Update: Found the images here GUIDE: Preventing SOCD on any common-ground PCB by using 7400 chips
New question now: would these suffice for the ICs? https://www.ebay.ca/itm/10PCS-SN74HC00N-74HC00N-74HC00-DIP-14-IC-Original-TI/291884310700?hash=item43f5a920ac:g:SmYAAOSwmfhX5Bxk im assuming Iâll need resistors here as well
Anyone have experience pad hacking a qanba drone? I have a drone PCB that I want to drop into a new case with a korean stick.
jasen did a breakdown video about the drone. the pcb is nicely labeled so it should be an easy hack
Iâm making a Sega Genesis stick with a padhacked PCB. Could I use a DB9 connector like this as a passthrough port with a Genesis extension cable to have a detachable cord?
You could, keep in mind that connector is a double sided connector.
Iâve been doing research on this question, but have received conflicting answers. Is it possible to use a USB headset or a Bluetooth headset on a Playstation 4 to do voice chat and talk with other players?
I going to go with the official Sony instructions here. And yes Sony is very unclear about 3rd party headset support.
Sonyâs article on Bluetooth Headset setup
Long story short the PS4 isnât compatible with any Bluetooth headset, only particular/select models of wireless headsets can be used. All Wireless headsets need to have a matching USB dongle to work on the PS4.
PS4⢠Wireless Compatible Headsets
NEW Gold Wireless Headset (model CUHYA-0080)
Gold Wireless Headset (model CECHYA-0083)
PULSE Elite Wireless Stereo Headset (model CECHYA-0086)
Platinum Wireless Stereo Headset (model CECHYA-0090)
PS3⢠Wireless Stereo Headset (CECHYA-0080)
So if your Bluetooth headset isnât on this list, and it does not have a wired option, it is not going to work with the one exception.
Now The PS4 console can support âalmostâ any USB headset. A Wireless headsets with a matching USB dongle receiver should work. This should work with Bluetooth headsets with matching (and preset) dongle. The catch is not every dongle is going to work, the typical $9 bluetooth dongle you would use on your PC isnât going to work. You will need a dongle like this here, amazon link shown as an example.

This thing works as the PS4 seeâs the headset as a USB headset and you are pairing with the adapter and not the PS4.
As for voice chat options
Output to Headphones
You can set the audio that is output to the device such as a headset. You can output all audio, or output only chat audio. Select [Sound and Screen] > [Audio Output Settings] > [Output to Headphones]. The default setting is [Chat Audio].
Iâve been trying to find a way to share lever and buttons between two separate boards in the same case. Does anyone have a preferable way of doing this? My first thought was some 10PDT switches or similar but Iâd like to see what other options are out there.
Example hardware scenario:
Brook retro board, JLF w/ 5 pin connector, pushbuttons with flat quick disconnect terminals.
Iâd like to add a Sega Genesis 6-button PCB in there and run a separate d-sub 9 connector out. Iâm just not sure of a clean and serviceable way to share the inputs between the two PCBs.
anyone know the dimensions (specifically the distance between screw holes) for a Crown 309MJ?
I canât seem to find it anywhere. I want to see if I have the space in the box i want to put it in
If the PCBs are common ground, run at the same voltage, and donât draw too much juice, you may be able to tie the power, the ground, and signal lines for the PCBs together. Thatâs the first approach that Iâd look into.
@Rufus
Thanks for your response.
Iâll start looking into how this would play out. I also just found the slagcoin page with a bit of info about dual pcb setups. I guess I didnât originally think I would simultaneously power both pcbs but it makes sense why that would be necessary if there wasnât some sort of switch to completely isolate them from each other. Hopefully this doesnât cause any issues with the consoles themselves, especially modded ones that already have additional boards inside.
i dont think voltage needs to be exactly the same. i remember dual modding a ps360+ with a tvc wii board which operate at 5v and 3.3v respectively, if im not mistaken. common ground is an absolute necessity though.

I would like to see pictures if you have them.
i undid the mod a long time ago, sorry
Thatâs okay.
So ⌠I won a Hori 360 VLX. Iâm trying to find guides online to get the stick up to snuff with a Brook UFB, but my attempts so far have not been fruitful. Even went as far as to check the original threads for the PS3 and 360 VLXs to no avail. Am trying to figure out which wiring would go where.
All I can tell you is break out a multimeter, a note pad, maybe the camera on your phone.
Start taking notes, if you need to use masking tape to label wiring.
Sometimes you gotta go old school.
Sorry if this is the wrong thread, but can anyone vouch for how easy/hard it is getting an image onto a clear acrylic surface, for an arcade stick skin, or any advice on what methods?
I want to build an arcade stick thatâs see through but with a background-less image on it (think transparent PNGâs) but Iâm not sure where to start.
There so many ways to do that, clear decals, laser etching, CNC etching, UV Prints, silk screening, ect.
