What chip do you have? This should work for 6592, 6594, s-enc,

I have the BA6592F and I need to build the thingy from the schematic since I can't attach the RCA connectors directly to the SNES ENC. There's no room to put it in the SNES however (or is there?). It seems quite complicated.

Also, I haven't soldered since 1999 when I got a modchip for my PSX. 

Did you have to build the signal booster? ]]> SNES component mod using the BA6594AF chip... http://nintendoage.com/forum/messageview.cfm?catid=22&threadid=83364 2012-10-01T21:19:29 -05.00 syne49 15 SNES component mod using the BA6594AF chip... http://nintendoage.com/forum/messageview.cfm?catid=22&threadid=83364 2012-10-01T19:37:22 -05.00 syne49 15 SNES component mod using the BA6594AF chip... http://nintendoage.com/forum/messageview.cfm?catid=22&threadid=83364 2012-09-06T12:09:34 -05.00 syne49 15
If you have the BA6592F, then things get a little more complicated, yes. First off, this post has Ace's schematic, it explains what components are needed on the component outputs:

Going by that schematic, for the Y signal (green), which is pin 23, you need a C945 (or 2SC945) transistor, with a 147ohm resistor.

R-Y (pin 1) and B-Y (pin 24) (red and blue) also use the same transistor, but two resistors are needed. You need a 33 ohm resistor on the transistor, and a 1k ohm resistor tied to ground. Between those two resistors is your video output for both signals.

After adding those components, all that's left is wires, RCA jacks and ground wires for the jacks. ]]> SNES component mod using the BA6594AF chip... http://nintendoage.com/forum/messageview.cfm?catid=22&threadid=83364 2012-09-05T23:23:45 -05.00 syne49 15 ]]> SNES component mod using the BA6594AF chip... http://nintendoage.com/forum/messageview.cfm?catid=22&threadid=83364 2012-09-05T21:31:02 -05.00 syne49 15
I'm happy enough with the RCA jacks though, pretty happy with myself over the uniform and even arrangement too. ]]> SNES component mod using the BA6594AF chip... http://nintendoage.com/forum/messageview.cfm?catid=22&threadid=83364 2012-09-05T20:45:48 -05.00 syne49 15


EDIT: thought I would add this link. http://www.nintendoage.com/forum/messageview.cfm?catid=22&threadid=71069 ]]> SNES component mod using the BA6594AF chip... http://nintendoage.com/forum/messageview.cfm?catid=22&threadid=83364 2012-09-05T10:12:40 -05.00 syne49 15 Originally posted by: syne49

Thankfully I am rocking the S-ENC chip in my color modded SNES. S-ENC BA6594af is my chip code. So that means I only have to go three wires? Thats really awesome haha, one more quick question. If I were to not go with the above links. Would any old phono plugs pretty much work?
Yes, any phono jacks would work. The coloring is simply for convenience. I've used composite stereo cables for component lots. Heck, here is what my SNES looked like before I bought those component jacks:

Has any one seen a breakout box with this type of connector? I'm thinking something similar to what came with older ATI video cards: a small box with the RCA connections on it with a single cable going to the PC. I'd rather have this than the RCA connectors right on the case.

Now that I think about it, I could probably just use an ATI cable. It's even purple to match the Nintendo color, although the connectors are red/white/yellow.

You're thinking of a Mini-DIN connector, like on Sega systems. Most people go with RCA jacks because they are easy to get cables for. Multi-AV type connectors sometimes need custom cables built in order to be used. If you went with a 13 pin Mini-DIN port, you could put stereo sound, composite, s-video, component, RGB, sync, ground and voltage on the same physical connector. Problem is, I don't think you can easily get most Mini-DIN ports in panel mount packaging. Perhaps the best option would be to remove the RF modulator, then glue or solder your PCB mount connector to the PCB itself. ]]> SNES component mod using the BA6594AF chip... http://nintendoage.com/forum/messageview.cfm?catid=22&threadid=83364 2012-09-05T07:49:46 -05.00 syne49 15
