This is a picture of the full board:
This is the MX23L4005, a combined RTC, ROM and SRAM chip:
Here you can see the RVL-CPU-01 markings and the Mitsumi DWM-W004 WiFi card:
Here you can see the Mitsumi WML-C43 Bluetooth card:
This is the optical drive; the metal part locks the drive mechanism in place and allows the drive to pick up, read, and eject the disc.
That PCB contains a sensor that detects if a disc has been inserted, so the drive can pick it up and read it.
This is the optical drive without the metal retention.
These are the optical drive controller chips: they manage all data exchanged between the Starlet and the disc drive.
This board has some interesting sharpie marks.
