PS2 Hardware Documentation and Service Manuals

[SilverBull]

Hi,

as such a thread didn't exist yet, I though it was time to create one :110:. I have attached links to some of the more interesting documentation files for the PS2 hardware; nothing new for old school members, but it might be useful to have them all listed in one location.

If you have any other files you want to contribute to this thread, please respond or PM so I can add them to the first post.

Contributors in alphabetical order (see Contents Overview and Update History below for details):

Contents Overview
The Service Manuals are just that: official Sony service manuals, including Exploded Views, Block Diagram, Printed Wiring Boards, Schematics and Electrical Parts Lists. Attached to the one for the SCPH-30000 series is the official disassembly manual, just in case anyone wants to know how a PS2 shall be disassembled The Official Way ;-).
Many thanks to lherre and ChiefPFF for providing some of these manuals.

Hardware Documentation includes the manuals from the PS2 Linux Kit (English). According to Ralek, these manuals are identical to the one from the v5 documentation set. The SPU2 overview manual is missing in the PS2 Linux kit.
Many thanks to Ralek for providing a full version 6 documentation set (including SPU2) and to unclejun for providing the v4 SPU2 overview manual as well as the complete PS2 2001 Technical Reference Disc :thumbsup:.

The Sony Libraries section includes the DNAS SDK (NoHDD Version) Release 3.0. Many thanks to lherre for providing this file!

Some people might wonder about the LSI Logic 1394 Documentation and how they are related to the PS2. In fact, the 1394/FireWire/i.Link controller of the earlier models (SCPH-30000 series) uses parts from the 1394 Lead Vehicle discussed in one of these documents (the other ones describe related controllers, which is needed sometimes to understand the big one). So, if anybody wants to use 1394 in his homebrewn programs, these documents could proof really useful, as there is no other documentation on the PS2 hardware registers related to this port.
Of course, the PS2 uses a different base address and not all registers are mapped; for example, some DMA-related ones are missing. However, PHT, UBUF (for PIO-mode data transmissions) and also DMA are available and work well :nod:.

Special thanks to sp193 for providing these additional information:
All registers are available, except for these registers:


0x058 Encoded Interrupt Priority
0x0CC DBUF Watermarks Register 0
0x0D0 DBUF FIFO Size Register 0
0x14C DBUF Watermarks Register 1
0x150 DBUF FIFO Size Register 1


DMA support is working and fully functional, and the PHY can be accessed.


Other bits and Pieces includes stuff that didn't fit into any other section. "DVD-ROM Block Adjustment JIG" and "Basic Process of Adjustment for DVD-ROM" are a kind of "cheat sheet" for servicing a PS2's optical drive. The first page lists the required hardware and software tools (including a picture of the official service hardware), the second one provides a brief overview of the software tools. The software tools themselves are not included :katamari:.
"Serial Label Operating Standard for PS2" provides information on how console serial numbers are handled.
Last but not least, I uploaded some scans of the DTL-T10000 instruction manual (english part only).


Best regards,
SilverBull

I have to look for in my hdd, but I think I have more Service Manuals.

[Alchy]

Thanks for sharing. If you do come across anything on the sound chip, please let me know.

[SilverBull]

I have to look for in my hdd, but I think I have more Service Manuals.
Glad to hear, looking forward to whatever you find :thumbsup:.


Thanks for sharing. If you do come across anything on the sound chip, please let me know.
I have a hardcopy of the DTL-P11007 (SPU2 Overview) manual version 3, but unfortunately its in japanese :banghead:. However, parts of the technical reference information (register names, parameter value encodings etc.) are in english, so one could possibly get some information out of it. Could make some hi-res scans if there is any interest, but that would have to wait a few weeks until I can get back to where it is located.

[Alchy]

Ah, that's a shame. I was after a more general overview of the chip's capabilities, rather than low-level stuff. It's probably not worth your hassle scanning it in, but if you were going to scan it anyway, I'd still be interested in taking a look.

[lherre]

Some things I found in my hdd (I have more, but are too big).

This is the DNAS Library (NoHDD Version) Release 3.0 package
for SCEA titles.

Adding links to first post.

[unclejun]

I have the SPU2 pdf manual somewhere and a slideshow of the general overview of its capabilities from an old conference...I'll post the files later.

[Alchy]

That's exactly what I'm after, thanks unclejun.

Alchy, you have a PM!

[Ralek]

First post, so don't kill me

I noticed that the set of System Docs in the first post was only edition 5, so I uploaded the full set of edition 6.
http://rapidshare.com/files/146953085/SystemDocs6.0.rar.html - Pass is "ASSEMblergames.com"
This includes:

I'm also trying to upload another document set, the korean version of the PS2 SDK 3.0.0 docs.
My internet's acting up at the moment, randomly cutting out during the upload, so i'll update this post when its up.

Update:
Ok, finally got the korean docs uploaded.
http://rapidshare.com/files/147042810/tools_libs-docs-3.0.0-korean.rar.html - Pass is "ASSEMblergames.com"

Found this on a korean developer's website a few years ago. Not sure if this will be of use to anyone, but figured i'd share it anyway.

[Alchy]

Ralek, thank you. Unclejun, you just provided what I asked from you in a PM, so thanks! And also thanks for what you already sent me. This forum continues to amaze.

[SilverBull]

unclejun, Ralek, many thanks for sharing :thumbsup::thumbsup:

Updating first post.

[unclejun]

Here's another thing, the 2001 Technical Reference disc:

[Alchy]

What's the password, unclejun?

[unclejun]

I used the default password chosen by SilverBull
Password for all files is " @ASSEMblergames!com" (without quotes) unless noted otherwise.

[Alchy]

Cheers.

[SilverBull]

unclejun, thanks for sharing.

I'm going to add the password to every single link in the first post, should make it easier to be recognized.

[kammedo]

A bit late but better than never ;)
Thanks!

[ChiefPFF]

Here's one that I've got but you haven't posted already. To be fair, it's not very useful, but may as well add it for completeness. :)

By the way, does anybody have the Quality Assurance discs mentioned in this manual?

SCD 4515 (Part No. J-250-407-3A)
SVD 4514 (Part No. J-250-407-0A)

[N5NG]

The password don't work bro ;(

[SilverBull]

The password don't work bro ;(That's strange, as I thought I had tested them all. Which file are you trying to open?

Did you try to enter the password manually? Some browsers might omit the leading space when copying the password to the clipboard.

[SilverBull]

Some additions.

[Infrid]

thanks!

[angelwolf71885]

dont mean to necro bump but the service manual for the 39000 is a megupload link
and since the FBI raid hasn't worked
if someone could re-upload it i would appreciate it

[root670]

All the links are dead :(

[laker]

Could someone re-upload ps2 dnas library?

[CodeAsm]

Yes, please someone or OP first, Reupload? we can try Torrent, or ill have some 50Mb on my own host left.

[laker]

no one reupload the files?

[Piratero]

I'll torrent the files ASAP. Can someone please upload them?

[pool7]

Also looking to get these files; willing to seed as well :)

[sp193]

There is an error in the first post, but I'm sure that SilverBull just didn't update it:


Some people might wonder about the LSI Logic 1394 Documentation and how they are related to the PS2. In fact, the 1394/FireWire/i.Link controller of the earlier models (SCPH-30000 series) uses parts from the 1394 Lead Vehicle discussed in one of these documents (the other ones describe related controllers, which is needed sometimes to understand the big one). So, if anybody wants to use 1394 in his homebrewn programs, these documents could proof really useful, as there is no other documentation on the PS2 hardware registers related to this port.
Of course, the PS2 uses a different base address and not all registers are mapped; for example, PHY Access and all DMA-related ones are missing. However, PHT and UBUF (for PIO-mode data transmissions) are available and work well :nod:.

All registers are available, except for these registers:


0x058 Encoded Interrupt Priority
0x0CC DBUF Watermarks Register 0
0x0D0 DBUF FIFO Size Register 0
0x14C DBUF Watermarks Register 1
0x150 DBUF FIFO Size Register 1


DMA support is working and fully functional, and the PHY can be accessed.

[DefectX11]

I would seed for all the files, just looking to get the Tool documentation.

[SilverBull]

There is an error in the first post, but I'm sure that SilverBull just didn't update it:[...]Thanks for spotting :cool-new:. You are right, I really didn't update this post for a long time. I don't remember why I thought the PHY was not accessible; I have actually been using the PHY access register in Kermit from the start, to perform bus resets when DBGCORE gets loaded.

By the way, I think your list contains an error as well: 0x54 UBUF Receive Level is indeed accessible, at least from the EE and on the systems Kermit runs on. I use it to check for inbound data...

[pool7]

Glad to see you back in this post SilverBull :)
Any chance you can re-upload the documents in the first post?

[SilverBull]

Glad to see you back in this post SilverBull :)Any chance you can re-upload the documents in the first post?A lot of stuff has been contributed by other members, and I'm not sure whether I downloaded everything that's linked here. I'll go and check what I have.Any suggestions where to upload? Seems sharehosters are dropping like flies, and I do not want to torrent anything for certain reasons.

[pool7]

The ones I've been using (though can't say how long my files will stay since I recently uploaded them) are: hotfile, 4shared, mediafire and uploading.com

[SilverBull]

The ones I've been using (though can't say how long my files will stay since I recently uploaded them) are: hotfile, 4shared, mediafire and uploading.comThanks, but they all seem to require an account (albeit free, but still... :concern:). I would really like to avoid that, for the same reason as I want to avoid torrents.

I use it to check for inbound data...

You're right. Well, I did just copy that list of registers from an old post at the forums ps2dev.org, after removing the registers from the list that were present (But obviously, I did miss the UBUF Receive level). D:

I've been documenting the IOP module API's and the DMAC's registers (Including our findings on DMAC #3), so do you think that would it be a good idea to add a link to my page once it's complete?


Thanks, but they all seem to require an account (albeit free, but still... ). I would really like to avoid that, for the same reason as I want to avoid torrents.

Mediafire doesn't require an account to download files. (At least, it didn't require me to log in when I last downloaded files from it's servers)

[pool7]

SilverBull was talking about uploading files; and he's right, these all require an account for that. No account needed for download though, just like you mention.

I'll see if I can find one that does not require account for uploading; else I'll try to setup and FTP.

[root670]

any update on them getting reuploaded?

[pool7]

@SilverBull
I can provide a temp ftp for you to upload the files you have, and then I can upload them to a file sharing site and share the links here.
Feel free to PM me so I can send you the FTP details.

[pool7]

Bloody firefox crashed when I was about to click "Post Quick Reply" with a huge post... here's trying to re-create it.

Re-uploading what I have as well as some extras.
In most cases I did not have the file as originally uploaded, so I compressed them on my own.

Heads up all those links are now unusable.



Hi,

as such a thread didn't exist yet, I though it was time to create one :110:. I have attached links to some of the more interesting documentation files for the PS2 hardware; nothing new for old school members, but it might be useful to have them all listed in one location.

If you have any other files you want to contribute to this thread, please respond or PM so I can add them to the first post.

Contents Overview
The Service Manuals are just that: official Sony service manuals, including Exploded Views, Block Diagram, Printed Wiring Boards, Schematics and Electrical Parts Lists. Attached to the one for the SCPH-30000 series is the official disassembly manual, just in case anyone wants to know how a PS2 shall be disassembled The Official Way ;-).
Many thanks to lherre and ChiefPFF for providing some of these manuals.

Hardware Documentation includes the manuals from the PS2 Linux Kit (English). According to Ralek, these manuals are identical to the one from the v5 documentation set. The SPU2 overview manual is missing in the PS2 Linux kit.
Many thanks to Ralek for providing a full version 6 documentation set (including SPU2) and to unclejun for providing the v4 SPU2 overview manual as well as the complete PS2 2001 Technical Reference Disc :thumbsup:.

The Sony Libraries section includes the DNAS SDK (NoHDD Version) Release 3.0. Many thanks to lherre for providing this file!

Some people might wonder about the LSI Logic 1394 Documentation and how they are related to the PS2. In fact, the 1394/FireWire/i.Link controller of the earlier models (SCPH-30000 series) uses parts from the 1394 Lead Vehicle discussed in one of these documents (the other ones describe related controllers, which is needed sometimes to understand the big one). So, if anybody wants to use 1394 in his homebrewn programs, these documents could proof really useful, as there is no other documentation on the PS2 hardware registers related to this port.
Of course, the PS2 uses a different base address and not all registers are mapped; for example, some DMA-related ones are missing. However, PHT, UBUF (for PIO-mode data transmissions) and also DMA are available and work well :nod:.

Special thanks to sp193 for providing these additional information:


Other bits and Pieces includes stuff that didn't fit into any other section. "DVD-ROM Block Adjustment JIG" and "Basic Process of Adjustment for DVD-ROM" are a kind of "cheat sheet" for servicing a PS2's optical drive. The first page lists the required hardware and software tools (including a picture of the official service hardware), the second one provides a brief overview of the software tools. The software tools themselves are not included :katamari:.
"Serial Label Operating Standard for PS2" provides information on how console serial numbers are handled.
Last but not least, I uploaded some scans of the DTL-T10000 instruction manual (english part only).


Best regards,
SilverBull

It seems like some of the files have been terminated again. :(

What does the "Serial Label Operating Standard" document contain exactly? Does it document something related to customer service like the procedure on how the consoles' serial numbers are to be handled when a console is received, or does it document something technical how the serial numbers are verified/generated?

I'm personally interested in knowing how the serial numbers are generated, as I'll love see what the serial number of a console can tell us about the unit itself...

Thanks for the upload!

Well, the document talked about how serial numbers are handled by SCEE... but nothing about how they are generated/verified. Oh well.
