My main computer rig went down on me last night. So it has been a project getting on the net. I am posting this off an old win 3.1 / 95 rig.

Anyway here is a front and back snap of a Pac Jr. What do you think Riptor?

I just got a Jr board. Seems they made two boards. One is a DC power board the other is a Pacman/Ms Pac AC power board.

I cant remember where I found this.. mikearcade.com maybe

My board is a DC board (said board was for Super pacman conversion)

I posted this question today on here
 
Cool I just read that thread. So do you have a picture of yours? I am not sure which one I have. I did a search but it wasn't very informative in Ie5 on win 95. Slow as hell would be one word that comes to mind.

Can you tell which board I have?

I think you have the AC version that is for a normal Pac/Ms. Pac cabinet. The one pictured has the large caps, diodes, and other components to convert the AC off the power supply to DC for the board. The DC board looks bare in that corner since you don't need the AC to DC conversion components.

Edit: Here is a link to the conversion docs. http://arcarc.xmission.com/PDF_Arca...n_Field_Conversion_Kits_(0A29-00300-0001).pdf

It indicates that the Pac/Ms.Pac conversion board to a Pac Jr was A084-91694-BA29.

That is the AC version and is plug n play in a pac/mspac cab. The DC version of the board is missing alot of the components on the top left of the board. The most obvious would be the large heatsink.
DC boards were used in the dedicated machines and super pac conversions.

FYI: dedicated JR and super pac uses midway "medium" linear power supply.
