wrench Known issues
  • Leaky Ni-Cd clock battery

The Ni-Cd battery may be leaking, risking damage to PCB layers & nearby components. Promptly remove the battery & clean corrosion/alkaline salts from the board. Use white vinegar to dissolve salts, but exercise caution as vinegar can corrode exposed metals. A thorough examination & repair may be needed. Replace battery with guide: https://github.com/wiretap-retro/Not-A-Varta

notes Notes
  • Similar but slightly different than the PC Chips M205, PCMATE TD60, and Hedaka HED-986 motherboards.
  • Examine area between the TD60 chip and the edge of the board.
  • This board has 2 unlabled resistors in that location.
