microprocessor display

[padmow]

Hi all,

I want to display data from my system, which has 8-bit microprocessor ,
to TV set.

the data would be table of char and number only , they are colour, not
black and white.

I would really appreciate simple solution for this, perhaps single chip
solution.

Thank you in advance

Hi


I guess if you want to use a single chip, an OSD processor does more or
less what you want. You could have a lool at the Philips SAA567x/SAA569x
family.

If you want to use the aerial / antenna socket to do this, be aware that TV
resolution is rather poor. I also doubt you'll get a single chip solution,
it's not that trivial a task.

There's an example of an old- fashioned 'tennis' type video game (c.
1972 vintage) in the Texas MSP430 examples. It shouldn't take too much
to tweak that to output characters from a LUT instead of moving 'bats'
and 'balls', with RGB outputs for the colour.
