Latency: Less than 1ms
This tiny, power-packed module takes in a VGA or Component signal (depending on the version) and outputs an HDMI™ signal with an embedded analog or SPDIF audio front-end for use in your smallest of projects. This design is a higher quality, smaller, and more efficient version of the widely available analog-to-digital modules that are available online. If you are not happy with those modules, then you will absolutely be happy with these.
The VGA-input mode can accept any resolution from VGA to UXGA and does not provide any internal scaling of the image. The Component-input mode can accept any resolution video signal up to 1080p60 and does not provide any internal scaling of the image.
This board can take in either SPDIF or analog audio. The SPDIF audio format can be Dolby 5.1 Surround Sound and it is embedded over the video output for use with any surround sound system connected to your TV.
This device typically consumes <300mA in all use cases; however, you should test this design in your system before designing a specific regulator.
- Supports 480i/p, 576i/p, 720p25/30/50/60, 1080i50/60, 1080p24/25/30/50/60.
- Supports RGB graphics from VGA to UXGA

Latency
We used a Time Sleuth to measure the latency that this module adds during its analog-to-digital conversion.
All measurements were done with a 7" Loncevon HDMI monitor with the Time Sleuth output resolution set to 1080p @ 60Hz.
i used this mod on a gbs control after having trouble with compatibility with the HDMI VGA converter i was using temporarily. I heard about the HDMI Mod from Macho Nacho on youtube and think it made a much cleaner solution to add native HDMI to the project. With how small the board is i was able to mount it using some m2 standoffs to the orginal GBS8200 board using the unpopulated VGA port which worked great for my set up. s previously said i had trouble getting as alternative controller to work with some of my consoles through the GBS control when using an alternative controller but this worked straight away and with noticeably less interference on the picture/ with how simple it is to fit i can't recommend it enough. (I know there is a dedicated GBS control HDMI mod available as well from Electron Sheppard but my board revision in not compatible so i opted for the generic version)
Perfect
So just like the PS2 Phat, I have installed this into my Dreamcast, and it's amazing how good it looks.
I have also put together a diagram to help others, and as you can see, I removed the serial port, as I never used it anyway.
Thanks again Electron Shepherd and next I will look at doing this mod to other consoles and of course I will post a Diagram here :P
The installation is easy enough and the picture looks great. Unfortunately, it was extremely difficult to mount this securely in an OEM PS2 slim shell. I created an external mounting box for this without too much trimming of the OEM Shell (and you get to keep the network connection!), you can find it at https://www.printables.com/model/1414770-electron-analog-hdmi-external-box
Fantastic product!
Easy install, and I made a little diagram to help others.
I also designed a 3D print for easy mounting that uses one of the power board screws.

Great item for its value. Did not disappoint.
Ho acquistato 2 unità e va alla grande niente da invidiare agli upscaler convenzionali. Ho acquistato questo convertitore grazie al video pubblicato da Macho Nacho, ed alla fine del suo video ho visto che lui aveva entrato in una specie di menù di configurazione ma non ha spiegato come entrare.
Qualcuno sa come fare? Serve fare una sorta di combinazione dei tasti con El controller???
