This is a minimal system of STM32G473CxT6 MCU — all 48 pins, plus +5V power input, are exposed on a compact breadboard-compatible footprint (800 x 2500 mils). Although it looks like a glorified QFP-to-DIP adapter board, it actually has a few features that greatly improve Quality of Life while not adding too much to cost:

• Micro-USB connector
  • VBUS can be used to power the board
  • Data lines are connected to MCU
• Flexible power
  • Feed either VBUS or external 5V to on-board 3.3V LDO
  • TVS + reverse-polarity protection on +5V
  • Alternatively use external 3.3V and forget about 5V
• Cortex Debug Connector (2x5 keyed shrouded 1.27mm pitch)
• HSE (high-speed external oscillator)
  • Footprint for 4-pad SMD crystal + load capacitors
  • Alternatively free up the pins for GPIO
• On-board reset button
• BOOT0 handling
  • 47k pull-down + 1k pull-up (through jumper)
  • Since BOOT0 is multiplexed with PB8 on this package, this setup avoids accidentally back-driving external circuitry.
• Power LED (+3.3V) and “Blinky” LED (PC13)
• Silkscreen on both side clearly indicating pinout
• Headers can be soldered on both sides, although back-side male headers are preferred for breadboard compatibility

FBA 1.7

Introducing a DIY tool to analyze NPN transistors. This device allows you to put in 3 resistors of your choice and measure the voltage drop across each of them (giving you an indirect measure of the current running through them). This allows you to experiment with current gain and saturation of transistors to understand how they are used in analog and digital circuits.

A DIY SR-Latch PCB. The middle breakout holes are for a Quad Nand Gate with the empty circle marking pin 1. Use this PCB to explore digital logic, memory, and how we overwrite memory.

DIP8 https://github.com/knicklux/Attiny_Programmer Short form

USFSMAX module for soldering to a main board.

Helper board for putting buttons and USB inside graflex-style clamp.

Allows an MLX90640 IR camera to be connected to a raspberry pi. Note that this adapter is made so the camera sticks out i.e. doesn’t go over the pi board like a hat would.

Adapts a DA-15 to the standard Atari SIO Jack, which is an option on the SDrive-NUXX, 1088XEL/XLD, and standard on the 576NUC+.

UNTESTED - Under development

This is an adaptation of TransistorTester to use the Arduino Pro Mini. Inspired and heavily influenced by Stefan Wagner’s implementation. This is the reason the resistor numbering starts at R3, for instance.

This version (1.4) fixes two numbering / pin assignment errors from the previous version. This also increases the size of the vias in the display connector and several other minor tweaks.
