VGA32_16BPP - Wishbone 32-bit VGA Controller with 16bpp Data Support

Frozen Content

Figure 1. VGA32_16BPP - Wishbone 32-bit VGA Controller with 16bpp Data Support.

The VGA32_16BPP Controller provides a simple, 32-bit interface between a host processor and any VGA-compatible monitor. The Controller fetches 16bpp-formatted data from external video memory and displays it on a connected monitor.

Features at-a-glance

  • Compatible with any standard VGA- or SVGA-compatible monitor
  • Independent Wishbone Master and Pixel clock inputs
  • Supports monitor screen resolutions up to 800x600
  • Supports monitor refresh rates up to 75Hz
  • Fixed color quality of 16bpp
  • Configurable output synchronization levels
  • Composite output
  • 3 interrupt outputs (HSync, VSync, Blank).

Availability

From an OpenBus System document, the VGA32_16BPP Controller can be found in the Peripherals region of the OpenBus Palette panel.

From a schematic document, the VGA32_16BPP Controller is available by placing and configuring a WB_VGA - Configurable Wishbone Display Driver. This component can be found in the FPGA Peripherals (Wishbone) integrated library (FPGA Peripherals (Wishbone).IntLib), located in the \Library\Fpga folder of the installation.
