v10 romeo mod w/ crystal?

[amptor]

Is the romeo mod for V10 still necessary when using this chip? And if so, anyone have a link to that? I think it was just changing the laser from 5V to 3.3V or something.

Thanks

amptor: yes all chips including CC1.0 need it.
if you get CC1.1 you don't ned to do that anymore.

Where is more info about the CC1.1? I heard of it but haven't seen it. I got the romeo documents, just need to print those out and keep them with that system.

Yes do it (its a voltage reduction on the coils 12v to 5v) even with a crystal 1.1

Well if the HA wire on the v1.1 does actually fix the bus crash, then why would you want to? Having more juice to the coils will help with reading data better, however if your coils are in poor condition ...... :-pray:

If your coils are bad your LA Chip will fry within minutes, hours or days. Just do it. If your coils are good mechacon crashes will degrade them, a Romeo fix is your only guaranteed protection against LA chip damage. The crystal chip 1.1 reduces the occurrence of mechacon crashes, it protects the laser not the motherboard. Think of it like a seatbelt in a car you may never need to use it but one day when things go wrong you will wish you did ;)
