ZX Spectrum USB Adapter for Raspberry Pi RetroPie Builds

ByCarlo Palumbo

I’ve been wanting to go all-out on a RetroPie build for a while now, and when I saw that reproduction Sinclair ZX Spectrum were available I knew they would be perfect.
It would have been simple enough to cram a Raspberry Pi into the case, but I wanted the ZX Spectrum keyboard to be functional. That’s why I designed this USB keyboard adapter board. The standard ZX Spectrum keyboard ribbons plug into the adapter, and it connects to any keyboard as a standard USB keyboard. There is also a DC barrel jack to supply power to the Raspberry Pi and to an optional fan.

Electronics and informatics are my biggest passions and through the development of projects in both areas during my graduation I was able to improve skills required to become expert in both. Curiosity was essential to increase my willing for learning more every day and that same curiosity is what motivates me to keep developing my knowledge. I have also attended the iOS Apple Developer Academy in Naples and won the WWDC18 contest.
