See all specifications and full product information HERE
Optional Add-ons quick information:
- Massive Heatsink (recommended): Custom heatsink to keep your FPGA massively cool (35x35x15mm size). Ideal for silent operation, or even completely passive cooling!
- Remote Control Kit (recommended): Allows you to power ON/Off your MiSTer from your couch, also the Reset, Menu, and USR MiSTer functions. Combined with the internal MT32-Pi it also controls switching of the User Port, changing roms and synths, midi volume and other general system functions.
- B-Board for QMTECH Cyclone V KFB compatibility: As the layout of this FPGA board is very different it needs this special B-Board to connect it to your Ironclad DX. It also integrates pillars to mount a fan, has the same illumination leds than the standard B-Board, and serves as guide for the Massive heatsink on QMTECH’s board.
- Raspberry Pi Zero 2w – Mt32-Pi PnP Kit: This kit includes a Raspberry Pi Zero 2w with soldered Pin header + mounted heatsink + MicroSD preconfigured for MiSTer with the latest Mt32-Pi software and Soundfonts. Plug and Play. With enough free space in case you want to add your own sondfonts later.
- 128MB SDRAM Module: Needed to to play the “big” good old games, official XS-DS V3.0 module design, compatible with all cores, maximum speed and reliability.
- RGB to Composite/S-Video converter: It plugs to the video multi-out (VGA out) and converts the RGB signal to composite and S-video. PAL and NTSC standard is selectable with a switch. The Ironclad DX supports official MiSTer S-Video output and has native S-Video output via the Sega Saturn AV OUT with passive internal luma trap (mister.ini must be configured for s-video out). This add-on uses active RGB to S-Video encoding and is useful for cores that do not support the official MiSTer’s Composite/S-Video output signal. Mister.ini must be configured for RGB out. MORE INFO
SNAC Adapters (USB3) Add-ons quick information:
- SNAC Adapters USB3 FULL KIT: Kit that includes all the USB3 SNAC Adapters I make plus the USB3 extension cable at a special price. No DB9 adapters are included. If you mark this option don’t also mark the other checkboxes for the standalone USB3 SNAC adapters by mistake, except if you want more than one unit of an adapter of course. You can find all the information about this adapters HERE.
- SNAC Adapters USB3: Connect to the USB3 shaped userio port, compatible also with official MiSTer IO board and others. 1 Player or 2 Players depending on model, Compatible with standard cores snac and also compatible with DB9 SNAC8 cores. The definitive snac splitters at an affordable price, what else could I say?. You can find all the information about this adapters HERE.
- USB3 Male to Male extension: Necessary to connect the USB3 SNACS, it is a standard male to male USB3.0 extension cable.
SNAC Adapters (DB9) Add-ons quick information:
- SNAC Adapter DB9 Megadrive/Gen 2-Player: If you use the DB9 fork cores this adapter allows you to control the Mister’s menu, NES, SNES, Neo-Geo, Genesis, PCE and more, lag free, with your Megadrive controllers via SNAC interface.
- DB9 Extension cable (0.4m): Needed to connect the DB9 SNAC adapters to your Ironclad. It is a standard DB9 M-F extension cable (not null-modem).
