DS charger port pinout

Post by Super Cameraman »

I have a DS (phat) board but no charger. I figure, it shouldn't be too hard to find a power brick with the same voltage as the DS charger and just solder the wires to where they have to be. Anyone know a pinout of the original DS's charger port? And how many volts it has to be?
If you're looking at this post and it was made before 2008, just ignore it.

It's the same as a GBASP. Hold it so the side with four contacts is facing up. Leftmost contact is +5V, rightmost contact is ground. It can take a maximum of 5.2V.
