DSerial Edge

DSerial Edge is an I/O adapter for the NDS handheld console.

For DSerial² information go to DSerial2.

DSerial Edge

New Features

  • Boots DS from microSD and microSDHC cards
  • Complete Slot-1 solution
  • 2 x UART
  • 48MHz improved performance with C8051F34A microcontroller
  • Remote debugging via GDB and devkitARM

Note: RS232 level converter and accelerometer were removed, since they were under-used on DSerial2.
