CRG | Amiga Sick Hundred - Part 3 - Composite Fix and Building a Chip RAM expansion @CRG | Uploaded February 2023 | Updated October 2024, 5 hours ago.
Its time to finish off the Amiga 600, we need to sort out the lack of composite video and I’ve got a 1MB chip ram expansion to build.
Massive thanks to Mark Brown (Supaduper) for sending us the parts needed for the composite mod along with a spare keyboard membrane.
The new video encoder is a Sony device, part number CXA2075M. To complete the mod you need a 2.61k ohm metal film 1% resistor between pins 12 and 17.
This composite mod can also be applied to the A1200 using the same parts and methods. YouTube channel @BranchusCreations has an excellent video on it here - youtube.com/watch?v=e2QI1_YjQSo
