Low cost, high speed data acquisition over HDMI (osmodevcon2024)

Published: May 5, 2024, 10:30 a.m.

Through a reverse-engineering effort it is possible to (ab)use a combination of cheap USB 3.2 HDMI video grabbers based on the Macrosilicon MS2130 in combination with small FPGA dev boards like the Sipeed Tang nano series (both ~10 USD each) to capture arbitrary data by connecting them via an HDMI cable. This can be used as a low cost, high speed logic analyzer, ADC capture, DIY SDR etc.\nabout this event: https://pretalx.sysmocom.de/osmodevcon2024/talk/UBCQFC/
