LAVA 10 SVGA Graphics Controller

LAVA 10 is a SVGA Graphics Controller based on FPGA module (made by Propox sp. z o.o.) designed for use in embedded systems. Main task of this device is taking over most of complex operations related with displaying graphics from main processor. May be used with the Evalaution Board.

Features:

• 3-in-1 Integrated SVGA Display Controller, SDRAM Controller, Flash Memory Controller
• displaying 65536 colors (RGB565) in SVGA (800x600) resolution (60Hz) – perfect for use with LCD Monitors
• Xilinx Spartan 3 (XC3S200)
• 32 MB SDRAM memory for storing frames (2 buffers) and for general purposes (not necessary related with graphics)
• 8 MB Flash memory for storing non-volatile data (fonts, icons, pictures etc.)
• embedded Character Generator (Code page 437 based characters)
• outputs for Video DAC
• fast 8-bit interface for bidirectional communication (can be connected to any host controller .3.3V)
• reprogrammable via JTAG interface (adding new hardware functions, using module for other FPGA based projects etc.)
• single low power design: 3.0-3.6V supply
• prepared for use directly in the application or with the evaluation board
• simple instruction set (library written in C is available)
