Those ROMs use "drain contact programming", for every data bit there is a N-fet transistor with Source connected to Vss, Gate connected to the wordline, but the drain may (logic 0) or may not (logic 1) be connected to the bitline. When the 3 metal layers are removed (for example by etching), the connecting pads can be clearly seed and read. When the gold is present line is tied to ground and read as 0, when is missing (green spot), then line is read as 1. There are also 1:8 decoders, so to get valid data you need skip each 8 joints. ===== Identified fucntions in I-ROM ===== ^ addr ^ arguments ^ result ^ description ^ | 0x20f9 | I2 = addr, D0 = 1 | B1 | read EEPROM (1B from 'addr' to B1) | | 0x21d6 | I7 - addr?, D1 - uint16_t data | D1 ??? | store instruction memmory? | | 0x21d9 | I7++ | D1 | load instruction memmory, (addr 0x2000 - 0x5FFF) | | 0x22ac | I7, A0 ??? | ??? | used by stage 2 bootloader in latter stage of boot | | 0x22af | I7, A0 ??? | ??? | used by stage 2 bootloader in latter stage of boot | ==== Delayered ROM from chip ===== TODO: read bits and decode instruction from the ROM {{ :project:weathersonde:rom_i_13_fused.png?800 |delayered ROM with visible programing interconnections }} {{:project:weathersonde:rom_m1.jpg?600|}} ===== pictures ===== {{:project:weathersonde:dspic1_decap_lowres.jpg?200|Deccaped chip - low resolution.
