Speedon Instructions for the System 80 & TRS-80 - ChickenMan - 08-10-2022

Thanks to GeorgeK for providing a scan of this document. A4 in size and 7 pages long.  After a bit of cleanup it was converted to a searchable PDF as usual.

SPEEDON was an addon board for either the System 80 or TRS-80 Model 1 to speed it up from the standard 1.77 MHz to either 2.66 MHz, 3.54 MHz or  5.32 MHz depending on the Z80 variety you have fitted.  Higher speeds will need a Z80A or Z80B to be stable.  Instructions are for both the System 80 as well as the TRS-80 Model I.

Hand drawn schematics are also included.

So in the Vintage Repository in the System_80\Documentation\Manuals folder we placed
