What is MonochromeVGA?

MonochromeVGA is a product to enjoy the charm of those monochrome monitors of the time but in the current video systems, and more specifically in your PC monitor. Although it could be connected to any TV, monitor or video system that has VGA inputs.

With switch to change color to monochrome and vice versa without disconnecting it.

Now with optional 3D case too, thanks to Agustin Gallego for designing it.

Features

Connecting it directly in a VGA output, it will bridge and convert the RGB signals to a passive equivalent luminance value with a few resistors, then you just have to select the monochrome output by combining the primary colors red, green and blue using the DIP switch.

Settings of simulated monitor (DIP Switch)

1: Red

2: Green (75%)

3: Blue

4: Green

Examples:

Green: OFF, OFF, OFF, ON

Amber: ON, ON, OFF, OFF

B&W: ON, OFF, ON, ON

What is provided?

Two types of kit or full Assembled device, now easier to solder thanks to the fact that all footprints are through hole, but thanks to the new design you can also choose a version with the passive SMD alternative components pre-soldered, which will help you with the task of assembling the other components of exclusive through hole technology.

fenomenal, perfecto. rapido el envio.

Todo perfecto lo unico que parece que antes se indicaba en la pcb instrucciones del dip y switch y ahora no. sera porque tambien se puede poner(recomendacion) en caja y al ir asi es una tonteria serigrafiar nada en la pcb porque no se veria al menos que la caja fuese de metacrilato/acrilico trasparente

lo que me hubiera gustado es que viniese con un pequeño papel (manual) con esas instrucciones de para que sirve el switch y dip

parece un buen profesional en las soldaduras, encantando.

mirare a ver si tiene alguna otro oshw que me encante y seguro que se lo compro

Gracias por la compra. Las instrucciones sobre el DIP switch son muy simples, tan simples, que creo que no requiere mas información que la que he dejado publicada en la descripción del artículo, donde lo indico. Este producto, como otros que he publicado, simplemente ha sido llevado a cabo a modo de hobby. Tienes información más técnica acerca del mismo en el enlace de hackaday.io indicado en la descripción.

En su día mi amigo Agustín Gallego diseñó una carcasa en 3D para contenerlo, pero la demanda no es tan alta para que compense seguir ofreciéndolas, por otro lado, es tan pequeño que no es posible usar una caja de metacrilato/acrílico.

No obstante, agradezco tu interés y espero que lo disfrutes.
