Gottlieb Soundboard on FPGA
Features:
- NEW: hardware v2.30 comes with all parts in THT. Easy self soldering, easy part changes
- emulation of ALL System1 soundboards
- emulation of ALL System80 & 80A soundboards (including speech)
- emulation of early System80B soundboards (see list below)
- speech capabilities without the 'rare' SC-01 speech chip
- 5Volt only, no additional powersupply needed
- easy update of software via 'USB Blaster'
The speech is generated via a cheap MP3 player device, giving the opportunity to change the speech easily.
Parts needed
The PCB will be preassembled with all components by JLCPCB except the following parts. I added an example link to aliexpress shop where I ordered succesfully in the past.
Altera CycloneII EP2C5T144 (include, at least one, programmer (USB Blaster))
Two standard micro SD cards ( one for the speeches in DFplayer and one to store the Gottlieb rom code for the FPGA) with minimum 1GB space each.
- DFplayer and SD card is only needed for games with speech
- Gottlieb rom code need to be stored on the micro SD card in the 'micro SD shield' Adapter. Special format needed, have a look to the user manual!
Documentation & Software
NOTE: Some Miniplayers do not work with Stereo and/or wav files. If you facing troubles with the files in 'speech.zip' try the mono version in 'speech (mono MP3).zip'
