An Interesting Hack


old hack :)

It will be nice when something like that works by just shoving it in the sd slot however.
 
Yes it was, long time ago, but it is good to remind people of it, might inspire someone of a new mod :)
 
4-bit interface at 25mhz? Too little bandwidth for a GPU.

How about a barcode scanner, digital camera, tv tuner or fingerprint recognition?

I dunno. Running at a lower res at 256 colours you could probably rip off more than a frame every 1/50 sec.

Supposedly the 33x cards do 5M/sec, which is ~100k per frame (at 50Hz). Running at 320x200 (my favourite resolution :)) would require ~64k per frame at 256 colours.

Running at full throttle, the interface should be able to support a GPU, unless my math is completely wrong :) Not a great GPU mind, but a GPU :) Given a decent enough buffer on the card and you could probably do some very funky stuff with it.

Anyway, just pie in the sky :)
