Pdf of Smartmedia Card spec. https://affon.narod.ru/CARDS/elec10ei.pdf https://affon.narod.ru/CARDS/elec10ei.pdf Because 5v Smartmedia cards are rare and I have a Roland MC505 that can use them, I am wondering if it is possible to create a hardware emulator using an Arduino.

RP2350. 5v tolerant IO if set up correctly, enough GPIO's and the PIO's to trigger everything at once, and more than enough speed to emulate flash. Smart(sic)Media is just a NAND flash interface really.

  Thanks. Do you know of a good library for emulating flash? Looking at the spec, it seems doable, but it is way out of my wheelhouse (assuming I even have a wheelhouse).

    Not offhand alas, but I figure someone's bound to have made one by now...

Oh man, narod.ru brings back a lot of memories. (It kinda was the Russian Geocities, with all the small sites and insane design that implies.)
