- On-die STM32 temperature sensor support : You can get the current CPU core temperature from the embedded menu :
press both buttons to enter the menu. Choose "temperature" or "E " if you have the original 7 segments display.
- Blackberry trackball : Sensitivity reduced/better usability.

- Power supply voltage measurement :
You can now see/read the power supply voltage incoming to the floppy emulator.
This feature is quite useful to check the machine power supply state/working condition.
If you want to use this feature you must add this voltage divider to measure
the power supply on the JC jumper input :
VSS/GND|---| 1Ko Resistor |--(JC pin)--| 4.7Ko Resistor |---< 5V Power Supply input.
(See https://hxc2001.com/download/floppy_dri ... onitor.jpg)
Notes :
- Use +/-1% Resistors if possible.
- This voltage divider support up to 18V.
Use the embedded menu to access the system monitor :
Press both buttons to enter the menu. Choose "System Monitor" or "E " if you have the original 7 segments display.
- "Temperature" menu renamed "System Monitor".

HXCFEUSB_HFE_beta_firmware.zip20 June 2019 : Firmware STM32 USB HxCFloppyEmulator v3.3.1.1a ( -> In the "WIP_Firmware" Folder and https://hxc2001.com/custom_fw/)
New major feature ! : On screen display support (OSD overlay)
The HxC firmware for Gotek now support the On Screen Display !
You can now select images and see the drive status on the machine's screen without any additional software or LCD/OLED !
No need to make holes in the machine case anymore .
You only need 2 wires and a resistor to connect the Gotek to the machine's video signals :
One wire is used for the CSYNC video signal (Composite Sync), the other wire for the red, green (prefered) or blue signal.
One resistor must be put in serie on the color signal between the Gotek and the machine.
You can use a value between 220 and 470 ohms for this resistor. A potentiometer can be also used to tune the OSD brightness/contrast.
This was currently tested on Amiga 500, Atari STE and Amstrad CPC 6128 machines, but should work with any machines having a composite sync signal.
HxC Firmware for Gotek OSD wiring

- OSD :
-> Code speed optimizations (CPU pipeline + Flash prefetch optimizations).
-> OSD Polarity can be now set with the "OLED screen polarity" parameter.
-> Better/lower lines jitter while floppy emulation is running.
- USB : Code speed optimizations (read & write Fifos, ISR).
- ASM ISR (Step, Drive Select...) : Many code speed optimizations (CPU pipeline + Flash prefetch optimizations).
- The firmware is now stable with both OSD and floppy emulation working in the same time !
