- HI All,
-
- I noticed upon opening up my VS3100/30 that the *only* changes between
- it and the 'faster' VS3100/40 are the clock (66.6666 MHz vs 44.4444 MHz) and
- a jumper. This is down to the chip part number.
-
- The cost of the 66 MHz osc is about $10 so when I find one I'll give it
- a try.
-
- My questions are:
-
- Who has done this?
-
- What is the max clock freq that could be used?
-
- Do you need additional cooling above 66 MHz?
-
- What componet typicaly fails first as you raise the clock?
