This device, when paired with a Raspberry Pi Zero, will allow the BBC Micro to be used with any TV or monitor with an HDMI interface.

Compatible with the original BBC Micro (A and B), Master 128, Master Compact, Electron, and the Atom Colour Board.

The unit is highly configurable via the on-screen menu system and the on-board buttons. Although the unit offers many options, it can also be used with no alteration to the default configuration.

Power for this adapter is supplied by the BBC Micro through the RGB video cable, so there is no need for a separate power brick or "wall wart".

Note that this item does not include the Raspberry Pi Zero or the micro SD card, and the software will need to be downloaded onto the SD card.

Included with this item are:
♦ The interface board.
♦ Cable with 6-pin DIN plug for the RGB connection to the BBC.
♦ 3D-printed cable clamp and spacer.
♦ Fixing screws.
♦ 2-pin header for soldering to the Pi Zero's Reset pads* (See note below)

*Any version of the Raspberry Pi Zero is suitable, however the later Zero 2 boards do not support a reset function.
