Hello all,
One of my friends has an arcade jamma board which he dropped and damaged
the
microprocessor. The part is labeled ORION IDT 79R4600-100MS. Is it
possible if
I purchase a new one it will work? I am unsure how they work, do they get
programmed with sets of instructions or are they like PC processors where
you
can swap a dead one with a new one? I am experienced in soldering these
type of
SMT components so soldering will be no problem.
My search for this part has not been an easy one either. Any
reccomendations of
sites to try? Here is a list of what i've tried searching.

www.avnet.com
www.mouser.com
www.digikey.com
www.future-active.com
www.alliedelec.com
Any help is greatly appreciated!!! TIA!!!!
Can you find a datasheet from the manufacture? Are you sure the part is
damaged beyond repair? Often if a corner breaks off you can still do some
careful surgury.
