3. Project Overview Our project is to design and build an electronic monopoly game console. The console will output the visual board to a monitor, output sound via built in speakers, and send player information to android phones/tablets. Players will connect to the console using android phones/tablets and will be able to see game information including how much money and what properties everyone owns.Our project is to design and build an electronic monopoly game console.

6. Component Selection Rationale We had to carefully consider and select the following parts of our design The microcontrollerThe microcontroller The power supplyThe power supply The SRAMThe SRAM MPEG DecoderMPEG Decoder Bluetooth ModuleBluetooth Module Flash MemoryFlash Memory

7. uController Selection Criteria We required a uC with a large enough flash memory (512Kb) in order to easily store game and image data.We required a uC with a large enough flash memory (512Kb) in order to easily store game and image data. The uCThe uC graphics element will require fast computation in order to compute images positions as well as manipulate and draw to external SRAM. The uC had to be able to communicate with the MPEG decoder and Bluetooth module through UART and I2C.

8. Memory Selection Criteria We selected a uController 512kb Flash and 128Kb SRAM.We selected a uController 512kb Flash and 128Kb SRAM. This was because we required a large amount of flash memory in order to be able to save image data, bluetooth logic and game data.This was because we required a large amount of flash memory in order to be able to save image data, bluetooth logic and game data. We also added 1MB external SRAM because we needed to store a double buffered image for VGA output which is about 1MB in size.We also added 1MB external SRAM because we needed to store a double buffered image for VGA output which is about 1MB in size. VGA images are 640*480pixels.VGA images are 640*480pixels.

9. Bluetooth Module Selection Criteria Initially, we decided to use a Bluetooth transceiver.Initially, we decided to use a Bluetooth transceiver. After doing more research, we realized that we would have to sink in a lot of man hours to build the antenna for the transceiver.After doing more research, we realized that we would have to sink in a lot of man hours to build the antenna for the transceiver. In order to reduce time needed to get the Bluetooth up and running on our device, we decided to go with an off the shelf Bluetooth module.In order to reduce time needed to get the Bluetooth up and running on our device, we decided to go with an off the shelf Bluetooth module.

10. Power Supply Selection Criteria Our uController, MPEG decoder and Bluetooth module operate at 3.3VOur uController, MPEG decoder and Bluetooth module operate at 3.3V The only component of our circuit that doesn’t operate at 3.3V is our Digital Analog Converter which operates at 5VThe only component of our circuit that doesn’t operate at 3.3V is our Digital Analog Converter which operates at 5V We choose a Linear regulator that takes in 5.7V-42V and outputs both 3.3V and 5.V with 350 and 430mA respectivelyWe choose a Linear regulator that takes in 5.7V-42V and outputs both 3.3V and 5.V with 350 and 430mA respectively This enabled us to run all components on our circuit.This enabled us to run all components on our circuit.

11. MPEG Decoder Selection Criteria Our MPEG Decoder had to be able to easily communicate with our uC through I2C and UART.Our MPEG Decoder had to be able to easily communicate with our uC through I2C and UART. The decoder had to have fast decompression capability to enable flawless sound playback from the uCThe decoder had to have fast decompression capability to enable flawless sound playback from the uC The decoder had to easily interface with a Digital to Analog Converter in order to output sound filesThe decoder had to easily interface with a Digital to Analog Converter in order to output sound files

12. Packaging Design Stationary Plastic for Bluetooth Simple one-button design for easy plug and play use LEDs for Power and Player status Holes in front for better sound quality 10” 2”
