The Definitive NOAC pinout/information document!

Post by TheOnlyOneHeFears » Mon May 07, 2007 1:19 pm

EDIT: Got rid of the list of credits, as everyone's credited in the doc anyway.

http://www.box.net/shared/hpl63bh0js

Download the only file there, and unzip it. It's a big file (about 4.5 megs) because of all of the pictures, but it shouldn't take too long to download on 56k. Its a MSWord document (.doc), so any Mac users should follow the link below to an online version (Thanks Skyone!). I'll also put up a PDF version soonish, if anyone wants it.

http://view.samurajdata.se/rsc/972cf5ca/

The doc contains info on 15 different NOACs, each with relevant pinouts. It also contains general info on power, audio, video, controllers and the 72 pin cart connector.
If there's anything I've missed, post it in this thread and I'll update the document. Plus, if I've failed to credit anyone in the doc, yell, and I'll change it :)

Can't wait to see this out! I also think that if you give credit in the document, you wouldn't need to get consent.

Yeah man, go for it! :D It's awesome someone took the time to put together such a vast compilation, this will help out a lot of our newer members. Can't wait to read it! And I agree, even though it's great that you're being considerate and asking if our information can be used, you really don't need consent; public domain, baby! :D

Cheers guys! Yeah, you're probably right, as I've given everyone credit in the file itself. I just thought it would be better to get permission first. BUT that's delayed the release of this thing :roll: :P

This is what I'll do: I'll upload the file in the next few days (I still have to add some stuff, and tidy it up, there's a lot going on :P). Every bit of info I've taken from other sources is credited as far as I can go. However, if I HAVE missed anyone in the file, then yell, and I'll correct it. Sound good? I'm glad this'll be useful :)

Great job man!
Though I have a request :roll: could you make a pdf file?
I'm a mac user and I don't use word, can't see the included images, or are they supposed to show as internet adresses?

Cheers guys! @sdh, skyone's kindly put it all on a website, so you can follow the link he gave. But if you have dial-up, and it takes to long to load or whatever, then I can make a PDF of it tonight, and put it up :)

Nice archive of information. This will be a one-stop place to find anything NOAC!

Nice work, but what about the FC Twin no one has found the pinout of it yet?
I created a post asking if some one could find it out (with pics) but no one replied :(

Yay :D I'm glad this has helped people. Maybe I'll get even more info, and become a NOAC guru :P I smell a custom title :twisted:
@Billybb347 Like I said, I searched for FC Twin info, but I couldn't find any. If I could get one in the UK, I'd do it myself, but no such luck :( Sorry hermano
