What voltages does ST-V run off?

[JimmyDean]

Yup, I will be the first person in the world to consolize a ST-V. Pretty hard project for a 13 year old... Problem is, I don't know which voltages it runs off. I know that it's JAMMA standard and therefore runs off either +5v +12v or -5v or any combination of the three, but I'm praying on my knees that it doesn't require a -5v line as I would have to use an arcade psu, and therefore, my ST-V will be big and clunky and nobody would want to buy it. (now that was a long sentence!) Anyway, if someone could give me the voltages that it uses that would be great!

Just look at the edge connector...if it uses -5V there will be a trace coming off it.

Thanks, dude! Although I kind of feel stupid for not thinking of that.

STV isn't the best platform to consolize. It's VERY easy to pop the solder joints on those 2 CPUs on the back right hand corner.

If you're going to consolize it then mount it to a board or piece of plexi/Lexan.

I was thinking of putting it in a wood case.

Do you have any pics up of your current work in progress on the CMVS?

I'll post em' later. Right now, I need to go to bed. Anyway, sound is working, but I'm still waiting on my video encoder.
