Chips & Silicon¶
Chips are advanced electronic components used to craft modules. The chip tier determines the module's mark (MK1, MK2, or MK3). All chips are built on a Silicon Wafer base.
Silicon Wafer¶
The Silicon Wafer is the substrate for all chips.
Step 1 — Silicon Mix (shapeless crafting):
3× Quartz Dust + 1× Coal Dust → 1× Silicon Mix
Step 2 — Silicon Wafer (smelting):
Smelt Silicon Mix in a Kiln or furnace → 1× Silicon Wafer
Chip Recipes¶
All chips use the same pattern:
[Ender Dust] [Resin Clump] [Ender Dust]
[Ender Dust] [Core Dust ] [Ender Dust]
[Ender Dust] [Silicon Wfr] [Ender Dust]
Where "Core Dust" is the substance that defines the chip type. All chips yield 4× per craft.
Redstone Chip¶
Yields: 4× Redstone Chip — Ender Dust (×6) + Resin Clump + Redstone + Silicon Wafer
Used in: MK1 tier modules (Extractor MK1, Provider MK1, Passive Supplier, Crafter MK1, Item/Mod Item Sink, Terminus)
Amethyst Chip¶
Same pattern as Redstone Chip but with Amethyst Dust in the center slot.
Yields: 4× Amethyst Chip
Used in: MK2 tier modules (Extractor MK2, Provider MK2, Active Supplier, Crafter MK2, Enchantment Sink)
Echo Chip¶
Same pattern but with Echo Dust in the center slot.
Yields: 4× Echo Chip
Used in: MK3 tier modules (Extractor MK3, Crafter MK3, Polymorphic Sink, Quicksort)
Carbon Chip¶
Same pattern but with Coal Dust in the center slot.
Yields: 4× Carbon Chip
Used in: Item Sink Module only
Chip Tier Summary¶
| Chip | Tier | Module Grade |
|---|---|---|
| Redstone Chip | 1 | MK1 / base modules |
| Amethyst Chip | 2 | MK2 / enhanced modules |
| Echo Chip | 3 | MK3 / highest tier modules |
| Carbon Chip | Special | Item Sink only |
Progression Note¶
Chips are mid-to-late game components. To craft them you need: 1. Macerator — to produce Ender Dust, Quartz Dust, Coal Dust, and other dusts 2. Kiln — to smelt Silicon Mix into Silicon Wafer 3. Source of Resin Clumps (vanilla item, found in mangrove swamps)
