compliant) and an enhanced resolution manager plus a virtual mode available in 3 options: 'center', 'proportional' and 'border'. Some examples of possible enhanced resolutions: 896*672* 2/16/256 at 66 Hz, 1024*768*16/16/256 at 99 Hz Interlace,640*480*TC at 66 Hz or 800*600*TC at 90 Hz Interlace.
