That's implying you can use any PCM2704, right?wermy wrote:USB sound card (this one specifically because of its size and the fact that it puts out enough juice to not need a separate amp to drive a tiny speaker: http://www.ebay.com/itm/112304879364 -- again you may be able to find a cheaper seller)

Re: mintyPi 2.0 News & Updates
Does anyone have a link on where to get the buttons? I am new and don't know which ones I am supposed to use. Thanks.
Edit: Do I use the silicone mold looking things? Or the hard pads and buttons? Or both?

Re: mintyPi 2.0 News & Updates
Look on ebay for Nintendo DS lite buttons and silicone membranes. Here are a few I just found. Search around you can find more colors and different prices. All you need is the start/select, directions, and ABXY buttons with the membranes. You won't need shoulder buttons.

Re: mintyPi 2.0 News & Updates
Another way you can go about finding more colors is searching for "DS Lite Shell". It'll probably cost you a dollar or two more since you're buying the whole case, but they are more readily available and in more colors. Some of them have the membranes included as well.rodocop wrote: ↑Mon Apr 24, 2017 8:02 pmLook on ebay for Nintendo DS lite buttons and silicone membranes. Here are a few I just found.

Ok thanks! I was just wondering if it needed that silicone mold or not. So thanks for answering that.wermy wrote: ↑Mon Apr 24, 2017 8:14 pmAnother way you can go about finding more colors is searching for "DS Lite Shell".

Hard to tell. The first image looks like the right one, the second one is not (different resolution and different number of pins). The title says it's the correct resolution, so it's likely the right one. That is a crazy price, though - mine were half that price with free shipping.Kevin wrote: ↑Mon Apr 24, 2017 8:44 pmIs this the same screen? Quantities of 1

Re: mintyPi 2.0 News & Updates
Start and Select are tactile button so no need for the membranes for those.
Wermy and I are looking into alternatives as I have spoken to you about it over PM, but it might be a cheaper and better alternative than what is out there but this again will draw things out a couple of weeks with screens being ordered and tested and new boards being designed.
