3.3v

Could this be run off a 4.5 v dc adapter or would it be too much voltage and fry it?

i've heard some of the older ones an go up to 5v

the nus-001 i believe, or something of that sort... nus- something something 1... heard they take up to 5v like previously mentioned, i believe if yu look behind the cart slot theres a bit of mobo with a stamp that says nus-***

i was told nus-001 go up to 5v. Buy a regulator(or resistor?) to get to right voltage

couldnt 2 AAs work for the 3.3v with the 2 7.2v radioshack 3000mah batteries

actually, 3 rechargeable AAs would be best if you want a separate battery source for the 3.3v line...I'm pretty sure most N64s can handle 3.6v...I'm not sure, though, so if it frys, don't blame me

!!!

btw, 2 AAs would do the trick as well, but they wouldn't last long and the sound/picture would be a bit screwed up

Like I mentioned in another thread, an LM117 or LM317 would be best. I am going to order some samples in a few weeks.

Free Samples?

it's an adjustable regulator

is thier any good 3v batteries that would work great for this purpose

Here is the information page for National's LM117/LM317. Unfortunately, the only free sample that you can keep is the TO-252 package, which has a max output of 500mA, but I am going to get a sample to play with anyways, even if I can't use it on my 3.3V line.
