Redkid is a system-on-a-chip by Digital Media Cartridge.
It contains a clone of a Motorola 68000 and a clone of a Yamaha YM7101, the components that make up a Sega Genesis, on a single chip.
Redkid chips were commonly used in early AtGames Sega Genesis-based consoles.
Versions
The original Redkid, abbreviated by AtGames as RK, had sound issues and graphical issues in some games.
