4. Results

 Task 1



Task 1: The purpose of this task was to repeat the exercise from the book where we connect an LCD to the BASYS 3 board to display some srolling messages. Video shows functionality. Some of the ports from the example were adjusted to work for the way I coonnected the LCD on the BASYS 3 board.
Task 2



Task 2: The purpose of this task was to repeat the work from task 1 but making the display static. This was done by decreasing the clk_param to increase the speed of the scrolling. Video shows demonstration.
Task 3



Task 3: The purpose of this task was to use the ASCII code instead of letters in the code to display "HELLO!!". Decimal numbers from the table provided were used.



Discussion
This laboratory assignment was useful and fun. We learned how to use an LCD together with a BASYS 3 board and how to send and manipulate data directly to the LCD. I believe this is an important application for various projects. Looking forward in implementing this in any way.
