About the EMRAM32

The EMRAM32 is a simple, no frills memory expansion cartridge for Acorn BBC Master and Electron (with Plus1) computers. It adds 2 x 16K banks of sideways RAM, for an additional 32K in total. It plugs easily into a cartridge slot, with no other installation necessary. Two EMRAM32s can be used together to enable 64K of sideways RAM. It's is also fully compatible with the ElkSD Plus 1 and MasterSD cartridges.

To reduce power consumption and increase reliablity the EMRAM32 is built using modern low-power logic.

Please note, the EMRAM32 is NOT compatible with the BBC Master Compact. Also, if you use an EMRAM32 cartridge on an Acorn Electron with a Plus 1 the bootup screen will continue to display 'Acorn Electron 32K' as the operating system ROM does not actually count installed memory.
