  • GND pins (11,24,37,57) are internally connected to each other.
  • VCC/batt pins (10,25,38,56) are internally connected to each other.
  • All pins have internal protection diodes from GND and to VCC/batt except pins 4 and 5.
  • Pins 4 and 5 measure infinite resistance to all other pins.
  • Unknown input pins (3,7,8,9,12) are labeled per connections on NES-HKROM PCB.
