Granules! That's a new one for me.

epic effort!

Done that.

Yeah, small and big CPLD.

Two LEDs that come on RED, but they do appear to have a second color..

Anyone know anything about this card?

Weird-ass resistor networks. Never seen this package before.

The DRAM and VRAM. I will have to see where the 'serial' video data goes, if anywhere. I would've thought there would be a DAC, or at least some high-speed stuff to get digital video off the board, but maybe not? There's nothing that looks it could xmit digital video, and also nothing analog.

The chip I'll eventually remove:

VRAM, DRAM, UART, small microcontroller, the TMS34020 GPU, and an ISA<->34020 bridge chip that provides (memory) windowed access into the 34020's address space.

this is a fantastic project.

I’ve got one of these and really like it and the shots it produces. It’s like an entirely different timeline of camera development.

Good call. That did lower the 'fuzzy' bits of the noise, but it was still >100mV. The caps are all epoxied up, so I ended up putting a big ceramic across +5v and and it really knocked the noise down.

Physics has a chance to do the funniest thing.

Oh a meeting, that should do it. How about you roll in there with some hardware and actually feed some people?

Three months until Gemini garbage summary above that.
