Home made Picomite VGA SBC - vintage style BASIC computer board.
(Last 2 remaining )
This is a built & tested board with SD card function enabled and has some basic programs on the flash memory (drive A:\) to get you started - see pictures. These include blocks.bas at Tetris game, screen tests: colour bars, test card(buggy), font display & some of my own tinkering with screen fills. Reset switch is a 2 pin, not 4 pin as this allows for an external reset switch to be soldered in if the board is fitted into a case in the future. I would recommend a SD card be inserted as drive B: as it makes copying files from a PC much easier. Built from a new raspberry pi pico 2040, soldered onto a picoVga type 1 board with an SD card slot, PS/2 keyboard socket & a VGA socket (socket is slightly smaller than the edge of the board so I recommend screwing the vga cable into socket as shown). Some flux may remain on the underside of the board. Powers from a standard Micro usb cable (NOT INCLUDED) & you will need a PS/2 keyboard - not a USB keyboard. Great for learning basic as it runs MMBasic, a custom version of microsoft basic for some 8 bit nostalgia. All pico 2040 pins are on the 40 pin header allowing for expansion with additional circuits boards (Sound output, relay control, Real time clock, joystick input etc). Will be sent by Yodel, Evri or Royal Mail depending upon your location.
