From the project

Pro "Mini" version of the Coleco Adam ADE using an Arduino Mega2560 Pro Embed and 0.91" OLED display

Yet another version of hardware compatible with the AdamNet Drive Emulator (ADE) software by Sean Myers. This is a smaller version of my previous design now built around an (unofficial) Aruduino Mega 2560 PRO Embed board and replacing the 1602 LCD with an 0.91" I2C OLED screen and SMD components.

Here's a size comparison between the two versions.

All components can be sourced from the usual low cost China based vendors for a total build cost of around $20. Please see the hardware component page for more details.
