Using internal RAM with Spartan 3E - VGA data

[pezevall]

spartan 3e vga

Hi there. I've been working with my Xilinx Spartan-3E starter kit for a few months now and have learned the foundations. Currently I'm trying to figure out memory so I can store simple data for VGA [8 colors for an 640x480 display].

This board has DDR SDram and I believe it's also fairly common to use block memory within the FPGA.

Can anybody pinpoint me to the right direction here?

Many thanks in advance
Pedro

how to ram internal spartan 3e

Hi,
u can start experimenting with BlockRAM using Core Generator and start custimizing the parameters, its simple, moreover if u want detailed information, plz check xilinx application note 'xapp463' from xilinx.

thanks

spartan-3e internal ram

because there are only 8 colors, your can store them into registers directly.

best regards
