Well, you could wrap tinfoil around the wire and solder ground lines to the tinfoil, but that's ghetto as fuck and will short on everything unless you then cover the tinfoil in electrical/kapton tape. Better to just replace the unshielded wires with shielded ones.is there an easy way to make unshielded wire shielded? I already soldered unshielded video connections to my board and I noticed a bit of interference. Any ideas/ products I should know about?
Alright, thanks.Well, you could wrap tinfoil around the wire and solder ground lines to the tinfoil, but that's ghetto as fuck and will short on everything unless you then cover the tinfoil in electrical/kapton tape. Better to just replace the unshielded wires with shielded ones.
Besides that, the routing of your wires is important in regards to interference. Try to keep video wires away from power wires, regulators, and the cooling fan if at all possible. Video wires should also be as short as physically possible, and if using component video, as similar in length as possible.
Would I need to wrap each individual wire in foil or all 3 as a whole?If you have the Wii Wifi modules they use shielded wire that you can steal for your video. Though with just the two you may not have enough to wire up all the wires for component. Also if you are going to just wrap tinfoil around your wire plz at least put some heatshrink over it.
I was stupid and already hotglued everything....Neither, replace what you have with shielded wire.
How on earth is unsoldering and resoldering a couple wires more troublesome than wrapping existing wires with tin foil and soldering wires to both sides of the tin foil and insulating the whole thing?
hot glue comes off easily with IPAI was stupid and already hotglued everything.
Thanks. Time to fix my mistake.hot glue comes off easily with IPA
