[QUOTE="blisters, post: 161809, member: 4992"] You might also find some electronic components do not have identifying marks. In that case you would have to understand the circuit intention to identify the unmarked component. If the circuit is driven by the chip then it becomes very difficult to determine the circuit function without the code. While what I have said may not be the situation with what you are copying it should demonstrate just how difficult it can get very quickly to reverse engineer. You would be better putting effort into understanding the theory and design rather than copying. If you measure a detectors coil transmit and receive over various targets and depths you'd get a good idea of the theory of operation together with the circuitry and supporting code that is required.
