Signal descrptions

  • COLORBURST CLK: 3.58 MHz clock.
  • /PIXEL CLK IN, /PIXEL CLK OUT: 5.37 MHz clock. In comes from S-PPU1. Out goes to expansion port pin 22.
  • SYSTEM CLK: 21.47727 MHz clock.
  • /RESOUT0: S-PPU1 reset.
  • /RESOUT1: The main reset signal, connected to the CPU, APU, cartridge, and expansion port.
  • /RESET: Reset from CIC.
  • EXTLATCH: Lightpen input, connected to joypad IO D7.
  • /OVER1, /OVER2: /OVER from S-PPU1.
  • /TRANSPARENT: This is believed to be high whenever an opaque (sprite or tilemap) pixel is drawn.
  • EXT7..0: Video input, connected to VDB7..0.
  • DIGITAL VIDEO ENABLE: When high, TST4..0, TST9..5, and TST14..10 are digital R4..0, G4..0, and B4..0 output. For correct digital video output, this should be connected to /OVER.[1] As sold, this is connected to ground.
  • TST14..12: When DIGITAL VIDEO ENABLE is low, these may select some other kind of functionality for the other TST pins. These are connected to ground.
