I wrote a short verilog code to test VGA display. Vga display needs red, blue, green, vscan and hscan signal. And DE1SOC use another DAC to convert red, blue, green digital signals to analog signals. DAC needs dac_clock, scan_n and blank_n signals.
The code is shown below. I use a pll to convert clk_50m to clk_25m and clk_100m. Clk_50m is originate from the clock in board.
module vgatest(
input wire clk_50m,
input wire rst_n,
output reg [7:0] red,
output reg [7:0] green,
output reg [7:0] blue,
output wire hsync,
output wire vsync,
output wire dac_clk,
output wire dac_sync,
output wire dac_blank
);

endmoduleThe monitor is almosts black. In line 120, I make the default color be blue rather than black. That is my first confusion.
When I change the line 97 from
else if (x_pos>=10'd1 && x_pos<=10'd10)to
else if (x_pos>=10'd0 && x_pos<=10'd10)The result confuse me again.
Blue part is shown correctly, but the red part is missing.
I tried to solve this problem these days, but I don't know why. Now that the monitor display vga signal, I believe vscan and hscan is correct. The problem may among r,g,b signal. I really don't know the reason.
