Re: a190 problems

2007-10-12 by Tim Stinchcombe

Hi Sam,

Check that all the socketted ICs are well seated, especially the 
small 8-pin DIL at the top edge of the board, marked '24C16' - that 
is an EEPROM chip and very likely is where such information is stored 
when the power is off. (The square chip below it, 44 pins, is the 
processor, and left of that, another DIL, with 28 pins, is the ROM 
chip holding the software. The only other socketted chip on mine is a 
MAX531, a digital-to-analog converter, so it is unlikely to be that 
causing the problem.)

If that doesn't fix it, then you're going to need some proper help I 
suspect!

Tim
