Another Dragon 32 Rising

Post by Icky »

Following @rubber_jonnie's thread on his Whoops, I did it again. I have a problem, Dragon 32 inbound. I have had one for quite some while given to me by a friend and although it came with loads of games, mags, box etc. it did not have a PSU. I had been looking at doing something myself to replace the internal one as the PSU is just a 240V to 11V ac transformer but I have so many projects on the go I went for this.

https://www.dragonplus-electronics.co.u ... -jan-2022/ - nice little kit to build up.

They also have a few other Dragon add-ons and daughter boards.
