We’ve seen some pretty incredible hacks using the Raspberry Pi 2040. However, one of the most exciting bits of hardware onboard is the Programmable I/O (PIO). Not content with it …read more Continue reading Bringing The PIO To The FPGA
Industrial robots are shockingly expensive when new, typically only affordable for those running factories of some sort. Once they’ve gone through their life cycle building widgets, they can be purchased …read more Continue reading Industrial Robot Gets Open-Source Upgrade
In the days of CRT displays, the precise synchronization between source and display meant that the time between a video line appearing at the input and the dot writing it …read more Continue reading Op Amp Challenge: What’s Your Monitor’s Delay?
One of the problems with designing things on a chip is finding a good way to talk to the outside world. You may not design chips yourself, but you care …read more Continue reading Interlaken Want to Connect All the Chips
[Sebastian Holzapfel] has designed an audio frontend (eurorack-pmod) for FPGA-based audio applications, which is designed to fit into a standard Eurorack enclosure. The project, released under CERN Open-Hardware License V2, …read more Continue reading An Open Hardware Eurorack Compatible Audio FPGA Front End
If you are running video around your home theater, you probably use HDMI. If you are running it in a professional studio, however, you are probably using SDI, Serial Digital …read more Continue reading Arduino Does SDI Video with FPGA Help
Some careful measuring and a little extra effort can be all that separates what looks like a hack job from a slick end product, and that is apparent in [Eric …read more Continue reading Original Controller Ports in Custom Case Means Retro Gaming In Style
Although the HP 54542C oscilloscope and its siblings are getting on in years, they’re still very useful today. Unfortunately, as some of the first oscilloscopes to switch from a CRT …read more Continue reading Fixing an HP 54542C with an FPGA and VGA Display
Ever want to play with an FPGA, but don’t have the hardware? Now, if you have one of those ever-abundant Pi Picos, you can start playing with Verilog without getting …read more Continue reading Want To Play With FPGAs? Use Your Pico!
A problem faced increasingly by retrocomputer enthusiasts everywhere is the supply of chips. Once a piece of silicon goes out of production its demand can be supplied for a time …read more Continue reading A Cycle-Accurate Intel 8088 Core For All Your Retro PC Needs
