82atari5200 Posted July 30, 2004 Share Posted July 30, 2004 Just curious about what modifications are needed to read a rom in a programmer or how is a cartridge reader made? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nukey Shay Posted July 30, 2004 Share Posted July 30, 2004 Look up Google on "cartridge reader"+schematics BTW why dump roms? Virtually everything has already been dumped. What are you looking for? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+Mitch Posted July 30, 2004 Share Posted July 30, 2004 Step One - Buy an EPROM burner. Step Two - Open 5200 cart and remove ROM/EPROM(s). Step Three - Put ROM/EPROM in EPROM burner and transfer to PC. Mitch Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mitch That doesn't work on 85% of all carts, the 8K ROM's have less pins than a 27C64. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bryan Posted July 30, 2004 Share Posted July 30, 2004 Of course, no one has mentioned that most 5200 ROMs are here on AA. -Bry Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
82atari5200 Posted July 30, 2004 Author Share Posted July 30, 2004 Just out of curiosity really. I just like to know how things work the way they do. Plus I have a couple of proto boards that I'd like to back-up in case they get bit rot. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If they're proto's, then they probably have EPROMs you can read with an EPROM burner. -Bry Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Susuwatari Posted July 31, 2004 Share Posted July 31, 2004 You could always sent them to someone who has an EPROM burner to read them. Or you can buy yourself an EPROM burner, they usually go for $50 and up on eBay. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sku_u Posted July 31, 2004 Share Posted July 31, 2004 If you want to learn how it works, pick up this and play around a bit: http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewI...3830378285&rd=1 :wink: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
