== TIAO GBoard / GIMX Adapter ==

For system connection diagram as GIMX V2 adapter, please refer to [[TIAO GIMX System Connection Diagram]].
For loading the firmware, please refer to [[How to Install GIMX Firmware on TIAO GBoard/GIMX Adapter]]

The [http://www.diygadget.com/development-boards/tiao-gimx-gboard-game-input-multiplexer-matrix-usb-serial-and-atmega32u4-development-board.html TIAO GBoard / GIMX adapter] is a combined all in one board for serial and AVR development.  It also provides jumper connections for easy and quick GIMX connectoion (to be used as a GIMX Game Input MultipleXer or Game Input MatriX adapter.   For more information on GIMX, please check it out [http://blog.gimx.fr/ here].

The TIAO GBoard/GIMX V2 Adapter features:

* All in one board contains USB to COM adapter and ATMEVA32U4 for AVR development.  
* Bootloader is installed on the ATMEGA32U4, so you don't need a programmer to load the firmware.
* Quick connection jumpers to convert the GBoard to a GIMX adapter

=== TIAO GBoard/GIMX V2 Adapter Hardware Dimensions ===
