Progress

- Display one repeat line (800 pixels) stored in ROM synthesized in FPGA.
- Self-display word block (designed).
- (Have problem on hardware integration) Preparing display a frame stored in SSRAM which is on Logic Module.
- Parameter:
- VBP/VFP (Vertical-Sync. back/front porch)
- HBP/HFP (Horizontal-Sync. back/front porch)
- PPL/LPP (Pixel Per Line/Line Per Panel)
- I design the width of synchronization to be auto-calculated by the way of how it display.

\:
- Improve:
- Efficiency of data transformation.
- Support more kinds of display.
- ..to be continued

- Decrease:
- Needed size of frame buffer.
- Chip area.
- ..to be continued
