I incorporated the XGS 16-Bit PIC into a "console' by building a case, power supply, and breadboards for add-ons. Work was started Monday, the 26th. I drew out the design plans, purchased parts, and created it. I have included developmental pictures so you can see my work. I didn't take any pics 'in dev' sadly D: But there are some in the current stage, Beta. I still have to add some more goodies and stuff but right now its pretty much done.
"Developed to be a very competitive entry/mid range development kit for Microchip's new 16-Bit PIC24 processor with 256K FLASH, 16K SRAM, and running at over 40 MIPs. The kit was designed with the philosophy that you don't want to waste time trying to figure things out. This kit takes you step by step, saving you time, so you can learn quickly and have fun doing it!" - Nurve Networks LCC
- Microchip 16-Bit PIC24 processor with 256K FLASH / 16K SRAM running at over 40 MIPS!
- 500mA max power 3.3/5V dual supplies.
- VGA output with 2x2x2 RGB.
- NTSC/PAL with color generation helper hardware (PAL support limited).
- Micro SD card interface.
- Serial port for control and PC interfacing.
- ISP and JTAG programming ports.
- PS/2 keyboard/mouse port.
- Expansion port header exporting numerous I/O, power, and signal lines for experimentation and mechatronic exploration.
- Exported SPI and I2C buses.
- Two game controller ports (Nintendo DB9 compatible).
Specs:
Old wood finish, making it retro
Battery and Mains power supply built in, so its portable
completely contained, controllers/cables had their own compartments inside the unit itself
2 Breadboards for the later additions and prototyping
1 XGS controller or 2 NES gamepads can fit inside the cont- compartment
Audio/Video cables have a separate compartment, and so does the AC power cord
dual box fans (intake outtake) to prevent overheating
regulated 12VDC and 5VDC, both at 2.5 Amps
Indicator LED's for Power, supply voltages, and XGS power
all the features of an XGS 16-bit PIC
