SneakyKreiger Posted October 5, 2018 Report Share Posted October 5, 2018 Anyone here have a Aladdin XT Plus 2 or Advance modchip? (Official one, not clone without traces,there's a difference) , i've got a official chip here and its got the traces to the pinouts but there's no Trimmer potentiometer , so i'm going to add one, but i don't know the resistance increment 5k-20k? I mean would it matter or what. My reason for doing such is i'm going to solder this trim pot to a chip without one. So i can get a contrast adjustment to my LCD.

KaosEngineer Posted October 5, 2018 Report Share Posted October 5, 2018 (edited) It won't do any good as that modchip doesn't support an LCD. The CPLD, a Lattice LC4032V, doesn't have enough macrocells to implement LCD support. Thus, the reason clones left off traces to the pads for an LCD and had no pot installed.

You have to have a properly programmed LC4064V. From Lattice, the chips are not programmed. The code to program an LCD supporting Aladdin modchip has not been released.
