Hello all,

Anybody knows what the two marked possibly 0201 20k precision resistors really are?

Sadly these two (refer to the photo) got knocked off because a physical mistake (the metal shield had to be wiggled to remove because of a broken screw, and lifting these to up in the end), and one of them got lost. You can see the identical smds below the marked region, a few more doublets. The one I have off board measured to be a precision 20k resistor but I cannot make 100 % whether the lost one is also the same. I cannot risk de-soldering the below ones either. Since there is no schematic, I thought of going with my gut, ordering 20k precision 0201 resistors, simply soldering back in, and repeat oh measurements on the spot for both resistors and compare them with the ones below... My idea is that these are identical resistors, possibly dividing the supply voltage to two, to be used as a reference voltage e.g. for a DAC or sth.

Does that sound logical to you? Any suggestions are welcome, thanks a lot.

Zoom into the similar ones just below in your picture.... Jets see those from close. Pretty sure they are the same.

I have desoldered another doublet from there, apparently one of them is the same and 20k. But the other one is 47k. Now I know what I need for the missing part. By the way apparently these are 0402, not 0201. Thanks.

    and the morning cuz school

    is labor day different in venezuela than in america, or did time skip that far?

    It must be the 1st already

    1st of what?

    may?

    Oh yeah it's in September
  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    @BakerMan, yea i think its different
  • BakerMan @ BakerMan:
    ok, because here it's in september, right before the fuckin school year starts

    good night

    as to you

    because i didn't say i was asleep

    i said i was sleeping...

    sleeping with uremum

  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    yall im torn... ive been hacking away at tales of phantasia GBA (the USA version) and have so many documents of reverse engineering i've done
  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    I just found out that the EU version is better in literally every way, better sound quality, better lighting, and there's even a patch someone made to make the text look nicer
  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    Do I restart now using what i've learned on the EU version since it's a better overall experience? or do I continue with the US version since that is what ive been using, and if someone decides to play my hack, it would most likely be that version?
  • Sicklyboy @ Sicklyboy:
    @TwoSpikedHands, I'll preface this with the fact that I know nothing about the game, but, I think it depends on what your goals are. Are you trying to make a definitive version of the game? You may want to refocus your efforts on the EU version then. Or, are you trying to make a better US version? In which case, the only way to make a better US version is to keep on plugging away at that one ;)
  • Sicklyboy @ Sicklyboy:
    I'm not familiar with the technicalities of the differences between the two versions, but I'm wondering if at least some of those differences are things that you could port over to the US version in your patch without having to include copyrighted assets from the EU version
