Veteran's 2nd GBZ (HDMI Screen) (Completed)
Posted: Sat Jul 08, 2017 1:55 pm
here comes another one......
my first build was a great learning experience (and the finished result, I am more than happy with)....
but I wanted something different for my second build, doing the same thing over a again just didnt excite me....
ohh and again i wont be using any hotglue in this build....
This build will have....
Pi Zero W (£9.60)
3.5 HDMI LCD (£14.00)
Helder Gameboy Zero Button PCB (£8.00)
Helder Power Strip (£1.00)
Generic Power Boost PSU (£2.00)
Cambles Safe Shutdown (£13.50)
4000mah 3.7 Lipo Battery (£10.50)
Mini Audio Class D amplifier board (2 x 3W) (£1.00 includes the headphone socket)
2 x Netbook Speakers (£1.50)
Deadpan Robot Screen Surround + Buttons (£8.00)
i have a pro micro controller, but most probably wont use it and wire the button pcb via gpio.... this will eliminate the need for a usb hub and also keep the pi zero usb socket free to be used for the external 2.0 socket (less is more)....
i'm going to be using the audio from the HDMI screen, via its headphone socket, so just needed the audio board to power the speakers
even though i never got it from Helder, i'm cuffed it has Helder name on it.... the build wouldnt feel right without it....
now i'm aiming for another clean build, so some 3d printed parts were needed (used 3dhubs, need to get me a 3d printer)
total cost (£12.50 inc postage)
links to STL files used in this build can be found here.....

but had to modify it a bit, as one of the screw post looked a little flaky and i'm going to remove the backlight switch and micro usb port...
, and i didnt like the zeroboy logo (sorry zeroboy)
but i did knock up a couple of holders, one for the audio board and another for the power strip
and i got a drill guide printed.....
thats it for now..... fineshed build pics to follow.....
