That mod is so tiny!

We had to keep it tiny so that it fits all variation of the pce/tg16 systems.

The key to the install of the version 3 obey region chip to the cuts the top pins really short.

So if i understand correctly, the switchless chip does not work on consoles ATM?
I have a US TG16, so i would need to install a switch as well, correct?

That is correct.  It require you ran a wire directly to the select button.  You can't do that on the home consoles.

So the obey chip version 2 is just about out.  Fear not, we are working on a newer smaller form factor version that will cut down on installation time.  The new obey chip will install and solder on the hucard slot 9 pins.  Best of all, it will work on all turbografx and pce systems including the turbo express and pce gt.  Unlike previous versions of the obey chip, the main and switchless chip will be on one board.

Did my design influence the v3?
Also did you test the TED at all? The only reason I haven't released my boards was because thesteve never figured out how to get the TED to work in the coregrafx consoles, or never told me if he did...

[thesteve]

actually we have tested with everdrive and have yet to have an issue
as far as influence this is what i was shooting for in the first place, but TurboKon wasnt comfortable with soldering such small parts
tho i could say they were both influenced by me

What version of the TED are you testing with? Maybe that's the difference...
