KM11 Replica

Two KM11 boards in an 11/40

The original KM11 was two boards (W130 & W131) that was used in various PDP-11 computers and devices. They are used in the diagnosis of problems by being able to examine internal states that are not normally visable on the front panel.

The replica KM11 is a single board that is plugged into an extender board which is plugged into the appropriate slot(s) in a PDP-11. Full documentation is provided including schematics and parts lists.

Other people have created replica KM11 boards. One is from Tom Uban. His design (and part of this design) is based upon work by Tony Duell.
