The propellurino can be used together with an arduino. The propellurino is a so called "shield" for an arduino microcontroller board. It enhances the Arduino in several ways because it has a lot of interfaces the arduino doesn't have:

This shield enables many features to the Arduino it doesn't have without. It
is especially well suited to implement advanced midi synthesizers with a much
richer sound spectrum than the arduino is capable to produce. There are many
example applications to generate sound.

It also has many interfaces which may be used for own creations. There is a VGA
connector for LCD-Monitors to display data from the arduino, a PS/2 connector
for mouse or keyboard, a midi-in port, a stereo analog output and 8
additional digital I/O ports.
The coprocessor is an 8 core 32 Bit propeller multiprocessor. A program is
downloaded to the chip to enable the arduino to control the functions of the
propellurino. This eases the usage for people who know how to program the
Arduino.

features
- VGA connector
- dual DAC output for sound generation
- PS2 mouse or keyboard interface
- MIDI in
- microphone connector

Here is an mp3 from the . The synthesizer object from ariba can be run on the Propellurino shield ( without sd-card access ).

Or you can run the hydra sound engine on the Propellurino. Here is an from the .

Hi there,

here is a new Propellurino software version. In the the first Propellurino driver V1.0 the vga display had only a reslolution of 32x15 characters. This version ( V1.1 ) will enhance the VGA display.

cheers,
chris

What is the difference between VGA nad DVI cables? What is the difference between a VGA and a DVI cable. Just bought a computer and it has both and I need to know which one is better to use as the user guide just says pick one.

Hi iacherra,

just take a look at the wikipedia article.

The DVI port is a digital connection. The VGA-signal is an analog signal with separated analog wires for the red, green, blue color. The Propellurino is made to the analog VGA-signals.

Best regards,
chris
