Abstract

A method and apparatus is disclosed for interleaving the transfer of pixel data from a dual bank frame buffer to a memory display interface. The interleaved transfer of pixel data to the memory display interface enables upgrade of existing memory display interface designs to higher density VRAM chips in order to increase the capacity of the frame buffer.
