INES Mapper 243

iNES Mapper 243 denotes the Sachen SA-020A circuit board. Using an eight-register ASIC with a fake "74LS374N" marking, it supports up to 128 KiB PRG-ROM, and 128 KiB of CHR-ROM. It is used for only one game, 美女拳 - Honey Peach (SA-006).

Banks

• CPU $8000-$FFFF: switchable 32 KiB PRG-ROM bank
• PPU $0000-$1FFF: switchable 8 KiB CHR-ROM bank
• Nametable mirroring: switchable H/V/Vertically-flipped L/One-screen

Errata

The SA-150 PCB, denoted by INES Mapper 150, connects the same ASIC differently, changing the meaning of the CHR-bank-related register bits.
