About this Device

Installed in my 3d printed MiniLisa case with a cropped 11.6" 1080p LCD (9.7" viewable).

Historical Notes

LisaFPGA is a cycle-accurate FPGA recreation of the Apple Lisa's logic board (Xilinx Artix-7 XC7A100T), designed as a 1:1 hardware-compatible reimplementation rather than an emulator — it runs original Lisa ROMs and OS software (LOS, MacWorks, Xenix, etc.) with real-time, gate-level-equivalent behavior, including the Z8530 SCC, ProFile/Twiggy-style storage emulation via onboard ESP32 modules (ESProFile, ESFloppy), and native HDMI video output in place of the original analog CRT signal.
