Olimex has recently featured a new board named VGA2HDMI It is a VGA to HDMI  converter board that can take in VGA signals and convert them into HDMI signals. The reason it's news is because one search will give you many HDMI to VGA converted and not the other way around. The company...

Arduino is pretty much famous for the numerous shields it has. These plug-and-play shields make our life a lot easier while working on some complicated projects. Among all other shields, graphic shields are getting more and more popular. A graphic shield lets you show text, numbers,...

Here is a fun project, created from start to finish by Matthias Koch: In itself, this is no big deal. The generated pattern is a 16x16 expanded pixel image, and 640x480 displays are pretty basic by now - although they’re fine for presenting text-mode information and retro...

The F1200 of an IDT is a digitally controlled intermediate frequency differential variable gain amplifier that adjusts the gain either dynamically or as a one-time channel gain setting. The device has extremely low noise figure over the entire gain control range. It is packaged in...

AtomicZombie @ avrfreaks.net used an ATtiny85 ATMEL microcontroller to produce a 170x240 VGA signal and also send audio along with video. The original plan was to just bit bang some mono VGA and do up a Pong or Tetris game, but things went MUCH MUCH further than I ever thought...

This reference design is a simple VGA signal generation that uses the Freescale’s MC9S08SH16VTJR, which is an 8-bit microcontroller that has Central Processor Unit (CPU) speed of 40MHz with a maximum bus frequency of 20MHz. It has an internal clock source module containing a...
