From Chunin Roman To All 14 October 2005

Hello, CheburatoR Che> While developing my clone (from Leningrad1) Spectrum I encountered a problem Che> video signal, namely, I tried two PAL encoder chips tda8501 and Che> ad724 came to the conclusion that something is wrong :mad: well, how about it - the video was made Che> through... in short, non-compliance with the PAL standard, the problem was solved by using Che> 64Kb rom chip, flashing the correct signal diagrams, and lo and behold Che> everything is now perfect - PC tv card on bt878 which even did not understand Che> now shows frame synchronization as it should :smile: attaching Che> diagram (for an idea of the correct signals) and how it looks on Che> PS monitor. If there is any interest, I can give you a revision plan Well, no wonder! Of the clones, in my opinion, KAI and ATM more or less meet the standard, the rest are a complete anus, especially at the Pentagon.

Hello, All While developing my clone (from Leningrad1) Spectrum I encountered a video problem signal, namely, I tried two PAL encoder chips tda8501 and ad724 I came to the conclusion that something was wrong :mad: well, how about it - the video was made through... in short, non-compliance with the PAL standard, the problem was solved by using a rom chip 64Kb, with the correct signal diagrams flashed, and lo and behold, everything is now perfect - PC TV card on bt878 which did not even understand frame synchronization now shows how it should be :smile: I’m attaching a diagram (to give an idea of correct signals) and how it looks on the monitor PS.

Hello, CHRV Che> PS. If there is any interest, I can give you a revision plan To the studio! And by the way, how did you get the third picture? Where did the correct diagrams come from? signals conforming to the PAL standard? (I could only find NTSC so far) The keyboard has been coolly redesigned!!! It looked like it was made of film (???), exactly how it was remade??? (I want to look at the photo from the back side).

It looked like it was made of film (???), fan> exactly how it was redone??? fan> I was specifically looking for a keyboard with rubber buttons, with a film one - this is the approach unsuitable. the principle is simple - 8x5 matrix +19 additional buttons, like keys I used bu4066 chips (I had them on hand) about modification - you need one microcircuit like 27C512 (better with less time access, I have 70ns) into which the attached rom.bin file is flashed, should work for Leningad1 and similar clones, numbering of legs for the body PLCC32 according to the Leningrad1 scheme: BORDER instead of D13-6 SYNC instead of D11-6 BLANK instead of D36-15 in principle, you can also attach an INT signal until you change it as a result of the rework, several logical elements are freed File: PA141778.jpg http://zx.pk.ru/attachment.php?attachmentid=1813 File: dorabotka.jpg http://zx.pk.ru/attachment.php?attachmentid=1814File: rom.rar http://zx.pk.ru/attachment.php?attachmentid=1815

From Andrey Vorontsov To All 9 February 2006

Hello, CheburatoR I wonder if anyone else besides me has done this subject? I agree, int and border work correctly (but the signal from the border must be sent exclusively to KP13), but the screen is shifted VERY much to the right, even more than on the "original" Leningrad-1 (which, in fact, I remade), and if on In the “normal” scheme the screen is simply shifted, but with this ROM the left is black vertical stripe. Tested on Samsung LCD via Scart-RGB. On Samsung with There is no CRT row synchronization at all. :( Gentlemen, can anyone give me some advice about shifting the entire screen to the left? Maybe What was floating around the forum earlier, but I can’t find it? I really don’t want everything screw it into the ass and remove the ROM. Respect to everyone in advance.

From CheburatoR To All 9 February 2006

Hello, CheburatoR By the way, my project is slowly but progressing :), I recently finished the “video” board", H0..H7, V0..V7, ROM for int, blank, sync and PAL are generated on the board encoder, now I’m installing a “cpu board” - like mainboard, then it’s planned generalsaound, flash card with USB File: zx_video_board.jpg http://zx.pk.ru/attachment.php?attachmentid=2570

From CheburatoR To All 9 February 2006

Hello rw6hrm rw6> Gentlemen, who can tell me something about shifting the entire screen rw6> to the left? Most likely the problem is in the line frequency, it should be 15.625 khz, counters H0..H7 should change from 0..255, and on the border from 64 to 255, it turns out 7Mhz/448=15.625 Khz, in the diagram it’s how it’s done for me File: h0-h7.jpg http://zx.pk.ru/attachment.php?attachmentid=2569

From Andrey Vorontsov To All 9 February 2006

Hello, CheburatoR Beautiful, you can't say anything... compared to my tangle of wires :) Yes, also - (most likely this is due to the high-speed ROM, I have 45ms access, also Vinbond, but deepovsky) on a piper through each half of the familiarity thin vertical line - where to throw the conder to tighten up the rear?

From Andrey Vorontsov To All 9 February 2006

Hello, CheburatoR So, in comparison with my diagram (like the one posted on SBlive.narod.ru) I found differences in D4 with 1 and 10 legs. ...damn, I didn’t even think about it, the first original has been lying around since 1989, the screen in it was also completely moved, now in remake created the same trick... By the way, if anyone still has real under nickname "Vesta IK-30" produced by the Stavropol "Signal", then it contains the same shift, most likely for the same reason...

From CheburatoR To All 9 February 2006

Hello rw6hrm I also did the same at first according to the Leningrad scheme, then I redid it, but 100% I’m not sure that this is a mistake in the Leningrad scheme (is everything really so secretive in the original :confused: ), regarding the black dots - try soldering about 15-60 pf between blank and ground By the way, the position of the screen can also be changed by firmware, left to right up and down, also the duration and location of the signals, using the blank signal For example, you can make an original black light inscription on the border :)

Hello, CheburatoR Che> by the way, my project is slowly but progressing, I just finished it Che> "video board" Cool :) Is this done for a specific case?

From CheburatoR To All 9 February 2006

Hello fan fan> Cool Is this done for a specific case? yes, under the old building in which my second Leningrad was located1 kgb> Share your experience, how do you make boards? Very beautiful for an iron kgb> turns out. Or an iron? Generally speaking, I don’t really like the technology, but for me it’s more interesting to do it doing it yourself, it’s still more expensive in terms of money and time than ordering

From Roman Mindlin To All 9 February 2006

Hello, CheburatoR Che> I recently finished the "video board"..., now I'm building the "cpu board" Share your experience, how do you make boards? It turns out very nicely for an iron. Or iron?

Hello, CheburatoR Che> generally an iron, I don’t really like the technology but it’s more interesting for me Che> to do it yourself, it’s still more expensive in terms of money and time than Che> order As I understand it, you lay out the board in EDA - print it on a laser - etch it - drill it - you solder.. 1. What size is the pad in the EDA (yours are round)? 2. What size is the hole in the EDA? 3. Can't you metallize the holes? 4. How wide is the track in EDA? 5. Is the track covering Rose alloy? 6. How do you combine the top and bottom patterns when heating with an iron? It didn't turn out too bad for me either. True, single-sided boards and from a ready-made BMP file. I tried to make a double-sided one, but it turned out to be a displacement of the top and bottom sides with all the consequences.....

From Roman Mindlin To All 10 February 2006

Hello, CheburatoR Che> generally with an iron What do you print on, very interesting? I mean on what paper?

From Alexander Zan To All 10 February 2006

Hello, kgbplus And I’m also interested in what specific paper and printer. Lately It doesn’t work for me... apparently the printers are strange, very economical...

From CheburatoR To All 10 February 2006

Hello andreil and> And what microcircuits are used in your circuit, maybe I’ll order a board. 1. domestic microcircuits, except 64kb ROM from winbond in PLCC32 package, and fell ad724 encoder from Analog Devices 2. I do not accept custom fees 3. what will you do with it? it connects exclusively to the "ZX128 CPU board", everything I do is for myself, I make it from what I have lying around at home and not based on cheap mass production PS it is not yet known whether this board works at all :D When I make the CPU Board and fix all the glitches then I’ll post the diagrams and wiring if someone will ask

From Dobrynin Sergey To All 10 February 2006

Hello fan fan> And I’m also interested in what specific paper and printer. Last fan> I'm running out of time... apparently the printers are weird fan> very economical... kgb> What do you print on, very interesting? I mean, on what paper? I tried it on different LaserJets without an economy mode, the paper was glossy thin from magazines, the white part is better, but it can be printed, just not on pictures..... printed things are washed out worse. If possible to buy thin coated paper, then this is the most haymaking! In the attachment what I got... File: DSC01158_resize.JPG http://zx.pk.ru/attachment.php?attachmentid=2578

From Dobrynin Sergey To All 10 February 2006

Hello, kgbplus kgb> Well, it's just beautiful. If it’s not difficult, describe your technology in detail. To avoid flaming here, I’ll create a thread in “Flame” http://zx.pk.ru/showthread.php?p=38573#post38573

From Roman Mindlin To All 10 February 2006

Hello, do_se do_> In the attachment, what worked for me... Well, just beauty. If it’s not difficult, describe your technology in detail.

From andreil To All 10 February 2006

Hello, do_se And what microcircuits are used in your circuit, maybe I’ll order a board.

From Andrey Vorontsov To All 10 February 2006

Hello andreil I re-soldered the counter as suggested - everything moved wildly to the left :( and the inscriptions began to flicker. I don’t even understand anything, Cheburator, plz, make a personal comment operating principles of D3 and D4, as well as the algorithm for generating horizontal pulses in your ROM. Thank you in advance By the way, Conder on the border does not save you from vertical stripes...
