Description

ところで、上記した遊技の制御基板では、回路の動作検証や故障箇所の特定等を目的として、例えばデジタルオシロスコープ等の測定器を用いた検査を行い得るように構成されることが望ましい。特に、遊技機の主制御基板は、遊技の主要な制御を行うものであり、遊技の公平性や信頼性を担保するためにはその必要性が極めて高い。しかしながら、表面実装部品は、ディップ実装部品と比較すると、端子が細かったり、端子間が狭かったりするものが多い。そのため、そのような検査を適切に行えないおそれがある。もっとも、表面実装部品は、ディップ実装部品よりも入手しやすく安価であることも多い。そのような観点からすると、表面実装部品を使用せずに主制御基板を設計した場合にはその製造コストが増加してしまうという問題も生じる。Incidentally, it is desirable that the above-mentioned control board for games is configured so that it can be inspected using a measuring instrument such as a digital oscilloscope for the purpose of verifying the operation of the circuit and identifying the faulty part. In particular, the main control board of a gaming machine mainly controls the game, and it is extremely necessary to ensure the fairness and reliability of the game. However, compared with dip-mounted components, surface-mounted components often have thin terminals and narrow terminal intervals. Therefore, there is a risk that such inspection cannot be performed properly. However, surface-mounted components are often easier to obtain and cheaper than dip-mounted components. From this perspective, if the main control board is designed without using surface-mounted components, the manufacturing cost will increase.

本発明は、製造コストの削減を図ることができる遊技機を提供することを目的とする。 An object of the present invention is to provide a gaming machine that can reduce manufacturing costs.
