TMS9929A VDP Rediscovery and Alternative Retro VRAM Solution

Post by Editor »

The TMS9929A / TMS9928A / TMMS9918A are Video Display Processors produced by Texas Instruments in the Retro 8-bit era of the early 1980’s.

They were used in a number of 80’s systems, including the ColecoVision, CreatiVision, SpectraVideo, MSX, and Texas Instruments own TI-99/4A Home Computer.

Join me as I rediscover my own TMS9929A experience from the 80’s, and recreate a TMS9929A circuit utilising the latest optimal video output, and go about designing an improved alternative Video RAM solution. You can find all this here: TMS9929A VDP Rediscovery and Alternative Retro VRAM Solution
