PSP PINOUTS?

I FINALLY REGISTERED. · Wed May 04, 2005 12:55 am

the controler pinouts, and possibly video/audio outputs are what im looking for.

im thinking of console-izing my psp, and using a "verbatum" brand 50 pack cd spindle as the case, and a hand built controler using parts (analog) from a n64 controler and tact switches.

im also thinking about using the rgb out from a n64, so i can use the cable on my tv.

im thinking about simply using the power supply the psp came with.

help?

How the hell do you expect to make a console out of a PSP?! The screen interfaces digitally to the motherboard, not through RGB or composite.

As for making the external controller, follow the traces.

Search. Don't Spam.

it shouldnt be too hard, becasue i know that the lcd screen MUST accept some kind of digital signal, which shouldnt be TOO hard to export.
and... i could just follow the speakers to find the audio out.

You're right on the second point, but wrong on the first. Good luck figuring out the screen interface; it ain't gonna be standard DVI, I'll tell you that much.

Video would be overly ambitious. If you wait long enough I know some pirate company will probably make something similar to the GBA transvertor(I think that's what it is called). As for Audio and the controller those are doable if you want to risk popin' it open for a homemade controller

yeah, but the analog stick wont work, it doesn't use switches

That's true

. Didn't think about that.

You are dumb enough for even thinking of this, I doubt you can do it

PS3 or PS2 may even have a PSP Player (like Gamecube has GBA Player, and I soon enough expect a DS Player)

I was trying to think of a way to do this for the GBA, but it would be very difficult, it would be a while to find a site to decode everything...

GBA is fesiable, you already have Audio Out built in to the GBA, and Video can come from a TV de Advance (which yet doesn't exist for PSP or DS), controllers for the GBA can be made, some guy did with a Neo Geo Pad

making a control would be easy just hack the button if you located the RGB lines that input the screen you may be able to have an rgb out

GBA doesn't output RGB directly.
