I spent time removing TOS 1.6 ROM chips from an STE which were solder to the board directly. Now waiting on the new IC sockets to arrive and solder in. Fixed a Roland D-5 Synthersizer keyboard which I was given. Just needed a capacitor replacing to fix the sound output. Now need to find time to lear...

Welcome hlide. That's alot of retro equipment you have.

Happy New Year everyone.

What ever you did in 2018 do it better in 2019...

Whilst I do not have an UltraSatan(US) (a friend has one), the schematics show that it also has a 20 pin IDC connector and a micro USB for power. From what I have and the schematic on the US, all have the same 20 pin IDC connector. Not sure if that was an answer to my post or not. But yes, all have...

The STV8438CV chip does seem to be very hard to find with Google and non-existent on Mouser.

Cool, thank you. I will wait for these to arrive
