Display - MARIE-js/MARIE.js GitHub Wiki

MARIE.js has a 15-bit RGB 16x16 display as output, which can be accessed by clicking on "Display" tab on the right side. This allows you to draw pixels to screen using assembly code.

The display reads from the last 256 memory cells, that is between addresses 0xF00 and 0xFFF inclusive.

Memory address Row number Column number
0xF00 1 1
0xF01 1 2
... ... ...
0xF0F 1 16
0xF10 2 1
0xF11 2 2
... ... ...
0xF1F 2 16
... ... ...
... ... ...
0xFFF 16 16

Each memory cell reads 5 bits for each colour channel, with the most significant bit unused.
