Hi! I did a lot of research but I couldn't quite understand a couple things about the wiring.

1) The guide recommends 28 gauge or thicker for powering the BT. Is that also the same for U10 3.3V? Because that thing is really thin. I have some awg 38. Will that work?
2) If I buy the PMS 2.0 which has a U10. Do I still need to remove U5?
3) If I'm using a PMS2.0 which has 1.8V Would I be able to TRIM not desolder or cut the LDO part?
4) Even if I'll be buying a U-AMP, in case I want to make a cheaper version. Would a PAM8403 Connected to Left and Right Audio work?
5) I've seen some portables that use the NDS lite buttons. Did anyone made the pcbs open source?


Thanks

1. You can use 38awg for u10
2. No you do not need to do anything with U5 or U10. Simply make the connection from the pms to the wii via
3. If you keep the ldo on, do not wire 1.8v, if you trim it off or remove it, then wire 1.8v from the pms
4. Yes you can use a PAM or another audio amp however these typically do not have a headphones amplifier which the uamp does
5. I believe so, however I'm not sure where they are now. I think the downloads were on the bitbuilt store which was taken down
 
Thanks for answering and everything you have done to the community
