Tweety Board is a solderless upgrade that enables an Atari ST to produce stereo sound.

It consists of a small board with a pin adaptor that fits over the Yamaha sound chip, and an external hardware adaptor to connect a stereo or amplifier.

The hardware adaptor with three RCA phono jacks connects to the RS-232 port on the ST. Tweety Board can be connected to either two speakers for conventional stereo sound, or three for full surround-sound capability. The adaptor also includes a pass-through that lets you connect other RS-232 devices to the Atari ST.

Practical Solutions debuted Tweety Board at an Atari Fest in Glendale, California.

Date : February 1989
