Mapper 111 is used by Memblers' Cheapocabra GT-ROM 512k self-flashable board.

It is only well-defined for 512KiB PRG, 32 KiB CHR-RAM, and 4-screen nametables.

Like iNES Mapper 030, the specific flash used on this board is the SST39SF040. Games are expected to use the chip's self-erase and self-write abilities for game saves.

The specific hardware on this board is a 74377, a 7402, and a 7410. The exact connectivity is not known, but the functions evaluated by the logic must include:

  • CHRRAMA14 = if (PPUA13==1) { n } else { c }
  • PRGROM/OE = NOT(R/W)
  • Latch on M2, /ROMSEL, A14, A12 high, and maybe on R/W low
