Display Processor

This is an inexpensive and small serial terminal design. This design can drive 80x25 text and graphics displays. This design is based on Grant Searle's Monitor and keyboard controllers. This design has been implemented on two cards, this card and Serial I/O Processor - which is the other half of this terminal.

Here's Grant's schematic:

Searle-DisplayProc.gif

Video controller specification

  • Very easy to interface to, fast and requires no host/external memory
  • Character set
  • Full "CGA" (8x8) character definitions as used on the IBM PC (DOS).
  • Screen size
    • Text - 80x25, 40x25, 80x12, 40x12, Graphics 160x100 or ANY mix (defined per 1 of 25 rows)
  • Resolution
    • 640x200 for 80 char text
    • 160x100 for graphics
  • Fonts
    • Font sizes are defined for each line
    • All chars on the same line have the same font size and style
  • Graphics
    • Any part of the active screen, up to 160x100 pixels
    • Each pixel individually addressable
    • Defined on any of the 25 screen lines
  • Video output
    • Standard composite monochrome video
    • PAL or NTSC timing
    • Non-interlaced so no flicker
  • Display memory
    • 2000 chars internal + 25 line attributes - no host memory needed
    • Very fast update and scrolling whichever interface is used
  • Interface
    • 8 bit data bus (requires 10 I/O pins)
    • 4 bit data bus (requires 6 I/O pins)
  • two-wire (I2C) uses only 2 pins
    • I2C (thanks to Dave Curran for his guidance and code on this) supports low (100KHz) and high (400KHz) speed clocks or higher (1MHz or more easily achievable).
  • Hardware
    • Very low cost - two chips - ATmega328 and 74HCT166 (Shift Register)
  • Connectors
    • J1 - Video Connector
    • RCA Jack
    • Center is signal
    • Outside is ground

Serial I/O Processor This is an inexpensive and small serial terminal design. This design can drive 80x25 text and graphics displays. This design is based on Grant Searle's Monitor and keyboard controllers. This design has been implemented on two cards, this card and Display Processor - which is the other half of this terminal.

Here's Grant's schematic:

Features

  • Serial interface
  • Fully buffered 115200 baud, handshake on receive, TTL levels.
  • Keyboard interface
  • PC PS/2 standard keyboard connector, accepts standard keyboards made for PCs. Keyboard LED illumination implemented, and allows for caps lock and num lock.

Hardware

  • Two cards
  • 8-bit interface connector for card-to-card connections

Connectors

P1 - Card Interconnect

  • 2x8 header, 0.1" pitch
  • Connector matches the pinout of the other card so it can be mated directly to the other card via 1:1 cable or a female header on this card
