Too bad, I was hoping that there wouldn't be any TVs that leave out 480i support. My new(ish) Samsung TC27C370 has no problems with a 480i signal...
Ah, I see. I overdid it a bit in my design, the FPGA actively measures the start and end of the horizontal and vertical blanking and then...
I am Thanks =) Maybe I should finish up the Cube stuff so I can finally reclaim the part of my desk where I used to put the C64 for developing...
PAL cubes also have the 54MHz signal on the DV port, my design uses that exclusively. I'm thinking about switching to 27MHz though because the...
It simulates a pressed button on a datasette. Some games (I remember the Leaderboard series) used such a plug as "copy-protection dongle" for...
Some supercaps can leak too, a well-known example is the small RTC backup supercap in the Xbox 1. Unfortunately I have no idea how much current...
(DOL-101 Gamecube without Digital AV out) Actually I don't know. The internal AV encoder chip uses the same digital signals that are present on...
As long as you use only 15kHz modes (576i/480i, SD-TV compatible) there is probably little to no difference - how much depends on the TV/monitor...
There is already a jumper (technically just two solder pads) to switch between component (with embedded sync on Y) or RGB (no embedded sync) on...
Disclaimer: I suck at desoldering THT parts. The ground pins were the main annoyance and that connector has quite a few of them. EDIT: Which...
I'm sorry, but I have to disagree on that. The logic analyzer capture below shows the change in the signal from the active area of the video...
Oh, neat - I didn't know about that format. It's quite similar to what the Gamecube uses, but it's not identical. In particular the Cube does not...
The last time I tried to synthesize the design for a CPLD (without color space conversion), it was about 160 macrocells of an XC95288XL. If you...
Oh, that problem sounds familiar: The fuse settings shown in the gc-forever wiki (lfuse 0xc4, hfuse 0xd9) do not enable the brown-out detection,...
XC6SLX4, maybe XC6SLX9 if you want additional features like an OSD for configuring things like scanlines. Another route would be a DVI or HDMI...
You may need to adapt the top level module for the specific board you use, but the core modules have been used on Xilinx Spartan 3E and 6, Altera...
Second reply attempt, the first one seems to be lost somewhere... Yes, the code could be adapted. However the board you linked to does not have...
Yes - but you would need to connect an external DAC to the board you linked.
Try a newer version - I designed the board using a bleeding-edge checkout of KiCAD because I wanted to try the new Push&Shove router.
If you need a certain amount of reconfigurable logic in a chip, your options are basically only 0.5mm TQFP (various CPLDs and small FPGAs) or BGA....
