Abstract

A method and an apparatus for interleaving display frame buffers for use by multi-panel display(s) is disclosed. The system provides a data addressing transformation apparatus for converting CPU addresses for pixel positions of the multiple panels of display screen(s) to corresponding memory addresses so as to enable multiple video frame buffers to be interleavably stored in and retrieved from a single video memory system.
