FPGA Displays Real-Time Video Camera on VGA Monitor

The OV7670 camera module is 8 bits data image and it has a specification image of 30 frames per second. There are many applications of research that have been done about how to access this camera module and display it to the monitor. This paper presents the interface between this camera module OV7670 and FPGA DEO-Nano-Soc and then displays the video to the monitor via a VGA port. VGA port has a minimum of 5 pins; 3 pins for RGB data images, 1 pin for horizontal synchronous, and 1 pin for vertical synchronization. Due to the FPGA DE0-Nano-Soc not having the VGA driver, so the VGA driver ADV7133 24 bits is used in this research. The result showed that this research can work well enough. The system successfully to take the image from the camera and displays it as video in real-time.
