Generating VGA video with an Arduino Uno / Atmega16u2 Microcontroller.
**To Connect (atmega16u2):**
2015-04-08 07:24:07 +00:00
* 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).
