Overview

Msx mouse adapter is an open-source printed circuit board by bendecaf, from the bendecaf/synth-pcbs repository on GitHub, published under the GPL-3.0 licence. It is a 2-layer board of 39.1 × 32 mm with 13 parts on 30 nets, routed with 183 tracks and 44 vias.

It is built around the ATMEGA168PA-AU. Its parts include 5 capacitors, 3 connectors, 2 resistors, 1 IC and 1 diode. It belongs with the retro computing and games and interfaces and adapters boards and the AVR (ATmega, ATtiny) boards of this library.

This site contains some stuff I have built for some synths/samplers I own.

I tinker with electronics, release stuff when I feel like it and I make it public when it's maybe not perfect. I'm not an electronics expert, so I may not always know what I'm doing. I learn the necessary electronics as I use it. Use at your own risk.

Be smart. Don't just trust the stuff I offer for download here. Take a look at the schematic and the PCB design beforehand.

Feedback is always very welcome 😄 Feel free to ask question in the discussions.


The main content of this site (descriptions, documentations) can be found in the Wiki.

Questions

How big is the Msx mouse adapter PCB?

It measures 39.1 × 32 mm and has 2 copper layers, 1.6 mm thick.

What parts does the Msx mouse adapter use?

13 parts, built around the ATMEGA168PA-AU. The full list of its parts is on this page, with links to each part's symbol and footprint where PCBKit's library has them.

Where can I download the Msx mouse adapter KiCad files?

From the bendecaf/synth-pcbs repository on GitHub, at the commit this page was made from: the board is roland-sxxx/msx-mouse-adapter/msx-mouse-adapter.kicad_pcb and its schematic roland-sxxx/msx-mouse-adapter-unz-hid-pico/msx-mouse-adapter.kicad_sch. PCBKit opens the board in the browser, with nothing to install.

Can I use the Msx mouse adapter design in my own project?

Its repository publishes it under the GPL-3.0 licence: you may reuse it on that licence's terms (keep the author's notice, and for a copyleft licence share your changes alike).
