    摘要: A graphic processor which controls reading, writing and transfer of graphic data for a display memory that stores graphic data. The processor includes a first unit which stores first address information for addressing the display memory and first pixel address information which points a pixel position in a word specified by the first address information, a second unit which stores second address information for addressing the display memory and second pixel address information which points a pixel position in a word specified by the second address information, a third unit which shifts graphic data of multiple pixels included in two consecutive words to extract continuous 1-word graphic data, and a fourth unit which implements drawing computations pixel-wise concurrently for one word depending on the number of pixels included in a word. Even if transfer source graphic data lies across two consecutive words, the processor fetches the source data in single reading, processes the data word-wise at once, and stores the result in the display memory.

    摘要: In an image displaying field where there is a tendency which will increase the data to be handled in accordance with the high integration of a display device, a CRT controller according to the present invention improves the superposed display and the responsiveness of the display and drawing operations by dividing a unit clock into a predetermined number to function with high speed and a multifunction display. When image data are to be inputted to or outputted from a refresh memory corresponding to a display frame, the memory content and the display address are assigned at a ratio of 1:n to effect the processings in parallel. As a result, the time period utilized by the display cycle of the prior art can be assigned to the drawing operation so that the processing can be speeded up while making it easier than the prior art to effect the superposed display of letters, symbols and drawings. The resultant effect is that it is unnecessary to increase the number of refresh memories corresponding to the displayed frame and that the external parts can be simplified to contribute to the improvement in the reliability.

    摘要: A microprogram control system in which the processing speed of a microprogram is increased and the capacity of the microprogram memory is reduced. The decoder previously provided in microprogram control systems to decode the contents of the instruction register are omitted to attain an increased processing speed and the instruction decoding function is integrated into the microprogram memory to attain a general purpose control system. The microprogram memory is divided into pages each consisting of a plurality of words, so that an arbitrary page can be designated as an instruction decode area under the control of the microprogram. Error checking in the system is facilitated by providing a check function for readout error, and a short word memory device is used to reduce the memory capacity of the microprogram memory.
