The individual designs have the following characteristics:

Board marking | ROM | RAM | RAM backup | Technology | Memory Bank Controller
------------------|--------|---------|----------------------------|------------|--------------------------------
ROM+RAM(+BATT) | 32 KiB | 8 KiB | external battery/capacitor | SMD | none
ROM+RAM+BATT | 32 KiB | 8 KiB | coin cell battery holder | SMD | none
ROM+RAM+BATT EVAL | 32 KiB | 8 KiB | external battery | THT | none
ROM+MBC+RAM+BATT | 1 MiB | 128 KiB | coin cell battery holder | SMD | 74xx ICs loosely imitating MBC5

So far, only __ROM+RAM+BATT__ and __ROM+RAM+BATT EVAL__ have been manufactured and only the ROM related functionality has been tested.
