Gleix | Original Gameboy Variable Clock Speed Mod (Breakout box) // Gleix Devices @gleix_ | Uploaded August 2020 | Updated October 2024, 3 hours ago.
Grabbed an LTC1799 oscillator module and stuck it in a little case which can be connected up to the gameboy via 1/8" cable for the purposes of under and overclocking this gameboy I've been working on. It runs like normal without it plugged in, but with it plugged in you're able to use coarse and fine control knobs to drop it to a near-stop, or speed it up to about ~1.7x speed (~7.12Mhz ish; the gameboy runs at 4.19Mhz). It crashes any higher than that, so I made that the cutoff point. Also added a switch to let you pick between allowing a ~7.12Mhz max or a ~4.19Mhz max, so in a performance setting there's no need to fumble around for the proper speed after dropping it down. Fun for use in music, also a quality of life improvement for Pokemon :P
You can do it too! Info here: gleix.net/misc-toys-instruments
