So, wondering what to do, I take my = JE320, take it apart, remove it’s disc assembly unit, plug it up to the = 510 (because the 510 and the 320 were SUPPOSED to be the same unit) and it = wouldn’t work. So, upon further examination, I noticed my 510’s <span class=3DSpellE>mainboard</span> was marked “MDS-JE500” and = my 320 was marked “MDS-JE510”. Ok, so I’m dealing with, in = reality, are two totally different units. So, I looked at the boards on the bottom of = the disc assembly. Not only are the main ATRAC chips different, the 320 had = an additional chip next to the main chip. I expected the main <span = class=3DSpellE>cpu</span> difference because the 320 has a nice 5 second time record buffer, = whereas the 510 has 2 (I was hoping I’d get 5 like my 320) But, I don’t = think that would make that much difference. So, anyway, I swapped boards off = the units, and my 510 now works like brand new, and I’ve finally <span class=3DSpellE>expierenced</span> digital recording/decoding. <span = class=3DSpellE><span class=3DGramE>Mmmmm</span></span><span = class=3DGramE>…..digital.</span><o:p></o:p></span></font></p> <p class=3DMsoNormal><font size=3D2 face=3DArial><span = style=3D'font-size:10.0pt; font-family:Arial'><o:p> </o:p></span></font></p> <p class=3DMsoNormal><font size=3D2 face=3DArial><span = style=3D'font-size:10.0pt; font-family:Arial'>Anyway, <span class=3DSpellE>heres</span> the numbers = off the chips if anyone can tell me exactly what the difference = is:<o:p></o:p></span></font></p> <p class=3DMsoNormal><font size=3D2 face=3DArial><span = style=3D'font-size:10.0pt; font-family:Arial'><o:p> </o:p></span></font></p> <p class=3DMsoNormal><font size=3D2 face=3DArial><span = style=3D'font-size:10.0pt; font-family:Arial'>320 – IC121: cxd2652ar – IC124: Panasonic mn41v4400sj-DR<o:p></o:p></span></font></p> <p class=3DMsoNormal><font size=3D2 face=3DArial><span = style=3D'font-size:10.0pt; font-family:Arial'>510 – IC121: CXD2650R – IC124: not = there<o:p></o:p></span></font></p> <p class=3DMsoNormal><font size=3D2 face=3DArial><span = style=3D'font-size:10.0pt; font-family:Arial'><o:p> </o:p></span></font></p> <p class=3DMsoNormal><font size=3D2 face=3DArial><span = style=3D'font-size:10.0pt; font-family:Arial'>I also noticed IC101 which is the A2523AR in the 320 differs, don’t have exact numbers.
