What problems can I have? I have pcb model january but if the pin 20 is wrong, can I solution this problem? Is a important problem? Sorry for my english, I hope you understand my cuestion. Thanks

soniccd123 commented 3 years ago

Hey, it was my fault, I forgot to connect the pin 20 when I made some changes, but it is very easy to fix, just connect pin 20 to 5v using a small jumper wire (U5 pin 1 is a good candidate). It is already fixed since last commit, but for those who had built PCBs before, this should fix it. The cart will probably not work if this is not done.

When you build your PCB, just confirm to me that it works so I can close the Issue :)

I have built PCB before, I am going apply the solution that you have to proposed to me. anyway, I am studying how to make the cartridges because I am a beginner. I have the list of components and the pcb, but I need to know which ones to use and how, I know that I need to program 27c322 and pic12f629, but I don't know which components to solder. Thanks for your solution. I will write my progress if you want, thanks again

Pixotero commented 2 years ago

I have abandoned the project for months because I have not been able to program 27c322 with the willem programmer. I would like to resume it, I don't know if you could help me with that, thanks

soniccd123 commented 2 years ago

Hi friend, unfortunately, I program my EPROMs with a custom programmer that I built, but any programmer capable of writting 27c322 should work. I don't know how can I help you with that

I built a pcb the cart is working without any modification. So i think you can close the issue

I would like to know if in the end the project and the board works correctly. Has anyone finally tested the prototype and programmed any game?

It worked for me, but you have to swap the bytes before flashing (Odd <==> Even)
