Home Page Forums MAME MAME TMS-09xx/1xxx thread (was New Dumps)

I have decapped and posted some pics of a GI AY-3-8800-1 that LN sent me.

I have an AY-3-8500-1 from my own Hanimex 777 pong game that I got for Christmas '76 or '77 (it was B&W and didn't have the gun). The case and PCB are gone, but I still have the IC and potentiometers. I've been meaning to decap the chip, but just haven't gotten around to it. I couldn't find any die shots with a quick Google search, so I'll do it in the next few days.

Cool, I just got an Ajax TG-621 really cheap, like USD30 or so. Problem is right now that none of the analog TV:s
I have will tune to it correctly, the auto scan just misses it. I need to buy a TV set with a tuner knob I guess
Or maybe the tuner has gone bad. As it has its own speaker I can hear the pong sounds when it is in auto serve mode so it works.

I'd be happy to hook the Ajax up once we have a working 8500, I just don't know how to get there from the die pics.

There's a little plastic stuck on it that I'll clean off with nitric acid when it gets warmer. Then I'll whink it to remove the top metal layer.

I have a much larger pic (17K x 18K pixels) for anyone who needs it.

oh WOW.
If you need some of the others, I have a few others in that series from the old hannimex carts.

(from http://www.pong-story.com/gi.htm)
AY-3-8603 (-1) 1976 Roadrace: Two car racing games
AY-3-8610 (-1) 1977 Improved version of the 8600 with 2 target shooting games

And others, these are just OTOH

I got a cheap G&W Donkey Kong Jr, should currently be on the way to sean's secret laboratory. Of the lcd handheld games I remember, this one was my favourite.

Cool!

I finally got around to dumping those 8" floppies that came with the COP400 Product Development System docs: http://www.seanriddle.com/cop400pds.html

So I'll jump back on the Sharp SM5. IgorRus gave me info on how he dumped the Soviet version, and I'm hopeful that will work on these.

This is from a long while ago, so I won't bite you if you can't remember. Is the C10745 chip from another version of Touch Me?(older?) The one you dumped was a PIC1655.

Yeah, I've got 2 Atari Touch Me games. They both look identical except for the color. Both are labeled "Model BH-100" on the back. The PIC version is yellow, while the AMI version is orange. The PIC PCB says Model BH-100 GI CO13233 Rev 2 Atari W 1979 (the W is the Warner logo) and the AMI PCB says Model BH-100 C013150 Rev 6 Atari (no W) 1979.

I added basic support for PIC1655 and PIC1650 MCU cores and started working on the PIC16 handheld driver.

added/playable so far:
- Ideal Maniac
- Lakeside Le Boom
- GAF Melody Madness
- Atari Touch Me

I'm currently working on Tiger Rocket Pinball. There are no videos on youtube of this handheld. Can someone make a recording?
*edit* same goes for Tiger Half Court Basketball/Sears Electronic Basketball.

Thanks! Since I can dump the PICs electronically I didn't decap them, but I'll have to put the games back together. I should be able to post some vids tonight.

I got the DK JR and pinned out the switch connections. I need to build a rig to figure out the LCD pinout. I'm not sure if it has an SM510 or SM511. I assume SM511 because the piezo is only connected to one pin, but I don't hear a melody while playing the game.

I also got a Radio Shack Think Fast, but it's got a glob, so I'm guessing it'll be an unknown processor like Lights Out has.

And I've got a Quiz Wiz Challenger coming.
