    Worklog Chunchunmaru - A PS2 Portable

    You can either scratch the soldermask, which exposes the copper of the upper layer and solder to that or to any components pin that is connected to that trace. I like scratching the mask if possible. it allows you to create a solder point of any desired size & reduces the risk of shoring...

    Worklog Project: Cyberdeck

    Yesterday i reworked the top plate and added a holder for the RetroPSU [which has sadly no screw holes]. the Holder in the middle basically a second layer for components to the case, which came in quite handy. Finally i could put everything together today, for the first time! I went up and...

Also a few more memes arrived, so i can stuff every last inch of this thing full of cool features. I'm really happy how everything is turning out...

    Worklog Project: Cyberdeck

    So after buying another [DSI] display & finding out it's blob driver only supports the RPi4, i bought a new SBC. With the NanoPC-T4 & the matching eDP display everything should work fine. First tests confirm that my display is working & i was able to power the nanopc from 5V [or 5.5V]. BIG-up to...

    Currently the project hangs on the eDP display config.. I thought because it's called "display port" it would be plug-n-play like HDMI... i was so wrong.. you need fitting kernel drivers and a custom device-tree configuration. Those ".dts" files describe the hardware on a pretty low kernel...

    Alright, so i had to redo the whole design.. because of physics. But i think i now found a nice way to make everything work. I also figured out which batteries to use, i'm going to go with 2x21700 giving me 10Ah which should be plenty in normal use. Here's the current state of the case...

    Call for Backgrounds!

    With the recent feature merged into RVLoader, you can now add backgrounds to RVLoader & apply them using the Settings menu. My idea was to collect a few backgrounds that we could ship as an "community" extension to RVLoader. So now it's your turn! What we need are background images as PNG in...

    2021 Contest Entry: GCiiPocket v2-Plus-Pro-Slim

    Lot's of sanding today.. i decided to print the case with some good old "summer contest carbonfil". Which makes it look pretty .. generic?! but it will make it's memes shine i think. but judge yourself: Internalwise i wired up some stuff. some things still need testing/fixing but it's going...

    Question Wii to microcontroller interface

    I'll release some code & maybe write a little bit about wii and i2c after the contest. I use I2C to communicate with my "NPC" [Atmel MCU] controller & make it do stuff. it's crazy how simple it is actually

    2021 Contest Entry: GCiiPocket v2-Plus-Pro-Slim

    I'm on vacation, so it's time to finish this up i guess.. :D Printed the current case since idk what still was wrong with it, just some minor adjustments as it seems. (You know it's a close fit, when removing the paper isolation from your batteries is a working fix). Overall it's the same...
