Improved RGB-Pi adapter for use with RGB-Pi OS.
Based on open schematic published by mortaca.
Original RGB-Pi documentation: www.mortaca.com/docs/wiki
Changes:
- Added VGA (DSUB-15) 15 kHz connector (Warning: 31 kHz VGA monitors not supported).
- Proper sync combiner, borrowed from from BKM-129X clone board, see also KabukiFlux's RGBpi cable sync mixer.
- Improved R-2R RGB DAC.
- PWM audio buffered with SN74LVC2G34 Dual Buffer Gate powered from PS7A2033 Ultra-Low-Noise LDO, with separate analog ground, in order to reduce Raspberry Pi internal power noise.
- Added 3.5 mm audio jack connector.
