Hope this is helpful. But I don't know the schematic, so this is really a work-around... Read off ALL the chip numbers, the 3587 is the MP3 chip, the 'sh1' (don't know part code) is the processor, there will be some memory and a flash chip. A google for the two chip numbers (of a logical sub-part thereof) should soon tell you whether you are looking at a RAM or FLASH or (E)(E)(P)ROM :) If you plan to take the back off again in the near future, i'm sure there will be a better answer to your question from someone else :) Received on 2003-12-25 Page template was last modified "Tue Sep 7 00:00:02 2021" The Rockbox Crew -- Privacy Policy |
