Need video output cable (Not HDMI)

I have a pico projector which does not have a HDMI input only a 3.5mm av input. Is there a cable adapter that could work from the Samsung Note 2? I see them with HDMI, which I don't need.
 
The 3.5mm AV cables use an older analog video signal format. HDMI is completely digital. As you may have already noticed this is a problem, because no device outputs this analog signal, only HDMI.

So, if you want to use this projector, you're going to have to convert the only output you get (HDMI) to the older analog signal. The converters are active devices, which means that they're expensive and probably require their own power supplies.

I highly doubt there is an all in one MHL to composite video converter.
 
Thanks. I thought that might be the issue. The pico project is so great, I guess I'll check out the ones with an HDMI Output.
