Re: RGB pattern generator circuit
I'm currently debugging my SCART<->RGB-cable because I think I might have a mistake in the wiring! I suspect that the csync signal is missing and that would explain the weird picture!

RGB pattern generator circuit
I've built an ATtiny2313 based RGB pattern generator by following this guide: https://dselec.wordpress.com/generator . The generator is designed to produce test patterns like these: Untitled.png I'm intending to use it to be able to more accurately adjust my CRT monitors. The service manual has some...

Re: Running an emulator in perfect 50 Hz on a FreeSync/G-Sync monitor
You don't need to have a FreeSync/G-Sync monitor to do this if your monitor has a HDMI input. The spec mandates 50Hz input refresh rate and for close to a decade now I've been sending native panel resolution, 50Hz, vsync'd output to my monitors which have HDMI. Just follow the same guide here to ad...

Re: Running an emulator in perfect 50 Hz on a FreeSync/G-Sync monitor
I wonder if there would be a way to run a real ST through a scan converter (like the Open Source Scan Converter (OSSC)) on a FreeSync monitor @50 Hz.

Running an emulator in perfect 50 Hz on a FreeSync/G-Sync monitor
I've just figured out how to run STeem in perfect 50 Hz on my FreeSync compatible monitor, which supports 49-60 Hz. Normally, Windows won't let me select anything but 60 Hz and 30 Hz but by using the following trick in my NVidia Control Panel it could set up a Windows resolution for 50 Hz. This resu...

Re: 4 channel scope recommendations ?
So all Exxos needs to do is get two of themterriblefire wrote: ↑Tue Dec 15, 2020 12:05 pm Nothing beats my HP1660CS scope/analyser in one. Got mine for under £200. 2 analog channels and 136 digital at 500Mhz.
But those digital channels, wow. That's the one thing I'm missing dearly on my DS1054Z.

Re: 4 channel scope recommendations ?
So the word on the street is the 1054 https://www.rigol-uk.co.uk/product/rigol-ds1054z-50mhz-digital-oscilloscope/ Yeah, I have this exact model. It's pretty awesome. I think it's a steal for its price. The fan is quite noisy though but that shouldn't be too hard to replace with something decent.

Re: Replacing a fried SMT transistor without having schematics
I mean, I could always run the headphone output through a cheap digital amp circuit and connect it to the speakers. Though I'd have to make sure it can drive a woofer and a tweeter separately.
