Xenophon Posted July 20, 2015 Share Posted July 20, 2015 I recently spotted some V9958 homebrew boards with schematics etc, may be of interest to anyone thinking of building their own video board ? http://primrosebank.net/computers/mtx/projects/mtxplus/video/mtxplus_vdp_design.htm Also spotted a V9958 adaptor for breadboarding. http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-7nZwsJMT9pk/VBSuxsyMteI/AAAAAAAAA0Y/xBJ-I-nRjqc/s1600/6809io.png 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RXB Posted July 21, 2015 Share Posted July 21, 2015 When I had my TIM card on the TI99/4A I totally loved it! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CantStopClicking Posted July 21, 2015 Share Posted July 21, 2015 Looks very intriguing. Can 9958's still be sourced somewhere??? Not that I have any skills nor time but I figured it was as rare as hen's teeth and never even bothered investigating any further. Slightly off-topic... I know this has been brought up before and it's not mean to fan the flame but, damn I wish I had a F18A type replacement for the Geneve. Trying to hook the Geneve up to a 21st century monitor is a real bitch! I've got a solution but it ain't pretty (no pun intended - it really isn't pretty). Thanks for sharing regardless! -Dano Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
atrax27407 Posted July 21, 2015 Share Posted July 21, 2015 Both v9938s and v9958s can be found on eBay. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Xenophon Posted July 24, 2015 Author Share Posted July 24, 2015 I've spotted lots of people doing interesting things with V9938/V9958 VDPs on the MSX forum, especially using dual VDPs superimposed on one another giving some superb results. http://www.msx.org/forum/msx-talk/development/superimpose-vdp-under-video-its-possible. http://www.msx.org/forum/msx-talk/hardware/dual-v9958-board. A dual VDP board for a Ti (TMS99xx) system would be cool... ! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
timofonic Posted June 6, 2017 Share Posted June 6, 2017 I see the schematics aren't complete, not all KiCad project files are available :/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
