Notes

The second-generation F18A: the same idea - an FPGA reimplementation of the TMS9918A video chip, pin-compatible with the original - carried further.

What the family does

  • Replaces the video chip in a ColecoVision, ADAM, TI-99/4A, MSX1 or similar machine, in the original socket.
  • Outputs a clean digital picture to a modern display instead of a composite signal built for a television.
  • Removes the four-sprites-per-line limit that makes so many games of the era flicker.
