The PsNee modchip is a newer chip that has been under development during the last couple of years, and is still under active development. PsNee modchips should work with every version of the PlayStation 1. They can be made using many AVR processors, including the Arduino Uno, Arduino Pro Mini, ATtiny85, and ATtiny45. This guide covers everything you need to know about choosing, programming, and installing a PsNee modchip into your PlayStation.

It includes general information about the chip, and then links off to installation guides for each console model.If you want more information about PlayStation 1 modchips in general.
Hi guys i recently opened my ps1 because he didnt wanted to load games anymore and found modchip loose inside the housing.model number of the chip is 12C508A 04/P HBM so please if anyone knows how to solder it back please let me know.

Can you please let me know if i am doing this right: I have an Arduino Uno and I am trying to upload via the IDE. I have used this pinout (- the capacitor): I did not flash a hex file. 1.I can compile the hex file, but I cannot flash the hex file via avrdude. I get an error saying that the signature of the device (000000) does not correspond to the the signature of the attiny45. I haven’t done the programming with the Arduino IDE (but it should be possible to do so).

I use a universal chip programmer where I can just directly flash the hex file and fuses to the chip. The device signature error usually means that there’s a problem with the connection to the chip. That could mean the wires are too long, or that one or more of them is in the wrong place. You’ll want to leave all the fuses as they are by default, except the clock/8 fuse (so it runs at full 8MHz speed). I believe that burning Read more ».
I've recently soldered an MM3 to a phat PS1 and a PSONE as well. The fat ps1 has 7 wires to solder, while the PSONE only has 6. However, the PSONE has two surface mount components that you need to solder to, so you actually have to solder the wire to the legs of this component (not a lot of room)!The original fat ps1 is all silver mount points that are super easy to solder to. I know there are install guide pictures floating around, you can take a look for yourself and see how it would be harder to solder to the surface mount stuff.The iron I used is probably almost as old as I am (31), it has two settings, 40W and 20W.
The fat PS1s have a metal bracket above the board that is soldered to the board itself (and needs to be soldered back onto the board aftwar install as well). I used the 40W settings for these blobs, then switched to the 20W setting for the board wiring itself and had no issues on either board.As far as burning software, I think everyone here will suggest using IMGBURN. I use an older Blu-ray Writer to burn my games, and its honestly about 50:50 if I get a fully working backup or not. I've found that burning at the slowest speed possible has the best compatibility, although your mileage may vary depending on your drive.
