A homebrew scandoubler project. It is bug free, supports DPMS energy saving and PAL / NTSC screenmodes. It fits into A500 and A2000 perfectly.
The logic is realized with a Xilinx XC95144XL CPLD. The video DAC is a ADV101 from Analog Devices.
On the pictures below You can see how the rev. 3 is fitting in an Amiga 500.

And the rev 4. in Amiga 2000. Needless to say, both prototypes are working properly.

Hi,
ReplyDeleteNice update!, A2000 ;)
Fran
Great! Can I preorder A2000 version somewhere?
ReplyDeleteNo preorders are accepted as the scandoubler is not ready for production yet.
ReplyDeleteAwesome man. I'm really jealous of your success. Your projects here are really fantastic. I've got more ideas than I have time, but that's no excuse!
ReplyDeleteKeep up the great work. Love the pictures, would love some more of the technical details, code, or even pseudo-code/algorithms. For instance, can you spell out in detail how the scandoubler works? How do you decide when to sample denise? Do you use some triggers to reset a counter, and then count so much time until the line trigger? Do you use a line buffer, and process a line at a time?
