What's Changed

  • Reverted faster TMS Read PIO due to issues with MSX
  • Support for SCART RGBs NTSC 480i @ 60Hz and PAL 576i @ 50Hz
  • Fixed v0.3 board configuration not carried through to build

Binaries

There are a number of versions of the firmware with the following naming scheme:

pico9918-<pcbversion>-<output>-build-<firmwareversion>-<options>.uf2

<pcbversion>

  • pcb-v0-3 is for the v0.3 PCB only.
  • pcb-v0-4 is for v0.4, v1.0 and v1.1 PCBs.

<output>

  • vga standard VGA 640x480 @ 60Hz.
  • rgbs-ntsc480i SCART 15kHz RGBS - NTSC 480i @ 60Hz.
  • rgbs-pal576i SCART 15kHz RGBS - PAL 576i @ 50Hz.

<options>

  • sl = scanlines enabled (not supported for SCART)

Example

The version installed on PICO9918s I produce is pico9918-pcb-v0-4-vga-build-0-4-3-sl.uf2 for PCB v0.4+ with VGA output and scanline effect enabled.

Installation

It is recommended to remove the PICO9918 from your device before updating the firmware.

To install, just hold the 'BOOT' button while plugging your PICO9918 into a PC, then drag the firmware .uf2 file on to the new USB drive which should have the volume label RPI-RP2. You PICO9918 will restart (and disconnect) automatically.
