Where to draw 5v on the Turbografx 16

[Shear_xear]

Hi everyone.  I have installed my Obey chip, and need to draw an additional 5v for my component chip.  I used the Hu Card pin for the Obey chip... Where else are good points to get 5v from the Turbografx?  Thanks a lot!  Mike Shear

you can get it right from the 7805 output pin.

Okay, that is easy enough.  Thanks!

Make sure you get the right side.  When facing the 7805 with the visible number and the pins pointing down, the left pin is unregulated input and will likely fry your chip. Middle pin is ground and your chip will just not work at all. Right pin is regulated 5v and it is the one you want.
