Text Generation ECE 448 – FPGA and ASIC Design with VHDL 3
Text Generation Basics • Each character is treated as a tile • The patterns of the tiles constitute the font of the character set • We use an 8 x 16 font, similar to the one used in early IBM PCs • In this font each character is represented as an 8 x 16 pixel pattern • The character patterns are stored in the pattern memory, known as font ROM • For a 7 -bit ASCII we need 128 x 16 x 8 = 2 k x 8 ROM ECE 448 – FPGA and ASIC Design with VHDL 4
