Kilo's Uzebox
- breadboard design
- fits in a enclosure of an external SAMSUNG burner
EUzebox
The EUzebox is a Uzebox compatible console for the European market with the following features:
- 90° SCART socket on board
- optional MIDI interface
- full trought-hole design for easy assembly
- fits in Hammond 1455L1202 aluminium case
- Kits available for sale
Uzebox JAMMA
The Uzebox JAMMA is 100% compatible with the Uzebox spec and is designed to be connected in arcade machines using the industry standard JAMMA connector.

One of the very few DIY Uzebox out there with a neat enclosure!

DIY Fuzebox
A homemade DIY Fuzebox version from Germany! Link (in German): [1]
SCART version from Russia
This version created by f0lken supports the ubiquitous SCART interface used in Europe and does not require the AD725.
Version 2 with modular design.
Reed G. Law
The Amuzebox is an open source game console based on the Uzebox design. The Amuzebox closely follows the standard Uzebox implementation except for a few minor changes. Oh, and yes, that second picture actually fills an entire wall!!

Uzebox AVCore
The AVCore module (in red) is essentially the full Uzebox on a 40-pins DIP footprint! It can be used standalone and plugged into any circuit or used in conjunction with the baseboard to provided all the required connectors to play games.
Fuzebox
The Fuzebox is a fully open-source, DIY 8-bit game console based on the Uzebox project. It is designed specifically for people who know a little bit of programming to expand into designing and creating their own video games and demos. A full-featured core runs in the background and does all the video and audio processing so that your code stays clean and easy to understand.
EdUzebox
EdUzebox uses SMD components and a SCART connector for AV output hence does not require the AD725 chip. Gerber files are available for download. See its forum thread here.
UzeboxNano
The UzeboxNano uses a Mini DIN-8 for SCART AV output and uses the same connector for both controller inputs to save space. The LED is on a small daughter board which is attached between the two controller connectors. There is also an ESP and a USB to serial bridge which is also used as a power supply. Schematics and gerber files are available in the Hardware folder of Bluescreen2001's github repo.
Internal registers homebrew Z80 console
This isn't a Uzebox, but its an interesting Uzebox inspired homebrew FPGA Z80 based console that the creator successfully ported some Uzebox games to.
Arduinocade
Arduinocade is similar to a Uzebox but uses less components, a slightly lower spec AVR and wireless controllers.
rbox
rbox is a Uzebox-inspired minimalist ARM Cortex M0 based console. Similar to the Uzebox, it features software generated video and sound and requires only a handful of inexpensive components to build.
uChip SVC
The uChip SVC (Simple VGA Console) is an open source retro gaming console based around the ARM Cortex M0+ MCU. Notable features include software generated VGA output, a minimal USB stack for keyboard and gamepad support and it has adopted the Uzebox sound engine.
Uzebox Ω
The Uzebox Ω shares the same board layout as the official Uzebox PCB and can be housed within the official case. The AD725 chip is optional and only required if you want composite or S-Video output, otherwise the Uzebox Ω uses a 9 pin mini din AV connector, the same used by the Sega MegaDrive 2 / Genesis 2 and 3 consoles.
The Uzebox Ω mini din socket connects to a RGB SCART capable TV so this model will mainly be of interest to European, Australian or any other uzers in PAL TV regions. The Uzebox Ω is the work of the same talented engineer that created the Uzebox Nano, Thorsten Erdmann.
