Delta SmartWave is a next-generation hardware solution designed for PlayStation PS1 enthusiasts seeking flawless regional compatibility and precision fully compliant with original console specifications.
When an NTSC game is played on a PAL console, or vice versa, the console runs with incorrect clock frequencies. This can result in black-and-white video over composite, masked issues when using RGB, or improper GPU timing that may reduce smoothness in certain games.
Delta SmartWave fixes the problem at its source.
Using intelligent detection, it automatically adjusts both the GPU clock and the video subcarrier frequency with extremely high precision, ensuring correct operation in 50Hz or 60Hz depending on the inserted game.
When combined with Delta PSNee, SmartWave allows PAL, JAP and USA games to run flawlessly on a single console, with correct colors, perfect synchronization and no need for multiple regional systems.
Unlike traditional DFO or MFO solutions, Delta SmartWave features an embedded microcontroller capable of automatically detecting the motherboard revision (PU-7, PU-8 early, PU-8 late, PU-18, etc.) and adapting its frequencies precisely to each hardware variant.
It also includes the most accurate frequency generator currently available, far superior to the approximate oscillators used in conventional DFO and MFO mods, ensuring exact compliance with original PAL and NTSC specifications.
Installation is clean and straightforward. Delta SmartWave is designed to be soldered directly onto the motherboard, with no additional wiring in most cases (a single wire is required only on some early revisions). No configuration, no programming and no unexpected behavior.
Delta SmartWave is currently the most advanced, precise and intelligent solution available to permanently fix regional frequency issues on the PlayStation PS1.
