Here I report briefly on some great new hardware, which greatly enhances the Sharp PC-1600.
512 KB Modul:
He managed to build a really huge 512 KB module for slot 2 of the PC-1600.
It has been working very reliably in my PC-1600 for over a year now.
The module can also be operated in 256KB mode.
32 KB Eprom without eprom burner:
Another development is a 32KB module that works like an eprom.
The module is written to by means of software in the PC-1600 like an eprom.
Software packages, e.g. the assembler, TEXT+ and debugger can be permanently installed there without data loss.

Generic Bluetooth Module for SHARP Pocket Computers – v2.0:
Once you have used the Sharp Bluetooth module, it becomes simply irreplaceable.
The module runs with the Sharp models PC-1600, 1350/1360, E500, G850 and E220 .
The connection worked right away, without any problems.
USB cable:
A low cost USB cable for the PC-1600 to connect to a PC/Mac.
A new edition of the CE-1601N barcode reader.

MEP Application 2 USB-Keyboard Interface:
The USB keyboard use case comes "out of the box" - no programming required!
It is also possible to program your own application.
MEP Application 3 USB-Stick Interface:
This MEP application is a USB flash drive interface that is fully integrated into the PC-1600 operating system and supports a native file device named "S3:" (or "Y").
USB 2.0 and 3.0 flash drives (USB sticks) formatted with FAT32 or exFAT are supported.
The standard BASIC file commands work with "S3:" or "Y:" in the same way as with "S1:" or "S2:".
MEP Application 4 - SHARP CE-1600P Compatible HDMI plotter with USB interface:
This module is the modern counterpart to the CE-1600P DinA4 plotter and the CE-1600F floppy disk drive.
In addition, the module represents a connected memory stick as a fully integrated S3 file device, just like another RAM disk.
The module is supplied with a 3D-printed housing and a CNC-milled and brushed aluminum cover.
