This thread is the result of spending WAY too much time chasing down threads and links every time someone asks where to buy KADE-compatible AVRs and hardware. miniArcade/microArcade Keyboard, gamepad, and optical (spinner/trackball) firmwares available in KADE Loader. atmega32u2 (or at90usb162) Official KADE stores: (links for the North American store, European sales, International sales, and Brazil & International) http://emukade.com/ North American store - http://northamerica.emukade.com/ Bruno's store - http://shop.brunofreitas.com/ Other vendors: BYOAC member MaxRod has some for sale. PM him for details. Out-of-stock or former vendors: http://www.ck3.co.uk/minimus-32-avr-atmel-atmega32u2-usb-dev-board.html -- domain changed to "controllermax.co.uk", don't see the Minimus on the new site http://www.foundmy.com/oscom/minimus-avr-usb-32k-instock-p-402.html -- site is currently offline http://www.xconsoles.com/products/MINIMUS_32_AVR_ATMEL_ATMEGA32U2_USB_DEV_BOARD.html http://www.modchipcentral.com/store/minimus-32-jailbreak-minimus32-usb-dongle-canada-usa.html miniArcade/microArcade alternate boards Will add info and links when available. miniArcade 2.0 - (Currently in beta testing) Keyboard, gamepad, rotary mechanical joystick, analog, and console firmware options available in miniArcade 2.0 Mapper. atmega32u4 -- "DFU" bootloader and 16 MHz crystal ("Atmel DFU" requires pullup resistor) Beta testing announcement thread here. Official KADE stores: The miniArcade 2.0 is not yet available from the Official KADE Store. PCB fabrication (gerber) files are included in the distro package. miniArcade 2.0 alternate boards atmega32u4 -- Select "DFU" bootloader and 16 MHz crystal ("Atmel DFU" requires pullup resistor) MattairTech: *** Effective July 5, 2020, MattairTech will no longer be accepting orders. See site for more details. *** The MattairTech MT-DB-U4 is a perfect pin-for-pin match for the miniArcade 2.0 daughterboard. http://www.mattairtech.com/index.php/development-boards/atmega32u4-usb-development-board-arduino-compatible.html miniArcade 2.0 alternate bootloader boards Procedures are available to load the firmware and EEPROM files on these non-dfu bootloader AVRs: - Arduino Micro - Arduino Pro Micro - Arduino Leonardo - Teensy 2.0 - Adafruit ItsyBitsy 32u4 5v 16 MHz (procedures/confirmation/diagram pending) KADESTICK Gamepad and analog firmwares -- details in this thread. atmega32u4 -- Select "DFU" or "Atmel DFU" bootloader and 16 MHz crystal ("Atmel DFU" requires pullup resistor) MattairTech: http://www.mattairtech.com/index.php/development-boards/atmega32u4-usb-development-board-arduino-compatible.html maxArcade Beta prototype -- keyboard, gamepad, and analog firmwares available in KADE Loader. AT90USB646 (or AT90USB1286) -- Select "Atmel DFU" bootloader MattairTech: https://www.mattairtech.com/index.php/development-boards/mt-db-u6.html maxArcade pinout (WIP): Shows the pinout on the AT90USB646 and the associated screw terminals in KADE Loader. http://kadevice.tk/forum/viewtopic.php?f=53&t=4125&p=7135#p7135 miniConsole+ Plug-and-play (or customizable) keyboard, gamepad, and analog firmwares for retro controller or arcade control inputs and outputs to a number of console or computer systems -- more details in this post. Kickstarter details here. The miniConsole+ should be available from the Official KADE Store at http://emukade.com/ once the rest of the Kickstarter rewards are shipped. Bruno's store - http://shop.brunofreitas.com/ KADE hardware KADE Hardware source files: https://github.com/kadevice/KADE/tree/master/open%20hardware The Bill of Materials (BOM) lists all hardware used in the KADE and several alternate wiring hardware options like pin headers/prefab wiring from Paradise Arcade Shop, etc. I'll update this post as needed with new vendors, hardware, and KADE encoders. If anyone finds a good source, LMK. Scott |

You might want to remove xconsoles. They no longer list it on their site. |

Thanks for reminding me to update the OP. Several places are now out-of-stock. Scott |

Interesting, PJRC's board is not compatible? Why is that? Not that I use PJRC much (I prefer MattairTech) because I hate fussing with his bootloader. I'd feel more comfortable if I knew what was running under the hood there. I just ask because everyone seems to like dry humping his boards second to the damn Arduino lineup. |

The microArcade/miniArcade use the Atmel bootloader which is compatible with the current version of KADE Loader. KADESTICK also uses the Atmel bootloader, but you have to use FLIP to program it since Loader hasn't been updated to recognize the MattairTech board yet. If there's a good tutorial showing how to load hex files to boards with Arduino bootloaders, I'd love to try it. I picked up a generic Pro Micro several months ago to use as a KADESTICK, but still haven't figured out how to load hex files on it like Jon managed to on his. :banghead: :dizzy: Scott |
