The PSP's headphone remote (HPRM) port contains a connection to UART4 in order to implement rewind, fast forward, and play / pause. This connector is often repurposed for debugging.

Below are the HPRM pinouts for various PSP models along with instructions on how to build your own HPRM to serial adapter.

PSP-1000

This was originally documented by Marcus Comstedt More information on the HPRM serial protocol can be found on his page.

The PSP-1000's HPRM port operates at 2.5v

Pin Signal Notes
1 Mic input microphone signal, decouple with a capacitor to audio ground when using (sleeve of 3.5mm connector)
2 GND Digital ground
3 UART4 TXD PSP UART4 transmit
4 nWakeup Ground this pin to wake PSP from standby
5 VCC_2v5 2.5v supply
6 UART4 RXD PSP UART4 receive

PSP-2000 & PSP-3000

PSP-2000 and PSP-3000's HPRM port is expanded to also carry video out signals.
