    Question PAM8403 make noise (hiss)

    Is the circuit completely isolated? Are there any possible EMI sources near it? Edit: Some sources online say that the PAM8403 is naturally quite noisy even with grounded inputs, but it wouldn't hurt to shield it further. Also, if the gain is quite high you'll get worse idle hiss than if the...

    Discussion DreamCast R&D and Documenting

    I'll see if I can sand down my motherboard and scan it at some point in the next few weeks. There are just lots of traces jumping back and forth between the layers that need to be mapped.

    Edit: Photo of trims not really legit. I've looked into the two ICs at the top of the board (one's got eight legs and the other has 14) and they're both audio-related. The bigger one is a custom audio ADC, but it has some generic cousins whose data sheets I'll be investigating. The little one...

    Sorry everyone for posting without checking the rules. :oops: @Gman did some work on the Dreamcast back in the ModRetro days. Kinda creepy, Gman, but I scoured your Photobucket and found your board sands and the possible trim diagram you made. Since they're not my photos, I won't post 'em...

    Might as well upload these for posterity. REDACTED If any Compendium-style layer work is to be done, they might come in handy.

    Haha no way! I always feel terrible when 3 Chozo ghosts are ganging up on me and you see Samus' face reflecting in her visor because of all the direct shots she's taking

    What Game are you Currently Playing? (Whats up!)

    Exactly! My biggest cringe was in the very beginning when the game says, "Samus has decided not to use missiles or power bombs until Adam authorizes them." Then you go around and see all the doors and passages that you could access with bombs and missiles, but you can't! Terrible way for the...

    What Game are you Currently Playing? (Whats up!)

    Yeah, you probably are! :XD: IMHO, Other M is quite bad other than the graphics and the 3rd person fighting. Especially the standing-still first person business. Plus the chauvinism and misogyny directed towards Samus.

    Post your workstation!

    I cleaned up my workstation just for this thread! Talk about motivation! :XD: ...and here's the small but nonetheless depressing console graveyard. I don't even know what happened to the Dreamcast. It bit the dust after spending the winter in a box in the garage.

    What Game are you Currently Playing? (Whats up!)

    Yeah, Prime is the best. I LOVE Fusion's smooth mechanics and graphics, but don't like the hold-your-hand gameplay.

    @Madmorda Once you play all the good ones, you've gotta play the bad one! Is Zero Mission your favorite?

    Question Trim help

    While you could get away with one of these cheapos, I'd recommend a Batteryspace smart charger. (No cell balancing, but won't break the bank either.) I have this one but this one is just about as good.

    @Shank I second this, it's easy to switch out the backlight assemblies. Might save you some hassle!

    Oh, nice. So you're looking at ≈4 hours of battery life? That's pretty great for two lipo cells!

    How much did you spend on your portable?

    Man, I wish my Pi 3 could emulate Goldeneye almost perfectly. Then I wouldn't have fried two N64 boards trying to portablize 'em.
