I have a neo board with a dead LSPC2-A2 and I was wondering if there was any way I can buy a replacement chip that sits on a board that I can easily solder or something. If not, can I at least get a replacement chip?

You will probably need to rob it from another Neo Geo. Fortunately should be commonly found on those Chinese MVS single slots you can get cheaply through AliExpress. You will need a hot air focus station to remove the old chip, the donor chip, and then solder the donor chip into place.

Only worthwhile if the bad Neo board is a valuable one.

Ok, it’s an aes but I don’t think it’s worth it. I’ll just keep the board for parts.

I have a 2-slot MVS that works, but has some minor graphical bugs on one slot. I think it might be able to provide an LSPC2-A2 as a donor. I have at least one MV1FZS with bad audio that has this chip as well. PM me if you think you might want one for parts.

I bet the chip can be removed with just chipquik if you are careful, so the transplant may not be too bad.
