For a fun challenge, implement space invaders in Verilog (i.e. purely in hardware)
- MBCook 3y agoHow would you suggest going about the display? Driving an LCD or generating an NTSC/PAL signal? Or maybe a giant array of LEDs? Is there a good tool to simulate Verilog so you can test without hardware?
- programjames 3y agoYou can hook it up to a monitor and stream the graphics over HDMI. And yes, there are ways to simulate Verilog
- umvi 3y agoWhen I did it, I drove VGA
- CatchSwitch 3y agoFun fact: The original Pong had no CPU and had all the logic built into the hardware
- cardiffspaceman 3y agoIronically, some EEs called that design paradigm “random logic”.
- omgtehlion 3y agoCouple of years ago I implemented a snake game in 74-series logic ICs, and 8x8 led indicator, it was fun )
