Hacking AEIComp LCD screens

If you're making a portable you probably need something to watch it on. (Unless you want to guess what's happening in the game, but I wouldn't advise that) Anyway, this forum is your "Hacking a pocket TV/screen" one-stop solution. Share your experiences and knowledge here.

These are the screens Ben himself uses. I do not know if this is the method he uses but I hacked about 4 screens so far with this method and its working pretty good. Have fun!

Great work! Do you also know how to build a sound amp for this screen?

Come on... sound amps are easy! Just do a Google search! :roll:

Thanks a lot for the documentation, by the way. I've been looking for more information on these screens for a while now. I emailed the company, but all they could spare me was a datasheet, which I guess was a little helpful.

I'm just glad you were able to give me some close-ups of different angles and stuff... that's what I was REALLY looking for... :)

Ok! I just finished the write up on the Audio Amp!!!

Note that this is only for Mono Audio. That is it is good for NES and Atari portables. When I get around to it I will make another for Stereo.

Thank you for spelling everything out about building an audio amp. I've researched it before, but got caught up in the specifics and gave up on building one. I love how you made it specific to portables, which is perfect for here!
