Does anyone have info about this card? What was used for? |

dual serial card? dump the ROM and check for details 🙂 |

Some kind of Black and white video card. |

Use tattletech to see what it reports as. There isn't much to go on. The big chip is an FPGA or a CPLD, so there isn't really any branding visible other than the ROM name, which isn't something obvious. |

Is there anything written on the back @slomacuser? |

I note a telltale MICRO CONV custom IC, which @finkmac observed on a different board on this thread. |

As said on fb, I would say that it is a NuBUS version of Memory Plus video cards as it ressemble to my MODAM SE PDS one :

Looks like you were right 🙂 |

Glad to know 🙂 I’m almost jealous now 😅
If you need drivers, you can try the one I backed up on the garden |

So if I connect it to standard apple monitor would it work? |
Posted by: zefrenchtoon on 2026-06-08 12:39:35
Maybe, hence the DA-15 connector if I’m not wrong.
About the driver, it seems to manage 15 and 21" but not 19. 😕

Well it does not work with apple 13” monitor. Anyway If any interested in this card I can sell it, I do not need it as I have supermac ones… |

Anyway If any interested in this card I can sell it, I do not need it as I have supermac ones… Yeah, it is probably fixed timings for a specific 19" monitor. You might have better luck with a late model multisync CRT or very flexible LCD (some ViewSonics and HPs will work with just about any signal).
Does it show the monitor resolution in TattleTech or Monitors? |

Also, as said @finkmac you should dump the ROM to extend this collection and enhance these tools:

well then I need a guide for dummies as I am not familiar with extracting ROMs 🙁 |

well then I need a guide for dummies as I am not familiar with extracting ROMs 🙁 Try SlotsGrab or SlotsMem from https://github.com/joevt/SlotsDump
They create a file or files in the same directory as the app so maybe rename them after they are created so you know where or when they came from. |
