For more than half a century, Moore’s Law has shaped the trajectory of technological progress, guiding the design and production of ever more powerful and affordable computers. However, as the semiconductor industry approaches fundamental physical limits, Moore’s Law is beginning to slow. In this post, we’ll explore the history, mathematics,... [Read More]

In this post, we’ll focus on optimizing the performance of our Gameboy Color emulator. Performance optimization is crucial for ensuring the emulator runs smoothly, with minimal lag, across a wide range of devices. Additionally, we’ll cover how to make the emulator more stable by managing resources effectively and preventing crashes.... [Read More]

In this post, we’ll dive into some critical systems of the Gameboy Color emulator: the Palette, Pixel Processing Unit (PPU), and Memory Bank Controllers (MBCs). These components are responsible for rendering the game’s colors, handling graphics output, and managing memory switching for larger game cartridges. [Read More]

In this post, we’re going to explore how graphics are rendered in the Gameboy Color emulator. We will dive into the Gameboy’s LCD display, VRAM, and the process of drawing tiles and sprites to the screen. This is a critical part of the emulator, as it is responsible for rendering... [Read More]

In this post, we’ll explore how to emulate the sound hardware of the Gameboy Color. The Gameboy uses multiple sound channels to generate different types of audio, and accurately reproducing this is key to making the emulator feel authentic. We’ll go over how sound channels work, how waveforms are generated,... [Read More]
