The Open Source Scan Converter is a low-latency video digitizer and scan converter designed primarily for connecting retro video game consoles and home computers to modern displays. It converts analog RGB or component video signals into a digital format, and doubles (or triples) the scanlines of a single frame if necessary to generate a valid mode for digital TVs or monitors. 13 |
14 |OSSC requires an external DC power supply. A unit that outputs 5 volts DC with at least 1 Amp will work. The tip must be 2.1 x 5.5mm and centre positive. 33 |
If desired, a USB to Barrel Jack adapter can be used. This will function correctly as long as the USB port or charger used in conjunction with OSSC outputs at least 1 amp of current. Such adapters can often be found on Amazon or other popular retailers. 34 |
Do not use a power supply rated for AC output, or a power supply rated higher than 5 volts DC, doing so can damage the OSSC. 35 |
Using a supply that provides less than one amp of current may cause the OSSC to reset, especially when outputting at higher resolutions. You can however, safely use a PSU rated at least one amp or higher. 36 |
37 |This input supports video in RGBS, RGsB (sync on green) and YPbPr formats. Composite video, luma or composite sync can be used as a sync source in RGBS mode. External sync splitters or boosters are generally not required or recommended as there is a built-in sync filter & separator in the ADC frontend. The sync input has 75 ohm termination, so a TTL-level sync signal should not be directly connected to the OSSC in order to avoid unnecessarily stressing the source console and/or OSSC. A 470 ohm series resistor on the console side of the cable is generally a good solution when using cables which are wired for the TTL-level sync output of a console. The video inputs also have standard 75 ohm termination, so arcade boards may need extra resistors on the cable when connected directly without using a Supergun. 40 |
41 |The AV2 input is a set of three RCA connectors which supports both component video (YPbPr) and RGB (RGsB format). 43 |
44 |The AV3 input is a VGA/HD-15 connector which supports video in RGBHV, RGBS (pin 13), RGsB and YPbPr formats. RGBHV and RGBS modes require clean TTL-level sync signals and cannot extract sync from composite video or luma. AV3 is best suited for high-quality input sources as video LPF functionality is limited (the AV1 and AV2 inputs are routed through a dedicated LPF chip). Therefore, it is generally recommended to connect older consoles and arcade boards to these other inputs. 46 |
47 |HDMI connector which is used to transmit video data in 24bit RGB format. Currents up to 200mA can be safely supplied via DDC 5V power pin to external devices such as active cables. 50 |
51 |Analog audio from SCART input is bypassed to a 3.5mm stereo output jack next to video output connector. The jack alternatively functions as AV2 audio input, selectable via a miniature switch. 53 |
54 |The OSSC is available with a pre-programmed infrared remote. This is optional, and can be replaced with a suitable programmable/learning remote if desired). 58 |
