Anyone have Nes system schematics

Positron · Post by **Positron** » Tue May 13, 2008 9:52 pm

Does anyone know where to find complete schematics for the Nes system? What I need specificaly is a pinout for the five pin RF. I found one but it only shows three pins. Is it possible to directly connect video out without using the RF board?

Yes and yes, the pinouts are available, http://portablesofdoom.org/page.php?page=nes#14
You need to build a small amp for the video IIRC though

Thank you. I am not sure exaclty what it means on how to use the regular switch. What is Video IIRC? I have not heard that term before. Also, do you know where to find the complete schematics? Thanks again

What is Video IIRC?

That is the first place I looked. Those schematics are a bit difficult to deceifer. Also, these schematics do not seem to tell me the pinout for the RF board that I am looking for. As for the Portables of Doom site I do not know what it means by using the regular switch.

The schematics give the pinout, although not very clearly. By regular switch it means the standard NES switch.

So, on the Freeinfo schematics are the numbers towards the top the pinout of the five pins on the RF unit? I am not exaclt sure how to match it up. From the other schematics I know that the farthest left is video, then audio but what are the other three? Also, I am alittle confused on what the regular switch mod does? The switch already turns on the unit. Thank you all for your help.
