Commodore 64c rev.A and rev.B (new design). The 64c boards have the
following texts: PCB ASSY NO. 250469 and PCB NO. 252311 REV.A (or B on
newer boards). The difference between the two revisions is in the Gate
Array chip: The one in rev.B includes COLOR RAM. That is why only the
right half of the schematic diagram differs. The REV.A schematics
also has the part number 252312.

cost-reduced version, with 64kbÃ4 memory chips but small ROMs.
These are for PCB Assembly Number 250466 Rev B-3

Commodore MAX Machine schematic diagram (also known as "VICKIE", VIC-10
and VC-10). The original was very noisy; the contrast was improved after
scanning. In the scanning process, the top left and bottom right corners
were omitted by mistake. The bottom right corner has been augmented.

Commodore 64 schematic diagram, scanned with 360 DPI, 2 colours. This seems
to be the same (buggy) schematic that was published in the Commodore 64
Programmer's Reference Guide, but has been partially translated into German.
The vic part contains the ROMs, SIDs, Video Controller, RAMs, Address-
decoding, Expansion Port and User Port. The cpu part contains the Port
elements (CIA), CPU, AC-Adaptor, Timer, Port Layout. All resistors are
0.25W ±5% and all capacitors are in µF, unless otherwise stated. These are
for PCB 326298-01 Rev A motherboards.

SAMS C64 Troubleshooting Guide.

c64-powersupply.gif 2009-08-18 31193
A block diagram of the Commodore 64 internal power supply (how the
+12V, +9V and TOD clock signals are generated from the 9V AC input).
Taken from the SAMS C64 Troubleshooting Guide.

unknown, or maybe 251138. Taken from the SAMS C64 Troubleshooting Guide.

c64extps.gif 2009-08-18 39589
Commodore 64 Power Supply, part no. 902503-02, input 116V 60Hz 40W.
This is the North American power supply that can be taken apart.
The schematic was drawn by William Levak. According to him, the
transistor and the 300 ohm resistor can be removed and replaced with a
standard +5V 750mA voltage regulator, which is much more reliable.
