CSCE 587 Microprocessor Design and Synthesis
Homework 4 –RAM, Tile Graphics and Sprite Generation
Assignment (150):
Perform the following tasks and submit homework to doug@sidechannel.net. Zip all files into a
single file named <lastname>-hw04.zip. Strive to keep final zip file as small as possible. (Don’t send
multi-MB pics – shrink/reduce size to something reasonable.)
1. (50) Read chapter 14 on different RAM styles (synchronous vs asynchronous, tristate, etc.) and
recreate the animation for the “RAM Text Display” example.
2. (50) Read chapter 17 and recreate the “Sprite Bitmaps” example with a car positioned near the
center of the screen.
3. (50) Read chapter 18 and recreate the “Sprite Rendering” example that uses the FSM-based
renderer module. Use the key buttons to move the car around the screen.
Notes:
• I’ve supplied my projects for both the digits and bouncing ball. Please use them as starting
points for the problems above.
