Re: CGA/EGA capture with 6€ logic analyser

You can easily calculate color component by multiplying hexadecimal 0x55 by 2 bit EGA color component. So EGA 00 is 0. EGA 01 is 0x55, EGA 10 = 0xAA, EGA 11 = 0xFF. So in general cable wiring does not really matter. You can get color by using simple bit operations. I spent some time with sigrok. It …

Re: CGA/EGA capture with 6€ logic analyser

For EGA we actually need 6 channels plus 1 or 2 sync. Except if you only want to support the 200 line modes in RGBI. EDIT: Which reminds me: does anyone have a circuit that converts RGBrgb to RGB? Then I could try to hook up my EGA to the OSSC and compare with your results. https://gglabs.us/node/ …

Re: CGA/EGA capture with 6€ logic analyser

Actually resolution does not matter. You just keep drawing line until HSYNC asserted, then you go to beginning of new line and wait for HSYNC deasserts. Same with VSYNC you keep drawing new lines untill VSYNC asserted. Once that happens you go to [0, 0] point and wait for VSYNC deasserts. So signal …

Re: CGA/EGA capture with 6€ logic analyser

Really great find! I think it has great potential as a converter. Looks like there is no API documentation so some reverse engineering is required. Can you check is this one based on Cypress FX2 chip? I'll order one immediately. I do not have much time but in month or two i can get some results. …
