Sorry for the slow reply! The chip doesn't have a brand on it. It has additional numbers though. The full text on the chip is:

S-RGB A
BA6596F
840 138

I had a quick google but couldn't find anything.

Thanks

There are a few possible hiccups which you can read about at the bottom of this page.

That's the PAL guide...
I followed it word for word on an american SNES and it worked fine.

I should probably mention why I'm trying to get RGB out of a SNES2. Basically I want to do a comparisson between the RGB output of the original US SNES and the miniSNES as I've heard that they are of slightly different quality.

I was using this guide to add RGB to output to my SNES2 and lifted the ...

Okay, I've always wondered this, and now seems like the perfect time to ask: What is the difference between composite and RGB? What are the disadvantages/advantages of each?

I use RGB SCART plugs for all my games consoles (thankfully RGB capable TVs are very common in Europe) and the difference ...

Thanks for the speedy reply.

Again, you only need this if you'll be using RGB.

Indeed I am trying to use RGB. Could you possibly tell me where I can find the composite vid signal to feed into the lm1881? I presume that it'll be somewhere around the BA6596 but I don't have a datasheet for it.

Am ...

Problem with Composite sync

Hi. I rather stupidly ripped the composite sync leg off the S-RGB A BA6596F chip of my SNES2. Is there anything I can do to sort this problem? TBH I don't really know what the comp sync signal is. Is there a similar signal anywhere else on the board?

Could I perhaps get a comp sync using this ...

I'm not a great fan of gamesx guides as I'm a bit too inexperienced in electronics. However, using the guide at http://www.mmmonkey.co.uk/console/ninte ... ches-1.htm I sucessfully modded my American SNES.

Hope this helps

SNES board smaller than a mini/jr

Hi. Although this is a dev-board, and so not available commercially, I thought I'd let you all know about it.
