Anyone know if the Sega System 32 boards had suicide systems on them like the System 16 and 18s did? I have a Golden Axe 2 board which has a CR2032 battery on it which I am hoping is just for bookeeping memory and not related to any suicide system. The board has no chunky processors on it and nowhere for another battery to hide, do these boards even have suicide systems? The only ref I can find online is that Sega went for more sophisticated protection on the System 32 but no indication of what it was.

I had pulled the battery on my GARODA a number of times and swapped rom boards and never had any issues.
