From the project

A replacement PCB for the SEGA Digital Sound Boardscused on several SEGA arcade games

The SEGA Digital Sound Boards 1 and 2 are dedicated to playing music (the BGMs) on several SEGA games. The music is stored in maskroms specific to each game. It is a card separate from the main stack of the game, sometimes located in its own cage.

They bear the following references: 837-10084 DIGITAL AUDIO BD SEGA 1993, 171-6614B PC BD, Sticker: 837-12941 and 837-12273 DIGITAL SOUND BD 2 SEGA 1995, 171-7165D PC BD, Sticker: 837-12273-92, Sticker: 837-13376. These original cards are not very reliable and become difficult to find at a reasonable price.
