🚀 Introducing SidecarTridge Multi-Device v3 – Smaller, Stronger, Smarter!

The SidecarTridge Multi-Device v3 is here—the next evolution of the ultimate multi-device emulator for the Atari ST, STE, and Mega series. Now with a more compact design, better performance, and improved connectivity.

🔥 Key Features:

• Smaller & More Compact – A slimmer design makes installation easier while maintaining all functionality.
• Enhanced Performance & Stability – ENIG PCBs and optimized track layout improve signal integrity and reduce electrical noise, especially in older machines.
• Improved Power Efficiency – Optimized power handling lowers power consumption without compromising performance.
• Stronger WiFi Signal – A larger copper window for the WiFi antenna enhances signal strength and reduces interference.
• Flexible Pico W Integration – Supports direct soldering or reflowing of the Raspberry Pi Pico W for a professional-grade assembly.
• Expanded Connectivity for Makers – Now includes both JST and classic two-pin connectors to externalize the RESET and SELECT buttons, support UART for developers, and even enable DEBUG access for advanced users.

✅ 100% backward compatible with the previous version.

🎮 About SidecarTridge

SidecarTridge is a state-of-the-art multi-device emulator crafted for the Atari ST, STE, and Mega series.
This edition is perfect for individuals with soldering skills who already own a Raspberry Pi Pico W or WH or can buy one from a local dealer.

It leverages the robust capabilities of the RP2040 microcontroller found in the Raspberry Pi Pico, enabling it to: - Emulate both 64Kbyte and 128Kbyte ROMs by simply loading the binary files from a microSD card or via a Wi-Fi connection. - Interact with the cartridge bus in real-time for data reading and writing, allowing for seamless emulation of different devices.
👉 Check the documentation for the current list of devices. - Expand your creativity – Thanks to its open architecture and the open-source code available, SidecarTridge can evolve to meet any challenge you envision.

🛠️ What's Included in This Kit?

• SidecarTridge PCB board Revision 3.1

🚨 Important Notes: - This kit does not include the Raspberry Pi Pico W or WH. - This kit does not include a USB A to USB micro cable.
- Since version 3, the Pico W can be soldered directly onto the board.
If you prefer to install the Pico WH or use headers, you will need a 2x20 female pin headers.
