pico_chip8

A chip8 emulator port for raspberry pi pico with VGA out

Wiring

The code was made originally for the Adafruit Feather RP2040 beacause that the wiring is like this:

• Columns of keypad matrix are connected to 7 - 10 GPIO pins.
• Rows of keypad matrix are connected to 26 - 29 GPIO pins.
• HSYNC pin is gpio 24.
• VSYNC pin is gpio 25.
• RED, GREEN and BLUE pin are 18, 19, 20 GPIOs respectively. They needs 330 Ohms resistors.
