Some ideas for Minimig improvements:
| Project name | Basic | Comment |
|---|---|---|
| Minimig Selftest | Y | |
| Graphics | N | More games possible to run |
| Harddisc | Y | Larger software installations possible. |
| Ethernet | ? | Rid of the need for flashmemories? & Network boot. |
| Use SDram | Y | Memory hungry software becomes possible. And developer board have dram builtin. |
| Shared MCU/FPGA RS232 | Y | One less jumper.. |
| NTSC | Y | NTSC monitors can be used. |
| S-Video Resistor D/A issues etc.. | Y | |
| Breakout pinheaders | Y | More installation flexibility |
| MCU user I/O | Y | Wire the unused MCU (pic18xxxx) ports to a user I/O pin header |
| Kickstart replacement | N | Rid of Amiga Inc dependency. |
| Discimage support .ADF .DMS .FDI .ADZ | N | ADF is not sufficient for some copyprotected discs |
| Expansion via Zorro ISA PCI PCI-Express | N | Make use of old hardware |
| Upgrade the FPGA | Y | More logic & I/O pins |
| HDL devices | N | Devices in HDL languages - needs no hardware |
| Create a real floppy controller | N | Make disc images for Minimig (see Amiga floppy project) |
| Simulate Atari ST, Mac-68k etc.. | N | |
| Realtime clock | N | Get correct dates on your disc files |
| Parallel port | N | Play multiplayer, Printer, Parnet etc.. |
| USB | N | |
| Faster CPU | N | mc68020 -> can run NetBSD |
| CPU in verilog/vhdl | N | Makes running Minimig on a stock FPGA developer board possible |
| Wikipedia:FPGA | N | FPGAs with CPU onchip |
| Minimig 68K CPU BERR* Support | Y | For 68K BERR* Vector when non-existant memory accessed |
