Intec PS2 LCD screen Mod

I found a controller at a junk shop for $5, and figured I would mod it onto a console. For the longest time I couldn't figure out how to add it to a console because I didn't know which cable was which. Now I figured it out: Orange: +12v (connects to a 7808 regulator so the voltage range should be greater and lesser than 12.) Black: Ground Brown: Ground Red: Right Audio input White: Left Audio input yellow: Composite video input Now I can finally build it into something. Maybe my new Sega Genesis 3, since it will fit right on the face of it and hopefully can share the same +10v power supply!

The Nintedno Gameboy Pocket's CPU pinout

I finally got around to probing the pins on the gameboy pocket's CPU and made a diagram. The CPU is not the same as the CPU inside of the original gameboy or the super gameboy SNES cartridge. When I get the chance, I will draw a schematic of the entire gameboy pocket.

Some notes:

  • The naming convention that I followed is directly from the silkscreen on the gameboy pocket itself. 
  • It would seem that the gameboy pocket's CPU has the video RAM built-in as opposed to being on the PCB since the vram buses are all hanging open. Because of this, rewiring a DMG-01's CPU or a Super Gameboy CPU to the gameboy pocket is not immediately possible. 
  •  The DMG and SGB CPU's have two pins named T1 and T2 which are tied to ground. I believe that pins 75 and 76 of the MGBCPU  are T1 and T2 respectively, but only because of their placement near the clock output. 
  • The "/" means low-enable
  • For more information what some of the pins do, see the photo near the top. Or comment below.
