Neogeo controller tester
About the Neogeo controller tester PCB
Neogeo controller tester is an open source PCB design by turmoni, published on GitHub under the CERN-OHL-P-2.0 license. It is a 2-layer board measuring 51.6 × 44.5 mm, with 30 components from 6 distinct parts.
By type, the board carries 16 resistors, 12 diodes and 2 connectors.
From the project
A simple board that tests the pins of a NeoGeo/Supergun-compatible DA15 controller
A simple board that tests the pins of a NeoGeo/Supergun-compatible DA15 controller. Ultimately this is a slightly fancy way of getting 5V through a bunch of LEDs, which will illuminate when the corresponding button is pressed.
I created this for my own use with building my 9pin2supergun project, as a simple visual way to check whether my hardware and code were working properly, but I can imagine it being useful to other people.
