Game Boy Camera

[sillyhatday]

I have made my own PCB for the Arduino cart reader. Using version 1.6 works perfectly every time. Using version 1.8 never works, it can never read any cartridge. All cartridge edge connectors have been properly cleaned and work in a Game Boy. Whatever I do I cannot get the Game Boy Camera to be detected in any version. I'd love to backup the photos on it but nothing seems to work. Any ideas?

Hi there, if you try the GB camera and you don't see any valid header information, there may be a good chance that it's being inserted upside down. This seems to happen every now and then so please double check that if you can.

Sounds stupid but I questioned myself. I was definitely putting the cart in the correct way around. It is reading a < when pulling the header information. Which just crashes the Python script. The cartridge does work properly in a Gameboy. I had the camera apart to properly clean edge connector contacts, so it works in the Gameboy reliably

Is the CLK line tried to ground? Using a 5V Arduino?

Yes, it is tied to ground and it is a 5v Arduino.
