Converts the active-high button outputs and moves some pins around, allowing an Atari 7800 Proline stick or gamepad to work as a Sega Master System controller. This is particularly useful if you want to use it with a USB adapter such as the Daemonbite Sega adapter.
BOM: R1,R2: 1.8K R3,R4: 270 Q1,Q2: 2n4401 NPN transistor
The connectors are typical solder cup DE9 male / female and are attached by straddling the pins on either side of the board. This adapter is intended to fit perfectly inside a DE9 gender changer hood.
