HVC-EW1ROM-01?

Post by frsj8112 »

Hi guys, I was just going to do a Just Breed out of a Sangokushi II board, but the board is a little bit unusual.
It's a HVC-EW1ROM-01 PCB and the PRG MaskROM is named "KOE-XL-1 PRG EW1".

I can't find it on bootgod, but have any of you seen it before?

Nope.

Looks like kz_s mentioned finding it in other Sangokushi 2 boards:

If you post good enough pictures, we can compare to HVC-EWROM and see what differs.

Here are some photos. I've desoldered the mask roms.

OK, so I've checked the pinout on this PRG-ROM against the MMC5 and it is the following:

HVC-EW1ROM-01

Code: Select all

PRG-ROM		MMC5
01			64	PRG A17	
02			65	PRG A18
03			62	PRG A15
04			59	CPU A12
05			52	CPU A7
06			51	CPU A6
07			50	CPU A5
08			49	CPU A4
09			48	CPU A3
10			47	CPU A2
11			46	CPU A1
12			45	CPU A0
13			36	CPU D0
14			37	CPU D1
15			38	CPU D2
16			GND


32			+5V	
31			+5V
30			66	PRG A19

Resizing and distorting your pictures and overlaying them to the reference images on NesCartDB, the only difference I see is:

On EWROM, MMC5 pin 74 = PRG /CE connects to PRG pin 31. On EW1ROM, it connects to PRG pin 22. On EW1ROM, PRG pin 31 is +5V. On EWROM, I can't tell, but it looks like PRG pin 22 is grounded.
