Might any of you have technical information from back in the day for the early Genesis Microchip SOCs (for TFT monitors) that used the 8051 core?
ST Microelectronics purchased Genesis back in 2008 and continued with the later x86 based display processors, but finding information on the old 8051 based stuff is tough. If anyone has any original docs for the gm2110/2121/3110/5110/5115 I would love to get a copy. In particular I'm really after:
(Genesis document numbers, description)
C5115-DSL-01 gm5115 Register Listing
C5115-APB-01 gm5115 Product Family On-chip Microcontroller (OCM) Firmware Configurations
B0108-GUD-01 5110RD1 Reference Design Users Guide
B0092-SUG-01 gm5115 Product Family Firmware User Guide for Full-Custom
"Holy Grail" type things would be the old 8051/Keil C based source tree and/or any of the GProbe Register Database stuff. (The GProbe stuff would likely be something like "gm5115.Chip.GProbe" and/or "gm5115.chm" files.)
Anyway, if any of you happened to work with this stuff back in the day and kept copies or had any ideas/leads for more info, please let me know! Being from around ~2002 I think a lot of it was "too late for databooks" and "too early for online preservation". The deeper technical stuff was probably on an as-needed basis and there's really nothing by high-level datasheets and product briefs from old archive.org crawls of the Genesis website.
I already have a request in with ST (that I'm not holding out much hope for) and I mined the Chinese file-pirate dens as thoroughly as I could (mostly newer x86 based stuff).
Thanks!
