From the project

Composite AV mod PCB for the Atari 2600 Junior.

This is a single board solution to mod Atari 2600 Junior consoles, which normally only use RF outputs, into outputting composite AV.

Analog RF isn't typically found on most modern TVs anymore, and even composite AV is fading out, but it is still fairly easy to hook up on most systems.

This mod in general isn't anything new, it has been for literal decades but usually it was done with free floating wires and components. This PCB aims to make installation a lot easier.
