    NOTES:

    • This regulator only supports most IPS LCD kits and does not provide the voltages required for the original (OEM) and FunnyPlaying LCD kits. In order to use this regulator with original (OEM) or FunnyPlaying kits, you will need to leave on the original power board/regulator. Then for GBC you will need to cut pin 7 on the original power regulator. For GBP, you will need to cut pin 6 on the original power regulator.
    • For GBP: If you are using an aftermarket LCD kit (such as one by Hispeedido and FunnyPlaying), or original LCD kit, in order to use the contrast wheel brightness function, you will just leave the old regulator fully in place and solder the new regulator over top as in the method above. If your regulator is completely non-functional, you may not then have use of the contrast wheel with this regulator.

    Lily R. ★★★★★

    Finally got stable power to my IPS-modded GBC after swapping out the original regulator—this 5V board delivers a clean 1A without any screen flicker. Soldering was straightforward and the voltage output is dead steady on my multimeter.

    Madison ★★★★★

    Installed this in my GBC for an IPS screen and the battery life actually seems better than stock. No more flickering on bright scenes like I had with the old regulator.

    Chloe I. ★★★★★

    The 5V output is rock solid even when my IPS screen is at full brightness and the audio is cranked, no flicker or hiccups during long sessions. Installation was straightforward, just swapped the old board and everything booted right up. Definitely worth the upgrade for anyone running heavy mods.
