That's awesome, you are clearly quite skilled with soldering! But whats the benefit of upgrading the memory? Like, technically speaking it's great, but how do you hse the extra memory? Can you load and run more games from it etc?
Thank you! I use the memory to install a lot of GB/GBC/NES/GG/SMS/Game&Watch roms. Supported emulators: Amstrad CPC6128 beta (amstrad) Atari 7800 (a7800) ColecoVision (col) Gameboy / Gameboy Color (gb/gbc) Game & Watch / LCD Games (gw) MSX1/2/2+ (msx) Nintendo Entertainment System (nes) PC Engine / TurboGrafx-16 (pce) Sega Game Gear (gg) Sega Genesis / Megadrive (md) Sega Master System (sms) Sega SG-1000 (sg) Watara Supervision (wsv)
you can reduce the bubbling of the ic if you do a quick pass with the hot air to "melt" the flux just a little before you mount the IC on the adapter board
Thank you very much for the comment! The microscope is Andonstar AD407, it is a stand alone microscope with a big display, hdmi output and micro sd card for recording.
Hello, in the first two minutes of the video the adapter that connects the swio, gnd, swclk, etc. outputs to the interface that connects to the computer is shown. Could you tell me what that adapter is called and where to buy it? thank you so much.
Hi, the adapter cable is custom and handmade from a female 2,54mm pin header (stlink side) with cable, soldered to a female 1,27mm pin header (G&W side). 4 wires total. I do not know if there are available in the market products that you can buy...
@@PrimoAngelo Forgive, I don't explain myself well. I mean the connector that welds the GNW. The connector that has 4 EB pins of L. I would like to know the name of that connector to look for it and if you know about a link where I can buy it. Thank you very much for your help.
Hi, no space problem. As long as the height of the chip + adapter is equal to or slightly higher than the battery, no problem. In my case the height is the same. The plastic of the back even has an "indentation" in correspondence with the chip and this allows for a good margin.
Hey. We found your upgrading videos so rewarding, and were wondering if any prototype services may help? Such as custom PCBs, 3DP, CNC etc. If so, would love to supply freely and reach any YT collab together! (PCBWay luz)
@@tutubi I'm also a beginner, this is the first BGA24-to-SOP8 Adapter (and maybe the last) that I have installed. A lot of patience, a firm hand and a little experience also help with new jobs.
This was really satisfying to watch
Thank You!

What camera you use on the microscope, it is very clear? You got great skills btw 😊

I guess this one is worth it
Did you find any issue with height clearance with both the chip and the adaptor together when reassembling the console?
Hi, no space problem. As long as the height of the chip + adapter is equal to or slightly higher than the battery, no problem. In my case the height is the same. The plastic of the back even has an "indentation" in correspondence with the chip and this allows for a good margin.
@@PrimoAngelogot it, thank you!

Thanks, I'll contact you if needed.
hello wich solder iron do u use and hot hair station? great video as always
Hi, thank you for your comment! Aixun T3B soldering station and Aoyue® AO968A+ soldering station with hot air.
Great. What about the iron/hot air temperatures?
Any suggested solder?
Hi, Iron 315°C, Hot Air 420°C. Solder 63Sn/37Pb or 60Sn/40Pb is fine. A good flux makes the biggest difference.
@@PrimoAngelo Thank you, this is very useful information for us beginners

Hi, sorry but I don't do commissioned work, I only share some videos of work I have done in the little free time I have.
