With this info we have made a schematic of the cart, and the PCB design of the cart with a flash chip, MBC5, 32Kbit RAM and up to 32Mbit ROM. text/html 2008-08-19T08:32:23+02:00 http://wiki.ladecadence.net/doku.php?id=en:cartucho_flash&rev=1219127543 Our goal is to make a MBC5 cart with 32Mbit ROM and 32Kbit RAM + Batt, that is compatible with almost all GB/GBC commercial games. MBC5 is backwards compatible with MBC1 and MBC2, so all software based in this two mappers will work aswell. The first one I built, in order to test the programmer, was a MBC1 cart with 4Mbit ROM + 8K SRAM + Batt.

It is a little C program, that shows the information about a Gameboy/GameboyColor ROM (it can be zip/gzip compressed), and a shell script that when launched in a directory full of ROMs, creates a text file (listado.txt) with the information of all roms it finds (.gb/.gbc/.zip/.gz). The results of the C program are CSV, so the listings are easily imported in a spreadshe… text/html 2008-08-27T10:08:37+02:00 http://wiki.ladecadence.net/doku.php?id=en:programador&rev=1219824517 The programmer we're working on, is based on the GBCartFlasher, that was created by Kraku and Chroost. We're modified the desing to adapt it to the new FTDI chip, FT232RL, that need less external components and is easier to find. We also recreated the schematics and pcb using Eagle, and created a component library, like cartridge connector and so on. text/html 2008-08-19T08:32:23+02:00 http://wiki.ladecadence.net/doku.php?id=en:software_de_programacion&rev=1219127543 The software for using the GBCartFlasher is opensource and is at this sourceforge page: <http://sourceforge.net/projects/gbcf/> The software is ported to Windows and Linux, and is programmed using the QT libs, and libftdi to talk to the FTDI chip, so it's easily portable to other platforms. We have a preliminary build for MacOSX 10.4/10.5 on Intel. text/html 2010-04-20T02:17:56+02:00 http://wiki.ladecadence.net/doku.php?id=en:taller_de_electronica_en_el_cairo&rev=1271722676 Electronics and Arduino workshop held at Medrar's OpenLab, in collaboration with Hangar.
