Most of the information was based on the top and bottom layers of a dechipped 360
motherboard and decapped chips, I will update the information once I gain full knowledge
of the inner layers of the motherboard.
For reference, I have also included some information I have gathered from images of
Development Hardware and XDK hardware found on the net.
Please double-check myinformation, I am human and I do make mistakes. I have also
attempted to give credit where credit was due. If you find any errors or omissions, please
let me know so that I can correct it on future versions.
Like most, I am doing this as a hobby in my spare time, so I will do my best to keep the
information up to date but I can not make any guarantees.
I am currently looking for asupplier/manufacturer for the following components;

Controller Headset Port
Both the Male and Female
Connector.
Memory Card Port
Male Connector

RF Module Port
Male Connector

My current employment position will be changing in the near future, so I will be open for new
opportunities. I am a Canadian citizen living inWaterloo, ON, Canada with a background in
Electronics Engineering and Management. Feel free to contact me for more details.
