Proxima (All in ONE VINTAGE COMPUTER/ARCADE emulator)

Proxima Arcade Board

Can emulate any vintage hardware up to mid 90s of XX century!

Single board FPGA based multimedia platform, can act as:

  • Stand-alone emulator

  • Modular emulator for very large scale computer systems

Inside FPGA user has a “sandbox” surrounded by the IP modules supporting the memory, video and audio connectivity

Sophisticated HOST uC provides the link to USB, SDHC and networking functions (WIFI)

Emulator status is depicted on the OLED DISPLAY in REAL-TIME

HOST uC simplifies the OTA ISP DFU

Board has the high precision analog VCO and sync separator for orchestrated HDMI genlock to multiply/split the video output up to 100Kx100K resolution

● Procyon can emulate:

  • All the antique computers based on 8 and 16 bit processors like (Intel I8080, I8085, I8088, I8086, I80186, I80286, Zilog Z80, Z80S180, MOS 6502, 65816, Motorola 680x)....

  • Most of the PCs of 90s based on 32 bit processors (Motorola 68xxx, Intel 80386, 80486, MIPS RISC R3000, ARM 7S TDMI)

  • Some workstations based on 64 bit processors like R4000

  • 8/16/32 bit game consoles
