Hi im going to produce a small batch of g1 hdd connectors got my samples for the gd connector today from molex and now im starting to search for these active crystals only found this http://www.ebay.de/itm/200x-33-8688-MHz-Quartz-Crystal-Resonator-Oscillator-/201497694828 ist this a good deal? im from germany so i think the shipping is extremly high anyone got another source?
It need to be an active Xtal (four pins), like this: http://www.aliexpress.com/wholesale...=oscillator+33.8688+mhz&productId=32713387118
One thing to watch out for is that a lot of those old DIP 4-pin oscillators are 5V and most Dreamcasts (I.E. everything except VA0) are 3.3V Some of the 5V oscillators work fine at 3.3V - others will simply refuse to even start up
