AES cartridge: Difference between revisions

Latest revision as of 08:15, 10 January 2017

Home console cartridge, with pretty label and no vents.

Contains a NEO-ZMC2 or PRO-CT0 chip, contrary to MVS cartridges. This is the reason why MVS to AES convertors can't be passive devices.

The cartridge connector has 2 * 2 * 50 = 200 pins. See AES cartridge pinout.
