I made a #retroComputer terminal with RP2040. It drives a paperwhite VGA display at 60Hz, presenting a 132x53 line text mode. Here's a little video about it. Source code: https://github.com/jepler/cr100
Note: the VO says "7H1" is one of the serial modes, but of course I mis-read "7N1" (7 bits, no parity, 1 stop bit) in my haste. 🤣
