Re: CGA Replica / Potential New-Design CGA Card

A CGA card with HGC+-style RAM font support would also be interesting. Or a HGC+ clone in general. Interesting idea, since both CGA and HGC (aka MGA) are using the same CRTC and can co-exist, even. They are like brothers, so to say. That's why I added a HGC clone in my XT class PC in first place, …

Re: CGA Replica / Potential New-Design CGA Card

2) I DO still want to do a chip-for-chip replica of the original CGA card, for nostalgia and for the sake of archiving the hardware. 3) I am very happy to cooperate with others, as I would love to make the best possible product for everyone :) In that case, you can find the CGA's (presumably) …

Re: CGA Replica / Potential New-Design CGA Card

Apologies for the late reply, my alarms didnt go off this morning which is quite lovely. In response to a few of these, lets get going. 1) If I were to go the FPGA route, I could probably integrate everything from CGA, EGA, Tandy, and VGA on one chip. I would need to look at how many logic cells …

Re: CGA Replica / Potential New-Design CGA Card

Interesting idea. This may sound a bit redundant, but are you intending it to be connected to an actual CGA monitor? I just ask because it seems like the cards themselves are still fairly common, where as the monitors are more scarce and harder to keep running, since they're all 30+ years old now. …

CGA Replica / Potential New-Design CGA Card

Hello all, Im fairly new to the Vogons forums themselves but I have been very into the field of reverse engineering and have a bit of a proposal for you guys. I have had my hands on a few OG IBM CGA cards for a while, and am considering redesigning it for 1) my own 8088-Based PC/104 board, along …
