Sandisk Flash

Francilloscope

Markings:

• S61614624
• SDTNKHHSM-32768
• 137133
• TAIWAN

DanielStenberg - this first is probably a 4GB flash and the one below a 2GB one, since these pics are from a 6GB player and my 4GB has two 16384 marked chips. The 32768 vs 16384 also indicates this first being twice as big. The number matches number of megabits.

SD <-> NAND Controller

AnyThingButIPod	Francilloscope

Markings:

• SANDISK
• 20-99-00090-3
• e250: S604-572545 (e270: C608-572815)

This document chapter 4.1 explains how a Flash IDE chip is connected to a SanDisk SDC-1 controller, but it doesn't really tell much about the SDC-1...

TI SN74LVC244A

Francilloscope

Markings:

• LC244A
• 63K G4
• H3EN

SN74LVC244A is a guess because page references to it from LC244A: http://www.digchip.com/datasheets/parts/datasheet/477/SN74LVC244A.php

LCD Controller?

Francilloscope

Markings:

• 9000-0118-02F 41606
• IDW BEIJING API

http://www.idwk.com/Product/Default.asp

DanielStenberg - IDW has released press releases early 2006 about their deal with SanDisk and also confirming that they would ship color LCDs to SanDisk...

MichaelSevakis - The LCD driver IC is a Renesas chip extremely similar to the HD66789R.

FM Chip

Francilloscope

Markings:

• V24020
• 6BK4

LV24020LP is a guess. This is a Sanyo FM tuner IC

CharlesPhilipChan - Some European versions do have support for FM radio as many people have enabled it by installing the American firmware (http://www.anythingbutipod.com/forum/showthread.php?t=16204). However,

KrisNakashima - as noted by EnzoTen http://www.anythingbutipod.com/forum/showpost.php?p=3909&postcount=67 this chip is missing from some European versions that don't have support for FM radio, AND even when successfully updated with the American firmware, multiple users have confirmed that it will just display a FM menu, but no sound. (see http://www.anythingbutipod.com/forum/showthread.php?t=167 ). This all seems to confirm that this is the FM chip.
