Ok so I found the info I needed and also had enough space to put the audio amp in. so this will use PWM Audio which will go to the pot then back to this board where audio is amplified then go to the headphones & Speaker.

I haven't done any of the silk screen so bear with me.

Following, less parts that have to be hot glued into place is always nice!

Arduino pro micro are way cheaper than Teensy, so I used them.
Demo here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KqMsXyjs0Yo
In order to do the same, download this library and open the Gamepad.cpp in Notepad++, then remove every "sendUpdate();" lines (Except the function sendUpdate) then create a new sketch with this code, and upload it. Arduino pro micro needs to be set as an Arduino Leonardo in order to be able to put the code on the chip.
Hi, You said to download the library but I don't see any download links.

It looks awesome !
Do you plan to use a PAM8403 for amp ?

Yes that is the amp I'm using and actually have it on hand. I just need the crystal and a few caps and resistors and I can build these once boards arrive. All parts are on order so within 2 weeks I'll have them built for tests.

Thanks I got it working.

in one part of the code

Code: Select all

#define R2 10
I think its suppose to be BTN_R2?

Very very nice dude! I guess I have to start a second project with one of the new "all-in-one" boards, once I've finished my first GBZ :D
keep on, your PCBs look good and I'm sure there will be a mass of users which want to get one of your boards!
