MiSTer_tty2epaper is an hardware and software module for the MiSTer FPGA with MiSTer Multisystem
This module displays the logo of current the running core on a 2.13"(104x212) 3 Color ePaper display. If the current core logo isn't available the MiSTer logo is displayed.
Hardware
- Waveshare 2.13"(104x212) 3 Color(BWR) ePaper display HAT.
- Adafruit QT Py - SAMD21 Dev Board or Seeduino XIAO M0
- MiSTer_tty2epaper PCB
- 40pin header
- Short USB-C male to USB-A male cable
- 3D printed part
Software
- Arduino
- GxEPD2 library
- Proper board support package for your chossen MCU
Linux/MiSTer service code from the MiSTer_tty2oled project with minor modifications.
- MiSTer Setup
Copy tty2epaper folder to root of your MiSTer_Data partition.
Add the following to the bottom of MiSTer_Data/linux/user-startup.sh
/media/fat/tty2epaper/S60tty2epaper start
- Hardware Setup
Flash the Arduino sketch to the board using Arduino IDE
- Assemble
Solder the 40pin header and MCU to the PCB. The longer pins of the 40pin connector should be inserted into the side of the PCB labeled "Waveshare Hat".
The MCU should be soldered onto the opposite side of the PCB.
Connect the ePaper Hat to the PCB you just assembled.
Slide the module into the 3D printer case and plug in the USB-C side of the cable into the MCU.
Plug in USB cable and install MiSTer_tty2epaper module into MiSTer Multisystem case.
