INES Mapper 016

iNES Mapper 016 is used for some of the Bandai FCG boards, namely, boards with the FCG-1 ASIC that supports no EEPROM, and the LZ93D50 ASIC with no or 256 bytes of EEPROM.

INES Mapper 016 submapper table
Submapper #	Meaning	Note
0	Unspecified	Emulate both FCG-1/2 and LZ93D50 chips in their respective CPU address ranges.
1	LZ93D50 with 128 byte serial EEPROM (24C01)	Deprecated, use INES Mapper 159 instead.
2	Datach Joint ROM System	Deprecated, use INES Mapper 157 instead.
3	8 KiB of WRAM instead of serial EEPROM	Deprecated, use INES Mapper 153 instead.
4	FCG-1/2	Responds only in the CPU $6000-$7FFF address range; IRQ counter is not latched.
5	LZ93D50 with no or 256-byte serial EEPROM (24C02)	Responds only in the CPU $8000-$FFFF address range; IRQ counter is latched.

• Writing to this register acknowledges a pending IRQ.
• On the LZ93D50 (Submapper 5), writing to this register also copies the latch to the actual counter.
• If a write to this register enables counting while the counter is holding a value of zero, an IRQ is generated immediately.

++++-++++--++++-++++-- Counter value (little-endian)

• If counting is enabled, the counter decreases on every M2 cycle. When it holds a value of zero, an IRQ is generated.
• On the FCG-1/2 (Submapper 4), writing to these two registers directly modifies the counter itself; all such games therefore disable counting before changing the counter value.
• On the LZ93D50 (Submapper 5), these registers instead modify a latch that will only be copied to the actual counter when register $800A is written to.

• This register only exists on the LZ93D50 (Submapper 5), and only has an effect if a 24C02 EEPROM is present.
• Please refer to generic I²C tutorials and the 24C02 datasheet on how to operate or emulate this register correctly.

Similar Mappers

• INES Mapper 153 replaces the serial EEPROM with 8 KiB of battery-backed WRAM, and uses CHR-RAM instead of CHR-ROM.
• INES Mapper 157 adds a barcode reader, support for a second EEPROM, and uses CHR-RAM instead of CHR-ROM.
• INES Mapper 159 replaces the 256 byte with an 128 byte serial EEPROM.
