GameCube Component Cable Help (Ashen or Tchay)?

[zeldaxpro]

Hey guys I was wondering if anyone can help me. As far as I know Ashen and Tchay are the only ones with GCPs with Component Cables in them, so I am hoping one of you guys can help me. I plan on rewiring my gc component cable chip to the corresponding pins, but I remember reading somewhere that not all the pins are needed for the chip to work properly. Pics:

I do not take credit for these

^ as you can see from Ashen's worklog, not all 22 have to be wired up for the chip to work. Here are the pinout to the chip:

^^ If someone can tell me which connector pins (from second pic) that I do not need to wire up I would gladly appreciate it. I know Tchay or Ashen probably know so again if you guys can help me out I would greatly appreciate it. Thanks.

you posted the answer to your own question...


Re-examine the pics you posted, pics 3 & 4
See the pin names on the connector 1 - 23
See the pin names on the MX chip 1 - 12


Do any of those names match?

I did lol? I know that all the grounds match, but diagrams dont really say which ones u really dont need to wire up. I have already wired up my component chip fine by corresponding the pins, I just want to know if there are any pins that wouldnt affect the chip if I didnt wire them up. Pics 1 and 2 show that you dont need all 22 pins hooked up to work. I just want to know which pins you Do Not Need.

correction to the above post...22, not 23

take a look at this....
its a more detailed circuit pinout i put together, along with some other data...
like i said, 1 - 12 chip side is all you need to match up from the connector side 1 - 22
13 - 24 on the chip is the video output and related circuitry...
