Add VGA and a fast Z80 CPU to your Apple II with this open source project

We’re taking a look at the V2 Analog, an awesome open source (OSS/OSH) project for the Apple II to give the machine not only VGA output but a high speed Z80 for CPM, all in a small open source card using easily obtainable parts. The card also has a lot of potential to be able to add all sorts of additional functionality to the Apple II, all just with firmware updates! --- Video Links V2 Analog Github: AppleII-VGA: (V2 Analog is based on this project) Purchase a V2 Analog on Tindie: V2 Analog Project page: PCPI Applicard information: Fractal Basic Benchmarks: VCF East: Adrian’s Digital Basement Merch store: Adrian’s Digital Basement ][ (Second Channel) Support the channel on Patreon: -- Tools Deoxit D5: O-Ring Pick Set: (I use these to lift chips off boards) Elenco Electronics LP-560 Logic Probe: Hakko FR301 Desoldering Iron: Rigol DS1054Z Four Channel Oscilloscope: Head Worn Magnifying Goggles / Dual Lens Flip-In Head Magnifier: TL866II Plus Chip Tester and EPROM programmer: (The MiniPro) TS100 Soldering Iron: EEVBlog 121GW Multimeter: DSLogic Basic Logic Analyzer: Magnetic Screw Holder: Universal ZIP sockets: (clones, used on my ZIF-64 test machine) RetroTink 2X Upconverter: (to hook up something like a C64 to HDMI) Plato (Clone) Side Cutters: (order five) Heat Sinks: Little squeezy bottles: (available elsewhere too) --- Links My GitHub repository: Commodore Computer Club / Vancouver, WA – Portland, OR – PDX Commodore Users Group --- Instructional videos My video on damage-free chip removal: --- Music Intro music and other tracks by: Nathan Divino @itsnathandivino
