+ | ==== Description ==== | ||
+ | |||
+ | The Arty Z7 HDMI Out project demonstrates the usage of the HDMI out port on the Arty Z7 board. There are two projects, one for each variant of the board: Arty Z7-10 and Arty Z7-20. | ||
+ | The behavior is as follows: | ||
+ | |||
+ | * Frames stream out through the HDMI port. | ||
+ | * A UART interface is available to configure what is output through HDMI. | ||
+ | * There are 3 display frame buffers that the user can choose to display. | ||
