We’re excited about this new project from Piotr Esden-Tempski of 1BitSquared on Hackaday.io:
1Bitsy 1UP
1Bitsy 1UP is a retro inspired handheld game console, the design is based on the 1Bitsy STM32F415RGT6 ARM Cortex-M4F 168MHz 192kb RAM and 1MB Flash micro controller. 2.8″ TFT with capacitive touch, SDCard Reader and a few other components.
The display used is a TFT LCD with I2C CapTouch and ILI9341 driver. (should be compatible with the display sold by Adafruit on their breakouts as well as the buydisplay.com 2.8″ tft with CapTouch sensor)
The most basic design consists of:
- 1Bitsy STM32F415RGT6 (168MHz, 192kb RAM, 1MB Flash)
- 240×320 2.8″ TFT with capacitive touch and PWM backlight control
- D-Pad, ABXY, Start, Select buttons
- DAC audio out to headphones. (speakers optional)
- SDCard connected over SDIO interface
The hardware design files and firmware source code are available on GitHub:
