where on the controller board are you supposed to solder the wires to when you are installing leds for the xyab buttons?

by **Blazinkaos** » Mon Nov 24, 2008 1:31 am

Well it there are several different points but here are pinouts that i used to power my leds.

(Not my pic its being used from a thread on acidmods.com)
Anything else just let me kno.

does anybody here recommend wiring all of them in parallel to the 12v with a high resistor? im worried that i can reduce the voltage but the current will bust the LEDs up. where do you guys solder yours?

Mmm yea that may work make sure u have the right resistor for them tho. Also there are several voltage points on the xbox mobo heres a link to site that shows the most used. http://www.360-hq.com/xbox-tutorials-63.html

hello, everybody. I m making a stick arcade and i wish to light some buttons.
So i would have reading this topic with a translator (i'm french) and i will wan't to know:
Where did i solder the resistor and the wedge light on a wire pad?
As of now, i m never seen some pics with a pcb pad ( resistor solder and wedge light) this will be more speak.
I have caculated too the wedge.
So i have bought 2 wedge light to 12V (1.2w) and i have found 15.Ohm. I hope that i m not mistake

.

If some body can help me, because in the french web site no body answer me. Thank u before.

How many are volts coming from the 360 controller and how many are coming from Rumble motor

Can i wire 6 leds to the rumble motor?

I'm doing LEDS soon, and I will be checking back to this guide!

by **Ghost In Black** » Sat Feb 07, 2009 6:56 pm

The rumble motors are 2v. Yes you can wire that many LEDs if you go in parallel and they're not too high of a voltage.

where do you attach the + and - for the LED string?

by **IgotHaterzzz** » Mon Feb 09, 2009 6:00 pm

When removing SMDs, how much solder do i need to put on each one to be able to remove it? Do i have to cover the whole LED up? Or just the ends?

by **Th3_Mad_Hatta** » Mon Feb 09, 2009 7:30 pm

You wanna use some solder and FLUX. Lot of Flux.

I use lots of flux and clean my tip alot. use alittle solder on each side.

by **IgotHaterzzz** » Mon Feb 09, 2009 8:27 pm

Where should I buy this FLUX? RadioShack?eBay?Other?

by **Th3_Mad_Hatta** » Mon Feb 09, 2009 8:29 pm

ebay runs kinda high just get a jar from radioshack its like $6.99 or so.

Thanks man for 2 reasons.
A) I would have ran off and did it with just solder and prolly f'd up the motherboard
B) Telling me tht eBay wasnt the way

by **Th3_Mad_Hatta** » Mon Feb 09, 2009 8:51 pm

np.

I had actually bought most of my modding gear off of ebay. the only thing i didnt buy from ebay was my resistors and my wire, and soldering iron,

NEVER buy LED's from radio shack, i just bought 100 red for $7 on ebay and bought 4 radio at radio shack for $5.50

so key advice.. only get resistors/solder/pcb board/ from radio shack almost everything else from ebay.
