Pretty interesting - I really thought it would be the capacitors that had gone wonky.

A tool that converts from ZX Spectrum SCR files to PNG files.
Nothing like scratching your own itch. Wanted a nice easy way to convert from ZX Spectrum SCR files to PNGs. There are some nice command line tools for doing it, but here's my web version. www.esp32rainbow.com/tools/scr-to...

I’ve got ESD protection on the USB port and the ESP32 module seems to be pretty robust. To be honest, I was expecting it to fail horribly.
17.12.2024 09:26 — 👍 0 🔁 0 💬 0 📌 0Next step will be RED testing - which hopefully should be straightforward as the module is already CE certified - but I wanted to get at least the basic certification done before that.

And I think this is testing to see what interference is getting back into the power supply (though I'm not completely sure).
