It appears that all discrete logic mappers either switch 32kB at a time with no fixed bank ("GxROM-like"), or have a 16kB fixed bank and can switch the other ("UxROM-like"). The tables below illustrate the tradeoffs between CHR, PRG, and banking style.

¹ has mapper-controlled single-screen mirroring.

Exceptions:

  • 77 has 4 bits for 2+6R CHR banking (plus 4 bits for 32 PRG banking)
  • 60 and 107 use the same bits to control both PRG and CHR banks
  • 58, 174, and 231 are various discrete logic pirate multicarts
  • 184 has 5 bits for 4+4 CHR banking
