Description: The vLA81 is a modern plugin replacement for the Sinclair ZX81 ULA. As they simply don't make ZX81 ULAs anymore, then unfortunately if the ULA has failed (and there's not much else on a ZX81 to fail), then options for repair are rapidly diminishing. The vLA81 provides a simple way to keep these icons of 80's computing going. Apart from providing the functionality of both the earlier 2C158E/184 ULA (without back porch) and the 2C210E (with back porch), the vLA81 also has a few extras added.vLA81 features: Fits within the same 40 pin DIL socket outline as the original ULA. Narrow IC pins for easy plugin ULA replacement. In most cases the existing socket will be OK (unless, of course, the existing ULA is soldered in). Provides the same functionality as the 2C210E Sinclair ULA. Video level selectable between standard video (suitable for direct connection to a 75 ohm monitor input) and high sync level (suitable for the modulator input or some video mod boards). Back porch on/off select. Internal 32K memory support (High or Low for the different hires schemes). Programmable user configuration gives access to: Inverse or normal video and choice of black or white border. 50/60 Hz video standard. Ability to map ram to the ROM space (write protect enable/disable – 32K internal ram required). Tested with an extensive suite of ZX81 software. Ideal for preserving the original ZX81 ULA. Low power consumption. IF YOU HAVE ANY QUESTIONS, PLEASE DON'T HESITATE TO CONTACT ME! Thanks for looking at our auctions! HAPPY BUYING!
