In this episode we are assembling an Atari 8-bit SIO breakout board kit. The board fits between the pins of the SIO port. It comes with a voltage regulator that brings the 5.0v on the Atari SIO port down to 3.3v. The board enables use of directly-connected external components like a micro-controller or micro-computer.
This SIO breakout board works with Atari 8-bit computers, including:
