Connectors

Simulation

2:2:2 Resistor Simulation

• 3.3V Drive out of FPGA
• 1V is drive level for VGA specification
• 8 mA max drive current
• VGA presents a 75 Ohm load
• Series resistors present a voltage divider between the resistors on the card and the VGA load
• 1V at 75 Ohms is 13.3 mA
• Each color is independently driven
• The resistor with the smallest resistance value has larger current from the FPGA pin
• Current switches from source to sink depending on the voltages on the other resistors
• Use common value, 1% resistors
