Omega-TI Posted January 3, 2020 Share Posted January 3, 2020 The rules are simple: 1) The winner gets to pick the next photo. 2) The first one to guess correctly wins that round. I'll start the ball rolling with this... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

+Ksarul Posted January 3, 2020 Share Posted January 3, 2020 One note on that one, the PPI on the board, with Irving, TX under it would have been the most obvious clue. . .I do have to laugh at the fact that they had to redrill the central hole in the cartridge board though. They must not have had their calipers set right when they laid the board out. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+FarmerPotato Posted January 3, 2020 Share Posted January 3, 2020 Must guess what it's from and its function! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stuart Posted January 3, 2020 Share Posted January 3, 2020 Well that would be the console keyboard connector. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stuart Posted January 3, 2020 Share Posted January 3, 2020 (edited) OK, lets step it up a bit - where would you find this? You're more likely to see it this way round: Hint: it's an item manufactured by TI. Edited January 3, 2020 by Stuart Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stuart Posted January 4, 2020 Share Posted January 4, 2020 Correct! 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AwkwardPotato Posted January 4, 2020 Share Posted January 4, 2020 Okay, what is this a picture of? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stuart Posted January 4, 2020 Share Posted January 4, 2020 (edited) The PEB cable 'foot' that plugs into the console? (With some questionable soldering quality bottom right ...) Edited January 4, 2020 by Stuart 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AwkwardPotato Posted January 4, 2020 Share Posted January 4, 2020 Correct, and good call on the soldering quality. That was a quick fix a couple years back when I was touching up the PCB (rubber piece underneath it started rotting), should probably hit a lot of those joints again with some flux.

+mizapf Posted January 5, 2020 Share Posted January 5, 2020 Not my turn, I know, but what about this one: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JB Posted January 5, 2020 Share Posted January 5, 2020 It is a circuit board and some chips! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AwkwardPotato Posted January 5, 2020 Share Posted January 5, 2020 The TI 32K card? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+mizapf Posted January 5, 2020 Share Posted January 5, 2020 Correct! How did you know? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+Ksarul Posted January 5, 2020 Share Posted January 5, 2020 I recognized the capacitors--TI used them everywhere on their memory boards--and the 32K was the most likely one, based on the part number of the visible memory chip. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I couldn't think of any other TI hardware with 4116s on it (besides the motherboard, but it doesn't look like what's in the picture). Also the black silkscreen on green soldermask, the only place I can remember seeing that is on the PEB cards. I'll let somebody else go after me since I posted a picture only a couple days ago Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
