• [11] Official Documentation

• [5],[10] According to iFixit.com (source):

• Datasheet for memory is for a chip in the same series, it has less memory than the one inside the 3DS (128mbits vs 512mbits).

• There is a trove of data on the FCC website at [8].

FCRAM

There is one FCRAM(Fast Cycle RAM) in the 3DS.

DESCRIPTION

The Fujitsu MB82M8080-07L chip internally contains 2 dies, where each die is branded MB81EDS516545 and MB82DBS08645. The MB81EDS516545 die is a CMOS Fast Cycle Random Access Memory (FCRAM*) with Low Power Double Data Rate (LPDDR) SDRAM Interface containing 512MBit storage accessible in a 64-bit format. MB81EDS516545 is suited for consumer application requiring high data band width with low power consumption.

WiFi dongle pinout

SDIO interface is colored red:

• CLK
• CMD
• D0, D1, D2, D3

This is the interface for the 'NEW' WiFi module (based on Atheros AR6002) first included in DSi.

The proprietary and by now ancient DS-mode WiFi is colored yellow, pins are unknown.

I2C eeprom is colored blue:

• SCL
• SDA

SPI Flash is colored purple:

• CLK
• CS#
• SI
• SO
• WP#
• NC

Auxiliary Microntroller

Monitors HOME button, WiFi switch, 3D slider, volume control slider. Controls LEDs, various power supplies.

Devices attached to I2C bus:

• UC (master?)
• Accelerometer (slave address 0x18)
• SoC (master? slave?)
