This tiny, power-packed module takes in the native Component video and analog audio output from the Playstation 2 and Playstation 3 and outputs a crisp HDMI™ video stream. This module utilizes a fully custom PCB with a higher quality, next generation IC compared to what is typically used on the widely available, low quality analog-to-digital modules that are readily available online. The low quality construction of those other modules often leads to video and audio with interference that inhibits enjoyable gameplay. If you are not happy with those modules, then you will absolutely be happy with these.
You need to set the video output mode to "Component Video Out" with "Y Cb/Pb Cr/Pr" selected:
These modules do not provide any video scaling, so the output resolution is equal to the input resolution received. Some TVs/displays do not accept 240p and 480i resolutions from an HDMI™ input.
These modules are
not compatible with the Playstation 1 but they are compatible with Playstation 1 games when played on the other consoles.
Some TVs/displays are not compatible with Playstation 1 games. Please read the "Resolution Switching" section on RetroRGB here:

Lag/Latency Information
The core technology at the heart of the ElectronPulse does not introduce any lag or latency in the output image. That means that the provided input analog video is quickly converted into the same resolution output video via HDMI™.
However, it is important to note that some TVs and displays are unable to properly process low resolution 480i HDMI™ video without introducing some noticeable lag on the output. If that occurs with your display, then it is recommended to utilize a high quality, low latency HDMI™ scaler on the output of the ElectronPulse to scale the 480i video to a higher resolution prior to being received by your display.
These scalers include the following (non-affiliate links) in order from most-to-least capable:
