3 Demo firmware packages will be available soon:

1) A memory test that checks for I2C EEPROM, SPI Flash and writes a character set, a Amiga Boing Ball demo and a test image into Flash memory.

2) A graphics demo that displays the following test routines on all 4 channels:

• full colour default palette
• demo image from package 1)
• Mandelbrot set on channel 0 only
• colour bars in YUV and RGB colour space
• all characters from the set written to Flash in package 1)
• a C-64 inspired start screen
• the Amiga Boing ball demo, showcasing the block-move (blitter) function of the VS23S040 chip.

3) A serial port command line application, geared towards storing and displaying BMP images. Some test images are shown in the image gallery for this project.
