Batman Forever
Sega, 1995Anyone know the part number or where to purchase the optos used on Sega ball trough single opto boards (BF specifically.) I heard both the transmitter and receiver are the same part but I can't find it on Marco (where I'm putting together an order.)
Thanks!
Are you talking about the LEDs on the board? Sega/stern just use ultra-red leds, unlike wms who used an infrared transmitter and receiver.
Check out this pinwiki entry:

It includes a link to the Stern schematics for the trough opto boards.
By the way, what problem are you having? Have you just tried reflowing all the solder on the opto boards? These are notorious for bad solder that cracks and causes problems.
