Electronic Component Replacement Lists:

For many folks, the most difficult part of any restoration project is repairing the circuit boards. Aside from troubleshooting the circuitry, the next challenge is purchasing the required components. The hardest part of doing that is simply figuring out the part numbers. The art of determining exactly what to buy and where to buy it is called sourcing. Over the years, I have been relatively proficient at this task. My lists are going to be limited to those games in my collection that I've repaired and/or restored.

Galaga

Repairing this board involved getting some custom chips from Mike's Arcade and some old memory chips from Arcadechips.

I also had to replace the 50 conductor ribbon cable and the PCB headers and I got those from Digikey as follows (Aug.31, 2006, Stock Prices last updated Sept. 16, 2007):

Space Duel, Black Widow, Gravitar

My work with these games mostly involved rebuilding the WG 6100 color vector monitors. While I could have sourced 99% of the parts from Digikey, I decided to go with the deluxe 6100 kits from Bob Roberts. I also installed the very popular LV2000 board in one of them, purchased from Arcadeshop.

Update June 15, 2009:

WG6100 Color Vector Monitor Rebuild Kit:

Due to popular demand, here is a table of WG6100 parts available from Digikey. I have used the Digikey components listed below in my 6100 rebuilds with great success.

The list includes the most common primary parts used to rebuild the 6100 monitor. Be aware that this is not a complete bill of materials. These are only the most common components that need to be replaced and these are the parts provided by the majority of kit suppliers.

Also shown are the parts listed by other kit suppliers as so-called "additional parts" that can optionally be used if you want to be very thorough. They are marked by a '+'. Some suppliers provide a disclaimer citing that these parts cannot guarantee extended or even ideal performance due to a lack of official authorization from the monitor manufacturer. I always install them and my monitors always work great. My first units rebuilt in mid-2005 are still running strong and have never had a problem.

WG 6100 Monitor Extension Cable Kit:

If you are capable of crimping Molex terminals onto your own wire, then you can easily make a very handy extension cable for your 6100 color vector monitor. A few people sell the complete cable assembly for about $40 but the total cost of parts (including good quality 18ga wire) for a two foot long cable is only about $11. When assembling your cable, note that you may omit position 9 terminals and wire. All other positions are wired 1 to 1. Don't forget that when you hold up both ends and look at them head on, they mirror each other. Make sure that each wire mates with itself if you plug the two ends together.

The tools and wire that I listed are quite expensive but I'm sure you could find cheaper generic wire and a crimp tools at your local hardware store. Personally, I bought the universal crimp tool and extraction tool listed below because they work on all similarly sized Molex connectors. With respect to the arcade hobby, I use them a lot so it was a good investment regardless. If you only need to make one 6100 harness, just by the required parts listed in the first table, borrow your buddy's crimper and invest an hour of your time and you'll save $25 over buying one complete. Just don't cross any wires!!!

Transistor Substitutes :

I have recently been sourcing components for 6100 (and other vector) monitor rebuilds and I've collected some useful intel. I know that it can be a royal pita to source the big 2N3716 (NPN) and 2N3792 (PNP) transistors. They are not impossible to find (i.e. Bob Roberts, Newark, etc.) but sometimes they can be hard to find in stock and for reasonable prices. Worst case, they come from the USA by mule or the UK by sea-monkey and you have to wait for a few weeks or longer to get them.

I have seen posts in the past asking if there were any subs available... well, there are plenty, so here you go.

All of the substitutes that I have listed below should work, but I have not tried them all . Until a specific part is tried and proven, use it at your own risk. I just went through all of their datasheets, all of which I found on the Digikey site. The parts with the parameter (ft = 2 MHz) are known to work okay. The original 2N3716/92 parts have ft = 4 MHz and so do most of the subs listed below.

Any part having similar parameters such as...

...will work as good replacement parts. All of the parts listed below meet these requirements.

If anyone tries any of the parts listed below and it fails and is known to be the root cause of failure, please email me and let me know. I will add such reports to the list or remove the part from the list.

2N6259 (NPN) for monitors:

The large 2N6259 (NPN) transistors for G08-003 monitor rebuilds can be difficult to find in stock, especially for reasonable prices. All of the "known" substitutes that I have listed below have been proven to work.

The most difficult parameter to match (with respect to 2N6259) is the secondary breakdown (Is/b). The more current that the device can carry at the highest voltage possible, the more reliable it will be. The 2N6259 was superior in this way to all of the suggested substitute devices having a rating of 2.5A @ 100V. The best choice substitute device listed below is MJ21196.

It is interesting to note that the MJ15003 (NPN) and the MJ15004 (PNP) devices were used in the factory original G08-001, the first version of the monitor, and they were known to fail relatively frequently. Most, if not all, of the substitutes listed below have a superior secondary breakdown value to these.

I have seen in at least one document (the very well presented and useful Mongo’s Simple Sega G80 Vector Mods) the part number mis-typed as 2N6529. Such a device does exist as small low power UHF microwave transistor. Obviously, it is not the device that we are concerned with.

Note: These will probably work okay. They are not as reliable as the original 2N6259 part but they have better secondary breakdown values than the MJ150xx parts listed above that are known to work.
