SystemVerilog based design and implementation of LCD Controller IP Core

The growing need of the SoC market and recent trends in embedded systems, force designers to come up with solutions to speed up the chip design and development process. Each embedded system has to be designed in a comparatively short time with minimum bugs and these issues force the designers to adopt new techniques and technologies. In this paper a novel and speedy approach using a comparatively newer language in design, SystemVerilog is introduced. A configurable and reusable Liquid Crystal Display (LCD) Controller is designed and developed using SystemVerilog. The approach presented here is faster and more efficient compared to traditional methods of design. The LCD Controller was successfully designed, developed and validated in FPGA.
