Kinetoscope Ethernet Adapter Board
About the Kinetoscope Ethernet Adapter Board
Kinetoscope Ethernet Adapter Board is an open source PCB design by joeyparrish, published on GitHub under the MIT license. It is a 2-layer board measuring 24 × 45.4 mm, with 3 components from 3 distinct parts.
It belongs with the retro computing designs in this gallery.
From the project
Kinetoscope: A Sega Genesis Video Player
The hardware is composed of several stacking boards, each of which hosts a set of subcomponents. The subcomponents are each in a subsheet, exposing hierarchical pins and buses to the parent sheet.
One of these boards includes a microcontroller with WiFi, and runs its own firmware to take commands from the Sega ROM. See firmware in the ../firmware/ folder.
The first working prototype looked like this:
