 ====== N64 RGB Amplifier (IC Based) ======
-High quality RGB output from early NTSC (US/JP) Nintendo 64 systems is possible by building a simple video amplifier/driver based off of the [[http://semicon.njr.co.jp/njr/hp/fileDownloadMedia.do?_mediaId=364|NJM2267]].  As a rule of thumb, **only** Nintendo 64 systems with serial numbers starting with **NS1xxxxxxxx (US)** or **NUJ133xxxxx (JP)** have the **'VDC-NUS'** or **'VDC-NUS A'** ICs that exposes RGB output for use in this mod.  Newer models use different ICs that cannot be tapped for RGB modification.  For more details, visit this [[http://nfggames.com/forum2/index.php?topic=3231.msg21527#msg21527|thread]].

 RGB can be easily tapped from the underside of the N64 PCB, as indicated (C124, C125, C126)

-This build also contains a fourth set of components for an additional signal, though is not applicable for the N64, as composite sync is already wired to the AV output connector! :)

-This modification has been tested out on several XRGB-3 units and a Sony PVM-2030 with perfect results!
+This modification has been tested out on several XRGB-3 units and a Sony PVM-2030 with perfect results!  Stock SHVC-010 cables can be used with the resulting system.  Note that the 220uF electrolytic capacitors used for NTSC SNES RGB cables are not necessary for connecting the RGB output from the N64.
 However:
