    Hi dudes,

    I've found this chip

    I've investigated about it but not much info out there; the name is EMSIC4 and I've done the modifications according to this blog http://john2kx.blogspot.com.es/ to transformate it into a 21 pin chip for saturn model 2.
    Please, could you tell me how to connect it??

    Thank you very much in advance

    Hi buddies,


    It seems that I didn't explain it well, sorry for my bad English, my question was about the connections between the modchip and the saturn. The modifications (the modchip is modified according to the link above) are done, I'm waiting for the 74HC158.

    I've read that if the chips don't have the cristal you need to connect it to the square/rectangular cd motherboard chip, so I'll need to solder 2 cables in the modchip, one to 5v and the another one to C2 maybe??

    Thanks
