Overview
The Gates CY-02 94V-0 9503 is a vintage computer circuit board built around the Intel i486 DX2 processor. This used board is a period piece for hobbyists, collectors, and system restorers working on legacy computer systems from the early 1990s. The i486 DX2 uses internal clock doubling technology to improve performance over standard i486 processors.
Key Features
- Intel i486 DX2 processor with clock-doubling architecture
- 94V-0 flame-retardant PCB material for safety and durability
- Original vintage design suitable for period-accurate restoration projects
- Used condition—fully functional and ready for integration
Technical Specifications
The Gates CY-02 circuit board features industry-standard early-1990s computer architecture. The i486 DX2 processor operates at typical clock speeds of 25/50 MHz or 33/66 MHz with an integrated cache. The board uses standard PGA and Socket architecture common to this generation. Exact electrical ratings and clock configurations vary by specific unit revision.
Typical Applications
- Vintage computer restoration and preservation projects
- Retro computing hobby builds and collector displays
- Legacy system maintenance and repair for decommissioned hardware
- Educational demonstrations of 1990s PC architecture
Compatibility & Replacements
Compatible With
- ISA and VESA expansion slot systems
- Standard AT-form-factor power supplies (200–250W)
- DOS and early Windows 3.x/95 operating systems
- Legacy parallel and serial peripherals
Replaces / Drop-In Replacement For
This is a used unit and is sold as-is. Verify compatibility with your specific system requirements before ordering, as motherboard compatibility depends on chassis, power supply, and expansion slot availability.
Works With
- ISA expansion cards (network, sound, storage controllers)
- Standard AT motherboard mounting schemes
- Legacy PC BIOS systems and POST diagnostics
- Period-appropriate memory modules (SIMM format)
