Motorola 68000 Series IC's

Motorola 68000 Series IC's

2003-03-08 by springpan

Hello tekkies,
Does anyone know of a source for old obsolete Motorola 68K chips? In 
particular, I am looking for the MC68000P10 CPU chip and an 
MC68440P10 dual DMA chip. These are both used in the Ensoniq EPS 
classic that I'm trying to fix. The CPU might be okay, but the DMA 
chip gets pretty hot (will burn finger) while operating. Does anyone 
out there know if these are supposed to radiate this much heat? Any 
help would be GREATLY appreciated, as there is little to no 
information on the web about servicing this keyboard. Thanks, all.

Try this: www.dialelec.com it's located in UK they have lots of 
obsolete parts and for sure the Motorola MC68 series.
