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