Starship2

South Bridge to Starship2 to dual NAND on older FAT

South Bridge to NOR interface on newer FAT and Slims

Known as the "Starship 2". This chip is used as a flashcontroller between the South Bridge and the 2 interleaved NAND modules (See: Flash (Hardware)).

Testpoints

Although testpoints exist between South Bridge and Starship2, the protocol used on this EBUS is unknown/undocumented. This makes it impossible to use these points for a hardwareflasher : use direct wiring to the NAND chips or boardtraces instead (See Hardware_flashing#NAND_Wiring). Using direct NAND wiring/boardtraces has advantage that it makes use of the Common Flash Interface Protocol, widely documented (its in every flashchips datasheet) and supported by almost any flasher.

Non Retail

Reference Tool/DECR1000A Communication Processor Board -> Sony CXD4302GB. Instead of 2x 1Gbit NAND flash on retail models, a single 2Gbit NAND Flash is connected to the Starship2 (there is also an empty pad on the board, which suggest useability for dual NAND)
