was ever publicly released. The "schematics" used by the modding community are reverse-engineered diagrams created by hardware hackers.

The Jr. outputs from the factory.

Many Jr. units suffer from faint vertical lines, especially on S-Video.

If you search online, you’ll find dozens of schematics for the original 1991 SNES. But those are with the SNS-101. Here’s why:

Download a verified schematic, open it on a large monitor, and compare it to your physical SNS-101 board. Trace the video lines. Mark the RGB pins. And get ready to experience 16-bit gaming as it was always meant to be seen.

However, unlike the original SNES (SHVC-CPU-01 or GPM-01), the junior model uses a highly integrated, custom chipset (often labeled CPU-RGB, PPU-RGB, and S-CLK) on a smaller two-layer board.

⚠️ Avoid random "SNES Jr. schematic" images on Google – many are incorrect or for the original SNES.

Capacitors fail over 20+ years. The schematic lists every capacitor by reference designator (C1, C2, etc.) and value (47µF 10V, 100µF 6.3V, 0.1µF ceramic). Use the schematic to order a cap kit from Console5 and ensure you place each one in the correct polarity.
