Atari ST Xtreme adapter RGB to VGA (Monochrome/Color)
This is my version "Atari ST Xtreme adapter" of VGA adapter (ST LOW/MED color modes & High Res) with audio output for the Atari ST series of home computers.
Smaller and extremely reliable Atari video output to VGA adapter, that allows you to connect modern VGA monitors to your Atari (please remember that 15KHz compatible monitor is needed for Color mode)
Features convenient miniaturized slide switch,allowing you to change between color ST Low/Med and mono ST High video modes, on-fly.
Equipped also with buffering IC (Vertical and horizontal buffered) and thre is also jumper selector for Sync position (V+H or Csync if you want to use external upscaler GBS8200)
Contains sturdy 3,5mm jack socket with mono audio signal wired to both (L+R) channels. You can now plug your audio gear into it directly, without any additional cable.
Does not require power, does not stress your Atari video logic circuits.
KEY FEATURES:
Compatible with the following systems:
Compatible with: Atari 130ST, 260ST, 520ST/F/FM/E, 1040ST/F/FM/E, MegaST/E
Note: ST Low/Med color modes require 15kHz HSYNC capable monitor, such as Benq BL720A or similar. This is a design limitation of Atari video output, not Atari ST Xtreme adapter
OPTIONS AVAILABLE:
Very often not everyone is looking for an adapter complete with all features since Atari can also be used in Monochrome mode and without audio. Therefore here are some mounting possibilities
