DS Lite Pi Zero
Re: DS Lite Pi Zero
Got the motherboard and battery in! Here's some pictures, layer-by-layer of the assembly.

The space above the Pi Zero is all I have for the display board, so we'll see
Also, I measured the speakers to have an impedance of about 6 ohms each, anyone know what I should set the Gain to on the amp?

Thanks for showing interest!RMwashere wrote:*bump* How is this project coming along?
While I've been busy with school I have found some time recently to pick away at parts of it. I got the stereo audio working today, and it sounds great through the stock DS Lite speakers aside from the static that comes through EmulationStation is quite noticeable (using an 18dB gain on the amp).
I still have controls to hook up and test, and hopefully I can figure out the display driver board setup for it ( @kite ?)
I'd post more pictures but it's basically just me testing the audio and controls right now! I did get some new batteries in though so I'll post some pictures of the placement of them and what the final layout will look like. I've decided to abandon the stock battery idea. It was not holding as good of a charge as I thought.

Re: DS Lite Pi Zero - Mod Discussion
What screen is that/where can I get one? Currently working on this exact project!
Re: DS Lite Pi Zero
I'll try to get some time to work on it over the summer! It's definitely a do-able project, I just need the time to dedicate to it. The only issue will be routing the ribbon cable on the display through the hinge on the DS Lite, and it will probably have to be exposed on the outside.Davod wrote: ↑Fri Apr 28, 2017 8:52 amI was thinking the same thing and then I discovered this post I'm so happy someone else is doing it before I am let me know how it all works out I would be super stoked if you manage to fit decent/good quality dac in as well to be honest I'm excited to see the next follow up post I hope everything fits well
It's just one of those standard 3.5" screens you can get from Adafruit for a lot of money, or pull one from a backup camera on Amazon, as shown in this thread. Let me know how yours goes!AdamShepherdUK wrote: ↑Sat Apr 29, 2017 12:58 pmWhat screen is that/where can I get one? Currently working on this exact project!
Here's some pictures I forgot to upload. I gave up on using the original battery, as it did not hold a charge very well.

What else would I need to the screen in terms of connectors/control boards? This is my first build, so I'm sorta flying blind regarding the display.
