Consoles Unleashed Sony PlayStation SIO-XS is a Quick Solder Switchboard for Cybdyn Systems PSIO PlayStation flash cartridge based on Voultar’s SIO-X.

It simplifies the install of a PSIO Switchboard by reducing the wires needed and making the entire install much cleaner.

SIO-X is a great design, but for my own uses I prefer a separate modchip and switchboard. For this reason I decided to design the SIO-XS.

SIO-XS simplifies Voultar’s design by omitting the modchip and changing the layout a little. SIO-XS was designed from the ground up but is based entirely on Voultar’s work on SIO-X. So all credit to Voultar and his original design.

Voultar’s SIO-X license is included with this download.

Designed September 2021.

A simple breakout PCB for a 9-Pin Mini DIN. There is a jumper to link the left and right audio channels and a jumper to send the left channel or both to the mono audio output pin.

Designed July 2022.

Connections

An adapter to simplify and neaten up the wiring to the AV connector for use with some of the larger RGB boards from Tim Worthington and Borti4938.

A jumper is provided which allows the Composite Sync signal to be sent to the Luma output pin, the Composite Sync output pin, or both to support different SCART cables.

0.8mm, 1mm, 1.2mm should all be fine for board thickness.

Designed July 2021.
