This board is a replacement for the original SX-64 display controller board. The board became necessary during the rebuild of a SX-64 with a modern TFT-Display.
The SX-64 mod was initialized on the German Retro-Computer Board Forum64.de.
When one member (AREA51HD) began to tinker around with a TFT-Display.
The board also contains an Extended Reset Circuit and an option to switch between
two Kernals and two Drive IDs.
Proof of the ability to control all functions of the display.
In order to do this is it necessary to reprogram the MX25L4006E chip on the display PCB with the attached firmware.
However even with the regular Composite Video input of the TFT-Display-Set is the picture quality much better than the original CRT-Display of the SX-64.
The power consumption stays always way below 0.5 amps.
The original CRT display with the build in amplifier and speaker consumes up to 1.1 amps.
