How to Start with the gbaHD Shield

kinoX51 edited this page Mar 28, 2022 · 4 revisions

To start this project you'll need some things:

  • a Spartan Edge Accelerator Board
  • a working spare OGBA / GBA SP Mainboard
  • a gbaHD-Shield (either as a assambled unit or you build it for yourself.
  • the flex cables for hooking up the OGBA / GBA-SP to the Shield
  • an Arduino Nano e.g. to update / program the gbaHD-Shields firmware
  • as an alternative to the Arduino Nano a USBASP works also fine to update / program the gbaHD-Shields firmware
  • a good stable PowerSupply providing 5v - 1A should work but more Amps are always better :)

Spartan Edge Accelerator Board

The Spartan Edge Accelerator Board is the heart of this whole project. zwenergy did an amazing job with this project and it's getting better every day.

Where to get the Spartan Board? -> The best way to get the board is directly from Seeedstudio.com

Working OGBA / GBA SP Mainboard

Where to get it? -> eBay, flea market, forgotten in a closet e.g.
