PIC PAL TV is a PIC18 based Software Video Processor allowing you to display and overlay graphics and text onto a video source. Looks like it would be really handy for overlaying GPS information or even creating a homebrew games console…
It uses a PIC clocked at 32 Mhz with a 8 Mhz crystal to achieve the horizontal synchronization timing of the PAL system. It is able to generate a 625 line interlaced PAL video signal, with 248 vertical lines. The software is coded in Assembly and C with full sources avaliable from Bruno’s website.
It is a really lightweight design and Bruno provides full system details on his page so you can easily expand and customise it further if you needed to, go see Brunos site at http://www.micro-examples.com for this and more projects…
