Extending Arduino SNES ROM-reader -- solderless reader, spc7110 support
This short article shows my following extensions on the Arduino SNES ROM-reader as described here . Construct the reader hardware without soldering Solderless reader SPC7110 support Solderless reader The key thing is to identify the names of the components that you need and get them. In fact that step takes me quite a while to sort out. The components that you need: Arduino Resistors, capacitors and shift registers as described in the schematic diagram A security screwdriver for Nintendo SNES (to open the SNES cart) Extra stuff needed for solder-less construction breadboards Wire cable connectors (male-to-male and male-to-female) 0.100" 35- or 36-pin Spacing Card Edge Connector -- note that we need to have male pin on one side of the connector, so we can plug in the male-to-female connectors to connect it to the breadboard SPC7110 support SPC7110 is a special chip that appears in a few SNES carts in 1995-1997. Carts with this chip features a 8Mb prog
