There is considerable interest in retro computing including the early Industry Standard Architecture cards.

This shield implements an ISA slot with the following features:

  • I/O ports are memory mapped into the Arduino MEGA address space.
  • On card memory is mapped into a window in Arduino MEGA address space.
  • Interrupts are mapped to Arduino MEGA input pins to generate real hardware interrupts.
  • The ISA DMA engine and refresh controller are emulated.

The success critera for this project include correct operation of the AdLib, SoundBlaster, Gravis UltraSound, and CGA/EGA/VGA cards.
