From the project
SD converter mod-board for the Nintendo NES Classic, Famicom classic, SNES Classic and Superfamicom classic. For use with Hakchi.
This design is a mod-board that solders directly onto the PCB. This board allows the console to a Micro-SD card. This works well with Hakchi and the tools at Hakchi Resources. The board is designed with KiCad 5.
It is: Cheap Home solderable (although you will need a fine tip) Compatible with Hakchi firmware Tidy Open source NOT easy to solder. The minimal install requires soldering pads that are 1mm apart. If you are used to soldering surface mount, no problem. If not, this should not be your first project. (But it is open source, so if you want to flood eBay with them, be my guest!) NOT as…
