Commodore VIC 20 MOS 6560 / 6561 Audio Video Booster Adapter
This solution improves audio and video quality by reducing noisy signals.
It requires extensive modification of the motherboard.
PCB thickness 1.2mm, Size 56 x 22 mm
Modification list:
The MOS6560/6561 must be desoldered and socketed.
The following components must be removed from the motherboard:
- R8, R9, R10, R11, R12, R13, R27, R40, R41
- C9, C10, C11, C13, C17
- Q1, Q2
- FB7
C11 must be replaced with a new part number (see the BOM list).
P4 must be replaced with a DIN8 connector (see the BOM list).
Replacing FB10 by a 330ohm resistor cleans up most of the jail bars in the chrominance signal.
Replacing C8 with a 2.2uF ceramic (or a 10uF electrolytic POSCAP, this component is polarized) cleans up the 5V supply considerably. Jail bars in the luminance signal are noticeably reduced.
Connection scheme:
Connect 6560/6561 adapter pin 2 (CHROMA) with a wire to DIN8 pin 6.
Connect 6560/6561 adapter pin 3 (LUMA) with a wire to DIN8 pin 1.
Connect the 6560/6561 CVBS header connector (COMPOSITE) with a wire to DIN8 pin 4.
Connect 6560/6561 adapter pin 19 (AUDIO OUT) with a wire to C11 (positive terminal) and then DIN8 pin 3.
AUDIO IN (DIN8 pin 5) requires a 100K ohm pull-down resistor to ground (DIN8 pin 2).
DIN8 pin 7 is not connected (floating).
DIN8 pin 8 connects to 5V.
DIN8 pin 2 connects to GND.
DIN8 pins 4 and 5 must be separated cutting the trace.
