Superjoy III Battery Terminals (title fixed alas gannon)

Retromaster · Post by **Retromaster** » Wed Jan 03, 2007 4:42 pm

OK, so for christmas about three years ago I aqquired a superjoy three noac. Only until recently I opened it up and started drawing schematics on how a future portable should be.
so Now I opened it and whoever soldered this had epilepsy, dislexia, too much caffiene, was depressed, and had turrets. The wires connecting to the battery terminal came off the board. I should be able to find out where they go, but the labels are inacurate. please post pics or coordinates where the positive battery wire goes to on the board.

Sorry I can't help you, but arn't these things done in solder baths?

as in solder baths do you mean globs of solder?
They don't look like they wetre soldered by a machine. this pirate stuff is cheap.

Let me give you a little bit of info my good friend.

A) No offense, but some of your posts are rather...weird.

All right, now that this is out of the way, here is a brief history of the NOAC. Japan makes lot of good money on Famicom, Chinese pirates want to get in on it. They made a chip which can emulate the board. Now they make this and package it up in the ghettoest manner ever. From what I read, they use custom made PCB's, made by some workers, then the IC glop top is put on by some machine, and then hundreds of other workers solder up the extra stuff, they are all hastily stuffed in a styrofoam box and packaged off so other people can buy these smart but cheap pieces of hardware.

Check the NES sticky, and see if any of the NOAC pics matches the one you have.

the noac sticky doesn't really have anything on the battery terminal
Here is my version of noac:

Wow...just wow...just open up G-forces document on the ultimate NOAC guide...and be done with!

(ITS THE SAME THING

)

Well, not to defect from G forces excellent documents, but all I really want to know where the battery wires go, because the documents only describe the pin connectors and pinouts.

Look closely at your pictures, hell, even I can see that it clearly shows Bat - and Bat + points.

I saw those too, but I coudn't find excess solder or the remaining negative battery wire on those ports.

Don't be dense - we aren't magic people. You've got to start somewhere. Try soldering your four AAs to the BAT pads. Or even harder, see where the traces go from the power jack.

I'd guess most of these machines are hand-soldered - although the ones with more pads or surface mounts or wave or reflow soldered (much neater)

The question's already been answered, and you are being an idiot in your own thread. Locked.
