Abstract
As the microelectronic industry grows there has been an exponential increase in the importance of FPGAs in modern digital circuit design. FPGAs not only provided an advantage of being reconfigurable but also come in extremely small packaging. In this paper we use the Xilinx Spartan 3AN series FPGA and propose its use as part of a System on Chip controller for a Video Graphics Array (VGA), that serves as one of the most popular display units today.
