Accessory board for PSB

Rayman · 2010-01-05 15:07

I'm already dreaming about an accessory board for the PSB board (now in production!)...

Here are some things I want to add:

3-AA cell rechargable battery power (to make it portable)
SRAM and second PROP for XMM programs and perhaps display buffer (similar to Clusso's RamBlade)
IR receive/transmit (to make a super remote control)
WiFi (for internet)
RTC (for time)

Anybody have more ideas?

How about a multi-channel A to D with battery voltage wired up to one channel.

The touchscreen chip already provides this and I've brought those extra channels out to a header that we can connect to the accessory board...

Maybe I should provide ports for yours and Clusso's boards instead of designing my own...· Need to think about that some more...

My modules act as 128MB or 64MW of sram. Same glue logic. You just need to add the footprint for each.
