    Build a GameBoy Color programming cartridge with

    MBC5 chip and AM29F032B-90SD flash chip. 2008 by Reiner Ziegler


    First, buy a cartridge with ROM+MBC5+RAM+BAT. For more details about MBC5 cartridges take a
    look into http://www.reinerziegler.de/gbcmbc.txt.
    I bought a Zelda cartridge with 32K RAM. With this large RAM you can play nearly all GBC games.
    Second, buy the 29F032B-90SD flash chip from www.spoerle.com or from www.jameco.com.

    Remove the ROM chip (MX23C8005) carefully


    with a sharp cutter. 40-Pin TSOP 44-Pin SO

    After that, solder 5 cm wires on each pin,

    except pin 5, 6, 7, 8.

    Cart Pin 30 = /RESET = MBC5-/RESET
    The tape is necessary to avoid any short
    between the PCB pins and the flash chip.
    remove old chip
    MX23C8005

    add new AM29F032B-90SD


    flash memory chip

    Connect the AM29F032B-90SD pins to the corresponding pins described inside the pin table for
    ROM chips and FLASH chips.
    Try not to cross to much wires over the flash chip, there is not enough place for doing that. Try to use
    thin wires. I always use wrap wires for this kind of modifications.

    You will need 3-4 hours for building this cartridge and a very thin soldering equipment.

    Good luck
