Title: DS Phat power points on the board.
Post by: mattech on May 20, 2009, 01:53:01 AM

Hi all. I have only just started modding the insides of DS's and would like a little help. I have used the SLOT 2 pins to power a single 0603 led, (pin 1 - pin 32 +). Is this a good place to use to power more leds from? If so, does anyone know the limit to the number of leds it can power or the limit to what current it can supply before I damage any componants?
 Leading on from that... I had alook at the Pulse VU instal guide. It is wired up to the VDD3.3 point and the U1-GND point. Would this location be a better place to power the leds from? & again what can I draw from here before doing any damage?
  TOO MANY QUESTIONS! Sorry.

 I have loads of ideas for the phat but, as yet, I dont have the technical knowhow. Its been 16 years since my last physics lesson!  :boxed:

 Thanks in advance, Mattech.
