Delay Generator Demo
Here's a dual delay generator with·XGA (1024x768 VGA), mouse, and keyboard interface.· The two generators are independent, but syncronized.· You can save all settings to EEPROM.· Generators have 1 us precision.
Comments
(Does anyone else find this program as satisfying a demonstration of propeller's capabilities as I do?)
(a) It is nice piece of programming: cudos, Rayman!
(b) It shows how useful the few and short "basic" drivers (mouse, tv, vga) are, that Parallax delivers
(d) It shows that a "multiple choice" user interface as sported by any device that has access to a "screen" (e.g. "OSD" of monitors, beamers, cameras, larger printers,..) is always favourably accepted, even expected.
(e) It also shows that SPIN does not look good, when manipulating any kind of data structure
(f) It proves again the "windows lesson" that MOST of the code of a program is dedicated to the user interface (total program: 2,816 longs, delay logic: 105 longs = 4%)
(g) It also shows, that the Propeller is a Universal Turing Machine

What a sweet interface!
