PL110_CLCD component

This section describes the PL110_CLCD component.

PL110_CLCD - about

This LISA+ component is a model of the PL110 Color LCD (CLCD) controller PrimeCell.

You can connect the model through a framebuffer port to, for instance, a visualization component, so that LCD output can be viewed.

The implementation provides a register model of the LCD controller, and both timing and bus utilization models favor efficiency of implementation and model speed rather than accuracy.

PL110_CLCD - verification and testing

This component passes tests as part of the VE example system by using VE test suites and by booting operating systems.

PL110_CLCD - performance

This component might affect the performance of a PV system.

The implementation is optimized for situations where the majority of the framebuffer does not change. For instance, displaying full screen video results in significantly reduced performance. Rendering pixel data into an appropriate form for the framebuffer port (rasterization) can also take a significant amount of simulation time. If the pixel data are coming from a PVBusSlave region that has been configured as memory-like, rasterization only occurs in regions where memory contents are modified.
