well i have a TurboExpress open with a 6280A in it

this is what should be in that cable
simply adding a 75ohm to ground from each transistor output should make it work with the caps in the cable

any updates?

50" Pioneer PDP-503CMX with PDA-5002 VIDEO CARD.

I'll have to get better pictures of it working when I get it all set up.

I got in LCD for the mod. When I checked the video chip AMT630, it supported both composite and S-Video.  So I was wondering if it'd make mod a bit easier or if I'd end up needing 2 transistors to amplify both Chroma and Luma ?  If it can be easier, it may be worth going that way instead of the usual composite route. If not easier, I'll go composite route as it's hard to see difference between s-video and composite on a 3.5" LCD. 

Too bad 3.5" LCD with analog RGB is virtually nonexistent. That would have been very easy mod since there are RGB connector for the original LCD.
the only issue is those encoder chips would need the inputs enabled in software
you would need to edit their programming

dalbani has been a solid supplier for most things, but that looks like a repop

ok remove PCZ80

jumper in clocks (jumper from pin6 to pins 15 and 22. jumper pin10 to pin11)
jumper in sync (pin16 of PCZ80 to pin40 of HuC6260)

IMG

system clock X201 change to 21.4772Mhz

IMG

color clock X202 change to 3.579545Mhz

and clip pin7 on the cxa1145 and tie it to 5V

wow, i just looked at mine, i have a few resistors marked wrong
i had R8,  R9 2K not 1K
switched R9 to 1K and the color got even better

corrected values

is this your converter?

try this one

the designators have changed
R1 AND R2 10k POT
R3 100 OHM POT
R5 10K
R17, R19, R20, R21 75 OHM
R18, R12, R6, R16, R11,R10  500 OHM
R13 15 OHM
R14, R15, R7, R8, R9,R4 1K

better black level, more consistent sync level
fixes picture washout on Genesis

also the bars are native to the system, solved by 2 caps
Quoteawhile i figured out a jailbar fix, but was waiting for further testing
the fix is placing a 22uf ceramic or tantalum cap from the HUc6260 pin 41 to ground, and another from pin 43 to ground.

it works and looks decent
just need wolve to verify my schematic, so we can have boards made
