<h2> <span class="mw-headline" id="Introduction"> Introduction </span></h2>
<p>The <b>O</b>pen <b>S</b>ource <b>S</b>can <b>C</b>onverter 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.
</p>
<h3> <span class="mw-headline" id="Features"> Features </span></h3>
<ul><li> Detection and digitization of various analog SDTV/EDTV/HDTV/PC modes
</li><li> Line double support for 240p, 480i, 288p, 576i, 384p, 480p, 576p
</li><li> Line3x/4x/5x support for 240p/288p with different sampling modes
</li><li> Very low latency (less than 2 input scanlines)
</li><li> Fast "deinterlace" for 480i/576i and 960i/1080i
</li><li> Fast recover from input video mode change (e.g. 240p&lt;-&gt;480i)
</li><li> All video processing done in RGB domain - no conversion to YCbCr
</li><li> Video and sync LPF for less-than optimal input signals
</li><li> Multiple inputs supporting various formats (see below)
</li><li> Full-range 24-bit RGB output through DVI/HDMI
</li><li> Emulated scanlines with configurable strength and position
</li><li> Configurable mask for overscan area
</li><li> Selectable sampling configuration for 480p input: DTV-480p or VGA 640x480
</li><li> Selectable CSC configuration for YPbPr source: Rec. 601 or Rec. 709
</li></ul>
</li></ul>
<h2> <span class="mw-headline" id="Power"> Power </span></h2>
<p>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. 
</p><p>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 <a rel="nofollow" class="external text" href="https://www.amazon.co.uk/Barrel-Jack-Adapter-USB-5-5mm/dp/B00LX8MULA">Amazon</a> or other popular retailers.
</p><p>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. 
</p><p>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.

<h2> <span class="mw-headline" id="AV_inputs"> AV inputs </span></h2>
<h3> <span class="mw-headline" id="AV1_.28RGB-SCART.29"> AV1 (RGB-SCART) </span></h3>
<p>This input supports video in <b>RGBS</b>, <b>RGsB</b> (sync on green) and <b>YPbPr</b> 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 &amp; 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.
</p>
<h3> <span class="mw-headline" id="AV2_.28Component.29"> AV2 (Component) </span></h3>
<p>The AV2 input is a set of three RCA connectors which supports both component video (<b>YPbPr</b>) and RGB (<b>RGsB</b> format).
</p>
<h3> <span class="mw-headline" id="AV3_.28VGA.29"> AV3 (VGA) </span></h3>
<p>The AV3 input is a VGA/HD-15 connector which supports video in <b>RGBHV</b>, <b>RGBS</b> (pin 13), <b>RGsB</b> and <b>YPbPr</b> 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.

<h3> <span class="mw-headline" id="HDMI_.28DIY_boards.2C_v1.6_pre-assembled_boards.29"> HDMI </span></h3>
<p>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.
</p>
<h3> <span class="mw-headline" id="AV1_audio"> AV1 audio </span></h3>
<p>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.
