Just got my carts. They work well! big_smile They're exactly as described. I kinda realized that some of the roms I chose might not be as useful as I originally thought, but it's still fun to have and play around with simple tools smile

Cheers!

Lucky for you, they are reflashable. Granted you have a way to do so.

Hahaha, future people problems.

The green outer edge likely comes from the unused portion of the LCD. That outline, although having no  use able pixels is still inverted. The ic is a simple hex inverter, often using an xor chip. These can be found anywhere from eBay, mouser, digikey or even your local radio shack.

It is necessary. Try a four terminal 3.5mm connector.

Im all about the treble. Getting a good balance between bass and treble is the tough part.

This is NOT what I was expecting! The predictable thing would have been to use bit 3/7 of FF24 to create a square wave and the timer to generate frequencies. Instead, you are using using channel 2 to generate a DC offset and abusing its volume control to generate two interleaved PCM channels, as far as I could gather from a quick look at the code at least. Not necessarily what I would call a 5th channel, but really innovative!

As far as emulation is concerned, Gambatte does a good job of emulating it, if sound resampler is set to high quality (polyphase FIR) or higher, which it should be by default I believe.

DC offset how? PWM manipulation?

Why did the VU meter stop responding?

Yes, I'm quite aware. In this case it wasn't. This fab house takes some ambitious liberties at times, but thankfully they usually claim responsibility.

Hmph. Good to hear they made up for it.

in reality, the reason i have this stencil is because the factory mistakenly cut out the edge connector.

I think they base it on your cream layer, which is on all SMT pads by default.
