Abstract:
An image generation method comprising the steps of:dividing an area of written image into a plurality of rectangular blocks;subdividing each of said blocks longitudinally and laterally into a plurality of rectangular segments corresponding to pixels of the image;assigning binary data which represent an address of each pixel as a basic address signal;bisecting the basic binary data of basic address signal into a high order address signal bits for longitudinal address and a low order address signal bits for the lateral address;outputting a result of exclusive OR of least significant bits of high and low order address signal bits of basic address signal;converting the arrangement of pixels by replacing the least significant bit of the low order address signal bits with the outputted result of the exclusive OR;separating the pixels into two groups according to the value of the least significant bit of the low order address signal bits after the replacement;storing temporarily the separated pixels with their basic addresses into correspondigly separated FIFOS;storing the pixels with its basic addresses stored in the FIFOs into two DRAMs separated in accordance with the same separation discrimination mode, sequentially in parallel; andoutputting the pixels stored in the separated DRAMs according to the corresponding basic addresses.
