General Parts Info
WiFiCom base
- Pi Pico W with headers
- Breadboard: 830 tie points for a full build
- Breadboard jumper wires
- A kit including some short wires is recommended
- Or, very short connections can be made using legs cut from extra resistors
- Visible LED: conventionally orange in this project
- 220R resistor
- 3 small pushbuttons (tactile switch)
- Screen: 4-pin SSD1306 128x64 OLED module
- Note that GND and Vcc are switched on some of these products - check yours carefully!
Speaker
- Passive buzzer module with built-in amplifier and 3 pins for Vcc, GND and signal: recommended for breadboarding
- See the schematic for a possible alternative circuit
- Note: different speakers may need different circuits
Prong circuit
- Resistors: 1 each of 470K, 100K, 6K8, 1K
- 1nF ceramic capacitor
- Connector to toy e.g. 2 round breadboard jumpers
IR LED circuit
- (Shared between all IR devices and D-Scanner barcodes)
- IR LED, 940nm or 950nm
- OFL-5102 or LTE-4208 works well
- 220R resistor
Data Link and Fusion Loader
- TSOP4838 IR sensor
- Vishay brand recommended - other brands may have issues with Data Link
- (Also need the IR LED circuit)
iC/Twin/DigiWindow
- TSMP58000 IR sensor
- Discontinued - possible replacements are under investigation
- (Also need the IR LED circuit)
Talispod/dam
- 1K2 resistor (1%)
- 3K3 resistor (1%)
- 1nF ceramic capacitor
- Connector to the toy
- Note: we can't just stick wires into the prongs as with Digimon
- Buy a premade connector?
- Craft a connector?
- Desolder a Talisdam cord, replace with something else, and use the cord with other toys?
