Saturn controller, Kashi's design

[ReKleSS]

Hi all,

I tried to use Kashi's schematic to build a saturn controller, but as SaturnAR noted, it doesn't work. Could anyone say why this is, and how to make it work? A working link to SaturnAR's design would be great too.

Nevermind, got it. SaturnAR's stuff is here.


The problem with Kashi's design is that pins 3 and 14 on the upper chip need to be held low, not high - this is how the Saturn detects that a pad is connected. Also, the naming for the pins on the connector is completely wrong, but that becomes irrelevant.

Glad that you've founded by yourself.

You could try making my PSX to SS adapter too, but if you're going to make money with it, please share it...

Cheers.

I don't have a PIC burner, so I won't be trying that.... my goal was to get an arcade stick working on saturn, and the controller board works well enough for that.


There's one problem though. If more than 3 or 4 buttons are pressed at once, it stops responding completely. All controls must be released, then it goes back to normal. Any idea what's causing this?
