The Motherboard with extension cards


On the main Atom board is the 16K memory extension card situated with an rechargeable battery to keep the data on the CMOS chips when power is down. A small printed circuit board with some wires (8K CMOS) replaces the 'high' VDU memory. Another tiny card on the left switches the video by means of a relays from the 80 column card the to the standard Atom graphical modes. That's why the video cable goes to the Atom.
