Generating VGA video with an Arduino Uno / Atmega16u2 Microcontroller.
To Connect (atmega16u2):
- Connect all grounds on the VGA connector together.
- Connect VGA ground to the Arduino Gnd.
- Place a 120ohm resistor from the MOSI2 pin (Pin 4 on ICSP) to PB7 (Pin 4 on JP2)
- Connect the VGA red, blue and green inputs together and connect to PB7.
- Connect VGA vsync to PB5 (Pin 3 on JP2).
- Connect VGA hsync to PB4 (Pin 1 on JP2).
To Assemble:
- avr-as -mmcu=atmega16u2 -o ghettovga.o ghettovga.s
- avr-ld -m avr35 -o ghettovga.bin ghettovga.o
- avr-objcopy -j .text -j .data -O ihex ghettovga.bin vghettovga.hex
To Upload:
- Temporarily short pins 5 and 6 on the atmega16u2 ICSP header.
- dfu-programmer atmega16u2 erase
- dfu-programmer atmega16u2 flash "./ghettovga.hex"
- dfu-programmer atmega16u2 reset
To Restore Arduino Bootloader
- Temporarily short pins 5 and 6 on the atmega16u2 ICSP header.
- Retrieve the appropriate usb-serial hex from: http://bit.ly/1E3pMbU
- Use dfu-programmer to flash hex to atmega16u2
