The gamecube triggers are analog, so I want them to only be on or off, without the slide potentiometer.

I've nearly finished my portable, but I just found out that the trigger buttons won't fit. So how would I change the triggers to non-analog?

I'm doing a gamecube portable and I can tell you right now that the disk drive is a beast (especially since its my first time soldering).

The xbox sucks up a crazy amount of power, like 80 amps. So unless you have a whole bunch of money, its hard to power by battery

actually its pretty easy

1. Attach battery to dreamcast
2. Attach left audio, right audio, and video to screen
3. Attach controller
4. Put in awesome case

And your done!!!

No
the switching regulator is lowering the 15v to 8v for the screen. The 15v goes to the gamecube. And I would love to use the magic way to power the gamecube with 7.4v batteries, but I have no idea how to do that on a Rev C gamecube.

That's the plan.
Now I just need a box that's not too big.

I think the problem is that there is interference from the switching regulator. When I use the 8v linear regulator that came with the screen, the picture is perfect.

The PSU puts out 12v, and the battery is around 15 to 16 volts. The switching regulator is working correctly.

Whoa thats really small!

The regulator is lowering the input voltage (battery, PSU) to 8v. And I don't have an oscilloscope

When I add the capacitor, it still doesn't work.

What does the uF of the capacitor have to be?

I wired up my gamecube to the psone screen. It looks a little bit grainy when I use the gamecube PSU.

However, when I use the battery, the screen goes like this

Does anyone know how to set up a switching regulator to put out 7.5v (for psone screen). Also, can the gamecube take 14.8v?
