"At the beginning it was a dream but now it is becoming true"
I wanted to do something for the Amiga world, after two decades, but to present the usual expansions of memories or strange interfaces was not a good idea.
So I decided to create from scratch a strongly requested circuit i.e. an internal board for the Amiga: an OCS/ECS/AGA scandoubler.
I named it the "Amiscandoubler".
The road map includes the version for slot-equipped Amigas (A2000/2500) as well as an internal card for the A500/500+/1000 or any other Amiga with a socketed Denise/Superdenise.
Later an AGA version will be made only for A4000/4000T when I can get my hands on a working A4000.
An external version is also being studied for all PAL computers with a video output (RGB/Y-C/CVBS) such as C64, VIC20, A1200, A600, Atari, Mac, etc. or even other equipment such as VHS video recorders.
Everything started with this:
First prototype with PCB:
Second improved version:
The Amiscandoubler permits to see a 15kHz RGB video signal onto a VGA 31kHz monitor by doubling horizontal frequency yet maintaining original resolutions.
It is still under advanced development stage.
If someone is interested about please send a PM.
Reservations and preorders are welcome (I suppose a cost of some tens of Euros for the final product).
