So there is a 1.685 DC offset when we have "black". so max is 3.315 - 1.685 = 1.63V... VGA apparently is supposed to have 0.7V max, so we double the input voltage right there.

Its possible the Videl doesn't output a MSB input to the DAC. Will try and scope it tomorrow.

I did scope mine out the other day against an original ST if that helps https://www.exxosforum.co.uk/forum/viewt ... =40#p29711

@exxos I'll try and take some readings on Sunday night as away at the mo.

I think they will end up being the same as Icky's. I need to test my Falcon DAC out, but trying to do as much to flashy software as possible today.

No rush from my point of view, just happy to help.

Happy to report the quick delivery of my cpu and simm sockets from the @exxos store, thank you very much.

I've got all the parts I need now to finish the other two boards I have and maybe an extra one when exxos is ready to sell some of his extra ones.

:bravo:

Yeah, I was gonna get some new boxes made for the few boards I have left, but now the box company needs like 200 boxes for a sensible price and they ramped on like £70 setup fee now, its just ridiculous . I already brought some edge protecting foam for the boards, but I have no idea how to box the things up now :( Even buying sheet card cut to size costs more than boxes. I even looked into polystyrene foam sheets, but have to buy like 2,000 of them.

Happy new year @PhilC , out of curiosity had any time for the ole 80%er?

No time yet @PaulJ . It's a case of too much to do and too little time.

Wont take long when I do get to it next.

So Phil, how many H4's are alive now? Paulj/2, Kodak80/2, Phil/1, Icky/1, derkom/1, and dog/1. I guess that's eight so far unless I missed someone.

Mine is in intensive care, but it's expected to survive. :?
