Pi1541 is a floppy-emulator for Commodore 64 designed and developed by Steve White, to be run using a Raspberry Pi version 3. Steve released the project as Open Source, and with the help of his drawings, i made some PCB:s and gathered the components required for a kit to make a "Pi-HAT".

Except for the kit, you will need the following:

  • A Commodore 64 (or similiar)
  • A 6-pin serial cable
  • A Raspberry Pi minimum version 3B, with a power adapter and a microSD-card.

The PCB is built using Steve's "Option B", which means you need this in options.txt:

splitIEClines = 1


Other options, and information how you get started, is available on Steve's web page: https://cbm-pi1541.firebaseapp.com/


This product is available as a kit or an assembled unit. All assembled units are tested and delivered with functional warranty. 20% of all sales goes to the Pi1541-project for their awesome work.


(V1.0 is out of stock, but still here for reference)

The kit (V1.0) contains:

  • PCB
  • 4pc BSS138, SOT323
  • 1pc 40-pin socket
  • 5pc push buttons
  • 1pc DIN6 female
  • 1pc 560 ohm resistor (R1), 1206
  • 2pc 1k resistor (R2, R3), 1206
  • 2pc 10k resistor array, 1206
  • 1pc 7406, SO14
  • 2pc 12mm spacers
  • 1pc LED, 1206
  • 1pc 100nF capacitor

V1.1:

  • PCB
  • 4pc BSS138, SOT323

  • 2pc 12mm spacers
  • 1pc LED, 1206
  • 1pc 100nF capacitor
  • Space / socket for an OLED (SSD1306, not included)





PRICE:
1 kit, you solder it yourself - 195 SEK (~$23)
1 assembled and tested unit - 495 SEK (~$57)

There are 200 kits/units in stock, ready for immediate dispatch.

Optional: (available from 2018-06-12)

Hello all

I have now re-stocked, and have over 200 units in stock.
 
I have now updated the information, since the new batch (V1.1, green PCB) differs slightly from the old batch (V1.0, blue PCB). The difference lies in that the two resistor arrays were replaced with 8 resistors, for easier soldering. Also, board space / connector holes to support an OLED (SSD1306, not included) was added. Using the OLED you can do all selection that way. See top post for an example photo.
 
Interested in Kit to solder please.
Pm Sent.
