What is it?

Made by TinkerPlunk on Github, this device converts a SCART input to VGA. This is a passhtrough device, no upscaling is involved. What goes in,comes out the other end. Purpose is to create a HSync & VSync signal that your Monitor can read, and deliver to VGA.

Why did you make it?

I built this version to address pickier Monitors. Although it's a bit more expensive, it does not use the standard LM1881 Chip to split Syncs. Instead, I use a ISL59885 (properly attenuated Syncs) to deliver real H.Sync, which some Monitors need to be able to process and Sync properly. An example might be the Atari GoldStar SC1224 Monitor.

What makes it special?

Similar, much pricier devices (over $100 usually) deliver the same unique benefits. The ISL59885 which will deliver a proper H.Sync signal which some finicky monitors demand.
