Overview
PS2-PSU is an open-source printed circuit board by LegendOfRock69, from the LegendOfRock69/PS2-PSU repository on GitHub. It is a 2-layer board of 61 × 24.9 mm with 47 parts on 16 nets, routed with 36 tracks and 81 vias.
It is built around the USB4125-GF-A. Its parts include 19 capacitors, 8 resistors, 4 ICs, 3 inductors and 1 connector. It belongs with the power boards of this library.

README.mdPS2-PSU
The PS2-PSU is a custom regulator solution meant for powering Playstation 2 Slims that have had an Advanced Trim performed to them or untrimmed consoles with the existing power regulatory components removed.
Disclaimer
This is NOT a "drop-in" power regulator solution for portable PS2's. This board is meant to only be powered externally via USB-C and should not be powered by a battery. It is meant to power PS2's that have been trimmed and require the Advanced Trim voltage relocations; or PS2's that have had their existing power regulating components removed. This board has only been tested with a SCPH-79001 motherboard so far but should work with any SCPH-7900X PS2 Slim; or any Playstation 2 Slim that requires the necessary voltages. Revision 2 is planned to be a full "drop-in" solution to use for portables in conjunction with a separate battery protection PCB and will be released soon.
This board has only been tested with the Adafuit 5803 5V 4A output wall adapter outlined in the BOM but any USB-C charger should work as long as it can output at least 3A or more. It is also strongly recommended to only use 5V to power this board as the main TPS62A06DRLR regulators have a maximum input voltage rating of 5.5v and anything higher can and will have the potential to damage the components.
Features
- Board Dimentions: 61mm x 25mm
- Powered via USB-C
- Uses more standard voltages and 1 less regulator as opposed to the voltages recommended in the PS2 Trimming Guide

Order & Assembly
- The gerber files can be uploaded to any PCB manufacturer of your choice for ordering
- While it is recommended to order this board with an ENIG surface finish, a HASL(with lead) finish will work as well
- It is strongly recommended to order a stencil for assembly and it is not recommended to hand solder the components
- There are 3 BOM file types included: a .xlsx BOM, a .pdf BOM and an iBOM.html
- The Bill of Materials for this board were ordered from Mouser however components can be ordered from the supplier of your choice so long as they are stocked. links to a supplier were left out in the BOM for users who may prefer a different supplier
- As per the disclaimer, the Adafruit 5803 outlined in the BOM is recommended for not only its voltage and amperage output, but it also has an external switch to utilize as the board will be powered once plugged in if not using an external switch
Installation
Whereas the PS2-PSU uses more standard voltages than the those outlined in the Definitive PS2 Trimming Guide, the connections are as follows:
- 1V on the PSU is required to be connected to the PS2's 1.25V area
- 1V8 on the PSU is required to be connected to BOTH the PS2's 1.75V and 2.5V areas
- 3V3 on the PSU is required to be connected to the PS2's 3.5V area
- 5V on the PSU is required to be connected to the PS2's 5V area
Please note that all volatge relocations MUST be connected together on a trimmed PS2 as trimming cuts away the internal voltage layers that connects them together
SCPH-79001 and alike (please note that the 2 8-pin IC's circled in red must be removed if they are present)
SCPH-79003 and alike
When using this PSU or any custom regulator solution to externally power a PS2, 3.5V (or 3V3) must be reconnected to this area on the 8-pin ic. If the 8-pin ic is not present, 3.5v (or 3V3) must be connected to the small capacitor above it
5V must be connected to the orange area in this photo as it powers both the DAC and the Ethernet IC and is a requirement for the PS2 to boot

Where can I download the PS2-PSU KiCad files?
From the LegendOfRock69/PS2-PSU repository on GitHub, at the commit this page was made from: the board is Kicad/PS2 PSU.kicad_pcb and its schematic Kicad/PS2 PSU.kicad_sch. PCBKit opens the board in the browser, with nothing to install.
Can I use the PS2-PSU design in my own project?
Its repository states no licence, so its author keeps all rights: ask LegendOfRock69 before reusing the design.
