The MiSTle projects can be used with off-the-shelf components and some breadboard setup.

To simplify this the MiSTeryNano project provides additional custom designed hardware boards.

These boards are typically to be produced through a service like JLCPCB. You might want to check the instructions in our wiki.

Shields

Shields are carrier boards that carry one or more off-the-shelf development boards, connect them and provide them with additional peripherals like USB Hubs, MIDI ports, Joystick ports etc.

• The MiSTeryShield20k is a base board for the Tang Nano 20k and the M0S Dock with a DB9 joystick connector and MIDI ports
• MiSTeryShield20k RPiPico is a board similar to the MiSTeryShield20k but using a Raspberry Pi Pico instead of the M0S Dock and with a USB hub already built-in
• The MiSTeryShield20k lite is also a base board for the Tang Nano 20k. It includes the RP2040 and a USB-A port and is a minimal all-in-one solution for the Tang Nano 20k.

MCU PMOD's

Many FPGA boards privide so-called PMOD ports. These can be used to add the FPGA Companion MCU to those boards. The MCU PMOD's provide a PMOD connector to common MCU developments boards and makes them compatible with typical FPGA PMOD ports.

FPGA baords providing PMOD ports are include the Tang Primer 20K, Primer 25K, Mega 60k/138K NEO, Mega138kPro and Console 60k/138k

• The PMOD M0S provides a PMOD port for the M0S Dock (BL616 µC)
• The PMOD PiPico provides a PMOD port for Raspberry Pi Pico and (W)ifi
• The PMOD PiZero provides a PMOD port for Raspberry Pi Pico compatible RP2040-ZERO board

Other boards

• The T20 PMOD is an add-on for the Efinix T20BGA256 development board adding a PMOD for HDMI usage, the SD card slot and a Raspberry Pi PICO incl. USB-A header to it making it a complete MiSTeryNano setup.
• The LVDS2TMDS board is and add-on for the Efinix T20BGA256 development board converting its LVDS outputs to TMDS allowing to drive regular digital video signals
• The Atari ST Keyboard design is a tiny 50% Atari ST style keyboard which is meant to become the basis for a Mini Atari ST
• MisteryShield20k DS2 Adapter is an add-on for the MiSTeryShield20k allowing to connect Playstation Dualshock 2 Game controllers to it

Complete stand-alone solutions

• The MiSTeryDev20k is meant to become a first test of a complete all-in-one board for the GW2AR-LV18 FPGA (the same one as on the Tang Nano 20k).
