GBA screen pinout

If you're making a portable you probably need something to watch it on. (Unless you want to guess what's happening in the game, but I wouldn't advise that) Anyway, this forum is your "Hacking a pocket TV/screen" one-stop solution. Share your experiences and knowledge here.

GBA screen pinout

Post by gzidude »

Can anybody provide me with the game boy advance pinout for the replacement screen? Yes I know this is going to be time consuming. I am a computer engineer and customized video signals are no stranger to me. I need a project to keep me occupied for a little while and I have one of those screens. If I have any ambition left by the end, I will build my own board for a clean sleek design.

Looks like at the minimum you will need some kind of programmable logic to keep up with the timing requirements, probably an FPGA.

Thanks for the link. I've already got an FPGA to play with. This is going to be fun.
