About the PicoMemcard pico PCB
PicoMemcard pico is an open source RP2040/RP2350 PCB design by dangiu, published on GitHub under the GPL-3.0 license. It is a 2-layer board measuring 36.2 × 63.1 mm, with 6 components from 4 distinct parts.
Its main chip is the Pico, from the RP2040/RP2350 family. By type, the board carries 2 connectors and 1 IC.
From the project
Emulating PSX Memory Card (or controller) using a Raspberry Pi Pico
PicoMemcard allows you to build your own supercharged PSX Memory Card that can be connected to your computer via USB in order to transfer saves directly to/from your PSX. You can use it to repurpose broken/counterfeit Memory Cards creating a better one using only a Raspberry Pi Pico.
Basically anything that will allow you to interface with the memory card slot pins will do. If you have a broken contoller you can cut off the cable and use that since controllers and memory cards share the same bus. Of course, plugging your memory card into the controller slot will prevent you from using 2…

PicoMemcard pico: common questions
What microcontroller does the PicoMemcard pico use?
The PicoMemcard pico is built around the Pico, from the RP2040/RP2350 family.
How big is the PicoMemcard pico PCB?
The PicoMemcard pico measures 36.2 × 63.1 mm, has 2 copper layers and is 1.6 mm thick.
How many components are on the PicoMemcard pico?
6 components, from 4 distinct parts. The full bill of materials is listed on this page.
Where can I download the PicoMemcard pico design files?
From the dangiu/PicoMemcard repository on GitHub, which has the KiCad layout and the schematic; the links under Design files point to each one.
Can I use the PicoMemcard pico design in my own project?
Yes, under the terms of its GPL-3.0 license, which dangiu chose for the repository.
Can I test firmware for the PicoMemcard pico without the hardware?
Yes. HardLabs builds a simulation of the board from its netlist and BOM, so you can run and debug RP2040/RP2350 firmware against it before you order a PCB.
