VGA Port
The Spartan-3 Starter Kit board includes a VGA display port and DB15 connector,
indicated as
in Figure 1-2 . Connect this port directly to most PC monitors or flat-panel
LCD displays using a standard monitor cable.
As shown in Figure 5-1 , the Spartan-3 FPGA controls five VGA signals: Red (R), Green (G),
Blue (B), Horizontal Sync (HS), and Vertical Sync (VS), all available on the VGA connector.
The FPGA pins that drive the VGA port appear in
Table 5-1 . A detailed schematic is in
Figure A-7 .
