PCB Features

Supports all MOS SID chips e.g. MOS6581, MOS6582 & MOS8580

Supports SID chip replacements e.g. SIDKick-Pico, SwinSID, ARMSID (untested), FPGASID (untested)

1 MHz oscillator (external optional, enabled via jumper pad)

if no external clock is detected USBSID-Pico will generate a 1 MHz square wave using pio

if an external clock is detected will read the external clock signal

Power via USB

5v stepup for clean 5v V CC to both SID chips

12v or 9v stepup for clean VDD to both SID chips

12v/9v jumper, defautls to 12v ~ inspired by SIDBlaster-Nano design

Audio out filter as in the C64 schematicsWith optional 8580 cap, be sure to leave out/or remove for 8580 SID!

Audio jumper
