碩士 === 義守大學 === 電子工程學系 === 92 === In this thesis, we proposed a Memory Map LCD driver IP design based on the conventional B-type driving method. In the proposed LCD driver IP architecture, the display data RAM is improved as memory array composed of 4 banks which allows the central processor can access the other memory banks even the display is progressing, then the use of bus become more flexible. The methodology to integrate the proposed LCD driver IP in System-On-Chip (SOC) as an AMBA AHB slave component is also described. In order to communicate with the Example AMBA System (EASY) which is based on ARM922T processor, an AMBA AHB slave wrapper is designed for the proposed LCD driver. The stand alone LCD driver IP is simulated and verified in ISE environment. The embedded LCD driver IP is also simulated by running the ARM922T Design Sign-off Model (DSM) in EASY system. The results indicate that the proposed LCD driver IP is capable for SOC applications as in AMBA system.
