-Early microcomputers used CRT displays driven by TTL level control signals+Early microcomputers used CRT displays driven by TTL level control signals. There was monochrome TTL, monochrome Hercules TTL (different sync frequencies, with bit mapped graphics), and CGA/EGA compatible TTL. 
 + 
 +===== TTL from VGA Port ===== 
 +Driving TTL from VGA from a RaspberryPi 3 (( [[https://www.reddit.com/r/retrobattlestations/comments/5jslch/raspberry_pi_running_ibm5151_monitor_via_hdmivga/]])): 
 + 
 +Wire VGA green to the video input and let the monitor chop off the values on it's own (it's a TTL display).

 +|HD15|13|->|DE9|8| 
 +|HD15|14|->|DE9|9|

 +Video settings from /boot/config.txt:

 +---- 
 +Others say: 
 +http://old.pinouts.ru/Video/MDA_pinout.shtml combine RGB signals on the VGA connector together with, say, 330 ohm resistors. Connect H-sync on VGA to H-sync on MDA, same for V-sync, and connect the ground and the MDA intensity line to ground. 
 + 
 +VGA outputs are supposed to be 0.7v (probably higher on some implementations without a proper 75 ohm load though) and MDA is TTL logic level, where >2.4V is considered a high, <.8 is considered a low, and in between is undefined....
