Hello,

You can use the RAM memory block of the FPGA to store a picture, but there will be maybe a problem of size, because the onchip memory is not very large (depend on the FPGA you have).

Which FPGA do you use ? What is the size of the picture to store ?

Hi thanks for the reply.. Im using Cyclone II EP2C35F672C6 from the de2 development and education board. As for the picture. Im not very sure at the moment. Say if the onchip memory is sufficient, how do i do it?
