MechaCon is short for Mechanics Controller. Its main function is to control the drive mechanism. However, this chip also handles security in the PlayStation 2 and implements game disc security, Magic Gate and KELF file decryption.


There are two known main variants of it.
There are two known main variants of it.


The earlier one is based on SPC 9700 and used till GH-016.
The earlier one is based on the 16-bit SPC970 CPU core, running at 33.8688 Mhz, and was used on earlier boards up to GH-022. Chip name starts with "CXP10". GH-014 and earlier motherboards including GH-016 board come with a 100-pin QFP package. GH-017 up to GH-022 motherboards including GH-015 board come with a 136-ball BGA package.


The newer one is ARM based, codenamed "Dragon".
The newer one is ARM-based (Sony SR11 core, 32-bit, ARM7TDMI, running ARM v4t little endian using both 32-bit ARM and 16-bit Thumb code), codenamed "Dragon", and used from GH-023 onwards. Chip name starts with "CXR7". Comes in a 164-ball BGA package. RAM installed is 16384 bytes/16KiB, but firmware (checked on 5.12) can use up to 13024 bytes of memory.


The chip includes an 512 word eeprom. The content is different between the two main reversions.
The "Dragon" variant also fulfills the functions that were undertaken by the separate [[SysCon]] chip on earlier boards up to GH-022, as well as the [[RTC]]+EEPROM chip, which was separate on earlier boards (or dedicated EEPROM and RTC chips on even earlier boards).


= SCP =
Both have access to a 1 KB / 512 words EEPROM. The EEPROM content is different between the SPC970-based MechaCon and Dragon.


TODO
For the SPC970 MechaCon, the EEPROM is an external chip; either a dedicated EEPROM chip on early GH-015 and earlier boards including GH-016 board, or a combined Rohm RTC+EEPROM chip on late GH-015 up to GH-022 boards except GH-016 board.


= Dragon =
Dragon has the die of the combined Rohm RTC+EEPROM chip inside its own chip package, however, the EEPROM pins are exposed on the package, and the connection between Dragon and the RTC+EEPROM is done externally on the motherboard.


== EEPROM layout ==
Every MechaCon has a 3.5 V TTL UART interface exposed on test pads that was used by service centers for example to readjust the drive and write calibration data etc. Today it can be used with tools like PMAP (currently only supports consoles with SPC970 MechaCon, support for Dragon is highly experimental) to readjust the drive mechanism after fitting a replacement laser assembly etc. For electrically connecting to the interface, see [[Test points/MechaCon UART]]. For the communication protocol, see [[MechaCon/UART_commands]].

Additionaly, at least the SPC970-based MechaCon (both, QFP and BGA revisions) provides an I²C interface with SDA and SCL being exposed on test pads next to the MechaCon.

==Firmware revisions==
Firmware comes in an OTP or mask ROM inside MechaCon.
The major version number for SPC970 MechaCon firmware is always <= 3. PS3 emulated mechacon reports itself as 3.09 version. As of 2024, the SPC970 mechacon's firmware has not yet been dumped, unlike Dragon's firmware.
 
Unlike the later Dragon-MechaCons, which retrieve region parameters from EEPROM and have identical firmware across all regions, the SPC970-MechaCons have region-dependent firmware builds, hence many different chip labels exist for each firmware.
 
Unlike the later Dragon-MechaCons, the firmware (code) can not be patched/updated via patches stored in EEPROM. Instead, the "update" mentioned in official service tool for SPC970-MechaCons refers to changing some constants stored in EEPROM.
 
The list might be incomplete. [https://github.com/ps2homebrew/PS2Ident Source]
 
The number behind the underscore denotes the region. See below for a list of region numbers.

==Firmware revisions==
Firmware comes in an OTP or mask ROM inside MechaCon, except in CXR706F080, which has a reprogrammable flash ROM. It is however possible to apply patches to it via EEPROM.
 
Dumps: https://mega.nz/folder/MNpAQDzJ#bZpyfb7aGrhGDMR_ZGA8ig
 
Some version(s) of the [[DSP]]'s firmware have a tendency to crash MechaCon by sheer bad luck or on badly readable discs (e.g. badly burned/low-quality DVD-R discs or scratched original discs), overvolting the focus/tracking coils of the laser and killing them and also the driver IC in the process. While the problematic DSP has already been used since the GH-017 board/G-chassis, its SPC970-based MechaCon seems less susceptible to fully crashing for reasons not entirely known as of 2024. This leads to the issue being mostly prevalent beginning with the GH-023 board/H-chassis and thus with the ARM-based Dragon MechaCon. Several hardware-based mitigations/"fixes" have been developed by the community to address this issue with varying degrees of success. The most well known of these fixes have been the "Romeo-mod"/"LA-fix" for SCPH-500xx/5500x consoles and "summ0ne's fix" for some SCPH-700xx consoles; however, these do not reliably prevent damage and can have side effects like reading issues and a slow tray. The most reliable fix is the Matrix PIC fix which monitors communication between DSP and MechaCon and turns off the console when a crash occurs.
 
[[PSX]] uses MechaCon v5.10 (CXR706080-702GG) (for DESR-x000 and DESR-x100) and v5.14 (CXR706080-703GG) (for DESR-x500 and DESR-x700).
 
Major version number for Dragon MechaCon firmware is always >= 5.

Latest revision as of 01:14, 3 October 2024

MechaCon is short for Mechanics Controller. Its main function is to control the drive mechanism. However, this chip also handles security in the PlayStation 2 and implements game disc security, Magic Gate and KELF file decryption.

There are two known main variants of it.

The earlier one is based on the 16-bit SPC970 CPU core, running at 33.8688 Mhz, and was used on earlier boards up to GH-022. Chip name starts with "CXP10". GH-014 and earlier motherboards including GH-016 board come with a 100-pin QFP package. GH-017 up to GH-022 motherboards including GH-015 board come with a 136-ball BGA package.

The newer one is ARM-based (Sony SR11 core, 32-bit, ARM7TDMI, running ARM v4t little endian using both 32-bit ARM and 16-bit Thumb code), codenamed "Dragon", and used from GH-023 onwards. Chip name starts with "CXR7". Comes in a 164-ball BGA package. RAM installed is 16384 bytes/16KiB, but firmware (checked on 5.12) can use up to 13024 bytes of memory.

The "Dragon" variant also fulfills the functions that were undertaken by the separate SysCon chip on earlier boards up to GH-022, as well as the RTC+EEPROM chip, which was separate on earlier boards (or dedicated EEPROM and RTC chips on even earlier boards).

Both have access to a 1 KB / 512 words EEPROM. The EEPROM content is different between the SPC970-based MechaCon and Dragon.

For the SPC970 MechaCon, the EEPROM is an external chip; either a dedicated EEPROM chip on early GH-015 and earlier boards including GH-016 board, or a combined Rohm RTC+EEPROM chip on late GH-015 up to GH-022 boards except GH-016 board.

Dragon has the die of the combined Rohm RTC+EEPROM chip inside its own chip package, however, the EEPROM pins are exposed on the package, and the connection between Dragon and the RTC+EEPROM is done externally on the motherboard.

Every MechaCon has a 3.5 V TTL UART interface exposed on test pads that was used by service centers for example to readjust the drive and write calibration data etc. Today it can be used with tools like PMAP (currently only supports consoles with SPC970 MechaCon, support for Dragon is highly experimental) to readjust the drive mechanism after fitting a replacement laser assembly etc. For electrically connecting to the interface, see Test points/MechaCon UART. For the communication protocol, see MechaCon/UART_commands.

Additionaly, at least the SPC970-based MechaCon (both, QFP and BGA revisions) provides an I²C interface with SDA and SCL being exposed on test pads next to the MechaCon.

  • CXP101064 (only used on early A-chassis/GH-001 boards)
    • KUUiF6v.jpg
  • CXP102064 (used from later A-chassis to D/D'-chassis boards)
    • Ent320h.jpg DWB8SQQ.jpg
  • CXP103049 (BGA case, used in F and G-chassis)
    • requires a working battery to function properly.

Firmware revisions[edit | edit source]

Firmware comes in an OTP or mask ROM inside MechaCon. The major version number for SPC970 MechaCon firmware is always <= 3. PS3 emulated mechacon reports itself as 3.09 version. As of 2024, the SPC970 mechacon's firmware has not yet been dumped, unlike Dragon's firmware.

Unlike the later Dragon-MechaCons, which retrieve region parameters from EEPROM and have identical firmware across all regions, the SPC970-MechaCons have region-dependent firmware builds, hence many different chip labels exist for each firmware.

Unlike the later Dragon-MechaCons, the firmware (code) can not be patched/updated via patches stored in EEPROM. Instead, the "update" mentioned in official service tool for SPC970-MechaCons refers to changing some constants stored in EEPROM.

The list might be incomplete. Source

The number behind the underscore denotes the region. See below for a list of region numbers.

There is some ambiguity about which versions of CXP102064 were used in which consoles.

PS2 ID[edit | edit source]

i.Link ID[edit | edit source]

Offset Size Description
0x1C0 0x8 i.Link ID
Console id 0x1C0 1 07 - Sony Company Code (SCE), fixed value.
0x1C1 3 Model ID. Also known as Sony Model Id. Can be calculated from Console Model ID via formula: (0x1C1-0x1C3) = (Console Model ID - 0xd200) + 0x1a0001.
The only exception is SCPH-10000/SCPH-15000, it uses fixed value: 0x1A0000.
0x1E4 4 i.Link ID. Divided into Category and i.Link number, where category is some hex value based on Console Model ID and i.Link number is decimal number based on Console Serial Number. Can be calculated from Console Serial Number and Console Model ID via difficult decimal offset tables. There exist big text tables that contains information about serial ranges and applicable decimal offsets depending on console model and serial range. Full tables still unknown and not published publicly.

Console id[edit | edit source]

Offset Size Description
0x1C8 0x8 Console ID
0x1C8 2 Console Model ID. Unique per model number, color and edition. Can be restored from the console sticker.
0xd200 - 0xd22d all known ids for pre-dragon models. Total 45 ids, currently only few of them are missing. Most likely there are no more than 45 ids (but it is still unknown). Actually, Sony used only 1 byte to represent Console Model ID, but it is easier to use 2-byte value to be in sync with Dragon models. This 1 byte value is called SCE Model Id (similar field in i.Link id area is called Sony Model Id).
0x1CA 2 0x0111 - always. Known as SDMI Company ID. Actually these 2 ids by Sony are splitted differently. Not 2+2 bytes, but 1+3 bytes. So SDMI Company ID: 01-11-D2 (fixed value) and Console Model ID - 1 byte value.
0x1CC 3 Console Serial Number (in dec). Can be restored from the console sticker.
0x1CF 1 EMCS ID. Id of plant, where the console was manufactured. Can be restored from the console sticker.
0x00 - Japan (generic plant)
0x01 - FOXC (Foxconn, China)
0x02 - SZMT (SuZhou MainTek, China)
0x03 - SKZ (SONY KISARAZU, Japan).
00 - doesnt represent any plant, when there is 00 that only means that it is made in Japan but it can be any plant actually (non Foxconn). It seems that 02 and 03 EMCS ids appeared very late (at the end of 39k production).

Hardware revisions[edit | edit source]

  • CXR706F080 (has a flash ROM for firmware; used for engineering, not used in retail consoles)
  • CXR706080 (used in H, I and J chassis SCPH-500xx/5500x consoles as well as in PSX)
    • 0BM8yj1.jpg
  • CXR716080 (used in K, L and M slim chassis SCPH-700xx, SCPH-750xx and SCPH-770xx consoles)
    • AYJx9aD.jpg
  • CXR726080 (used in N, P and R slim chassis SCPH-790xx and SCPH-900xx consoles and in the Bravia KDL-22PX300)
    • Has a smaller case than previous versions of Dragon (still has 164 balls, though)
    • Despite the smaller case, this revision still consists of 2 dies just like the earlier Dragon revisions do, with the smaller one of them being the RTC+EEPROM IC
    • VGATjwM.jpg

Firmware revisions[edit | edit source]

Firmware comes in an OTP or mask ROM inside MechaCon, except in CXR706F080, which has a reprogrammable flash ROM. It is however possible to apply patches to it via EEPROM.

Dumps: https://mega.nz/folder/MNpAQDzJ#bZpyfb7aGrhGDMR_ZGA8ig

Some version(s) of the DSP's firmware have a tendency to crash MechaCon by sheer bad luck or on badly readable discs (e.g. badly burned/low-quality DVD-R discs or scratched original discs), overvolting the focus/tracking coils of the laser and killing them and also the driver IC in the process. While the problematic DSP has already been used since the GH-017 board/G-chassis, its SPC970-based MechaCon seems less susceptible to fully crashing for reasons not entirely known as of 2024. This leads to the issue being mostly prevalent beginning with the GH-023 board/H-chassis and thus with the ARM-based Dragon MechaCon. Several hardware-based mitigations/"fixes" have been developed by the community to address this issue with varying degrees of success. The most well known of these fixes have been the "Romeo-mod"/"LA-fix" for SCPH-500xx/5500x consoles and "summ0ne's fix" for some SCPH-700xx consoles; however, these do not reliably prevent damage and can have side effects like reading issues and a slow tray. The most reliable fix is the Matrix PIC fix which monitors communication between DSP and MechaCon and turns off the console when a crash occurs.

PSX uses MechaCon v5.10 (CXR706080-702GG) (for DESR-x000 and DESR-x100) and v5.14 (CXR706080-703GG) (for DESR-x500 and DESR-x700).

Major version number for Dragon MechaCon firmware is always >= 5.

The list might be incomplete. Source
