VGA DAC

I have been working on a project using my FPGA that needs video. Since the manufacturer of the FPGA has not yet completed the HDMI shield, I needed a quick way to get video. After failing to properly solder the SMD DAC, I decided to make a simple through-hole resistor DAC.

There are 4 bits per color, giving a possible 4,096 colors (I think).

Here is a color picker showing the available colors.

Here is the link to the project in the Open-Source Hardware Lab:
