Daewoo CPC-300 Schematics

From RetroTechCollection
Daewoo CPC-300 power supply schematic
Sheet 1: filter and power regulator assemblies, with Daewoo's capacitor list at the bottom

The Daewoo CPC-300 Schematics are Daewoo's own circuit diagrams for the Daewoo CPC-300 (IQ-2000) MSX2 computer: nine sheets, each with a title block reading "MSX2 CPC-300 (DOMESTIC)".[1] The MSX Resource Center describes them as the official Daewoo design, passed on by a member of the Korean MSX Paradise community who had worked for Daewoo.[2] No date or drawing number for the set as a whole is printed. The scan is about 723 pixels wide per sheet, so small print is hard to read.

What these schematics do not contain

[edit | edit source]

There is no parts list beyond the capacitor list on sheet 1, no board layout, no disassembly procedure and no adjustment procedure. Some designators in the sheet 1 capacitor list cannot be read at the scan's resolution.
