SyncSlayer II is a premium SCART to RGBHV adapter with terminal posts for Vsync, Hsync, Csync, RGB and Audio left and right channels. It utilizes the ISL59885 by Renesas (note: the original SyncSlayer used the LMH1980 chip by Texas Instruments).
For those who are interested, the ISL59885 datasheet is here
The external power wall-wart and toggle switch b/w console and external power has been removed from this revision; and replaced with a 5V barrel connector. This device is therefore always on.
Some features of this board; mostly the same as the original SyncSlayer (from 2018):
- Renesas ISL59885 sync separator and cleaner
- 15Khz RGB output with clean sync signals for HSYNC, VSYNC and CSYNC
- Switch between true ‘HSync’ or ‘Csync as Hsync’ via pin jumper
- Switch between TTL and 75ohm terminated sync signals via pin jumper
- Power indicator LED light
- High quality RCA left & right audio connector
- Female D-Sub (VGA) connector
- High quality North American 5V power supply (device is always on)
- Matte black PCB board
This board utilizes the following components which can be ordered from Digikey / Mouser / Arrow. Female SCART connectors are a major pain to source - I have several hundred, drop me an email if you’re having troubles and I can probably help you.
