    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 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 Memory Interface and Video Attribute Controller (MIVAC) is inserted between a dynamic RAM (DRAM) capable of a consecutive data read operation, such as the operation associated with the static column mode, page mode, or nibble mode, and a graphic processor to provide a parallel data processing. A serial data transfer is executed on each data bus between the MIVAC and the DRAM, whereas parallel data transfer is conducted between the MIVAC and the graphic processor. As a result, the graphic processor can be configured with a reduced number of DRAMs so that the graphic processor operates without paying attention to the consecutive data read mode of the DRAM.

    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: Disclosed is a method of controlling the supply of a clock signal to a logic circuit, especially, a logic circuit composed of C-MOS gates for further reducing the power consumption. According to the control method, a clock signal supply inhibit instruction is stored, so that, when this instruction is read out, the supply of the clock signal to the logic circuit is inhibited, or its level is fixed at a specific signal level. In response to the application of an interrupt signal, the clock signal having been inhibited to be supplied to the logic circuit starts to be supplied to the logic circuit again. The circuit region or regions for which the supply of the clock signal is to be inhibited can be freely selected for the purpose of control. Thus, the method is especially effective when it is desired to closely control the saving of power consumed by the logic circuit.
