I had seen this, and although it did include the 5A part, there was no
mention of a K lying on it's back. I was hoping somebody would say the
reclining K was used by "Diodes-Are-Us" and I could find a data sheet.

I probed the chip on the good board and it looks like pin 1 is connect
to SIMM pin 72 through a 1k resistor and pin 3 is connected to SIMM pin
42. Pin 2 seems to be connected to nothing. If I probe across the chip
from pin 1 to 3 I see a wierd negative resistance one way and a positive
resistance the other. There is probably a capacitor somewhere messing
with the meter.

I don't have any idea what the pinout is. I searched a bit, and pin 72
might be ground and pin 42 was either a data bit or a column address strobe.

I might tack a 1N914 between pads 1 and 3 and see what happens.
