Celotine Posted March 8 Share Posted March 8 Controllers don't work so I went in to change the ICs for the controllers and found this? This is the 3rd colecovision I've worked on, never saw this before. Quote Link to comment https://forums.atariage.com/topic/362877-what-is-this/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
nick3092 Posted March 8 Share Posted March 8 Looks like a bunch of diodes to try and prevent the ICs from getting fried. Ruggers Customs makes a PCB with diodes on it you solder to the to the bottom of the controller port to do the same thing. https://console5.com/store/anti-static-d9-joystick-port-esd-set-pair-of-2-static-protection-add-on-pcb.html Quote Link to comment https://forums.atariage.com/topic/362877-what-is-this/#findComment-5425782 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Turns out I just needed to reflow. Works great now. 1 Quote Link to comment https://forums.atariage.com/topic/362877-what-is-this/#findComment-5425797 Share on other sites More sharing options...
