Nios II VGA Controller with DMA

The Nios II VGA Controller with DMA is an SOPC Builder component which can be added to any SOPC Builder system to provide VGA display capability.



The controller is capable of displaying the following resolutions:

• 　　640 x 480

• 　　800 x 600

• 　　1024 x 768



All resolutions can be displayed in either 16 or 24-bit color. Resolution and color depth settings are configurable in the VGA Controller configuration wizard in SOPC Builder.



The controller was designed for use with the Lancelot daughter card, available Microtronix. The Lancelot card features a Texas Instruments THS8134 video digital to analog converter (DAC) with a VGA output connector, allowing display to a VGA monitor. Also on the card are two PS2 connectors and a 1/8”audio jack. The Lancelot card attaches to the prototype headers of Nios II development boards allowing it to be driven by FPGA pins.
