Introduction
This project consists of creating an entirely synthesizable “pong” core that can be
implemented on an Altera Flex EPF10k70cr240-4 FPGA. The game uses a VGA monitor as
output and a PS/2 keyboard as input. The game is one player only, and that player plays against
the core’s artificial intelligence. The object of the game is to keep the ball in play by using the
“paddle” to keep the ball in play. The ball is out of bounds when it reaches either the left or right
side of the screen.
It is possible to beat the computer because the ball actually moves faster that the paddles.
When the player wins, the screen turns green and when the FPGA wins, the screen turns red.

Top Level
The top level of this project is a GDF file. It ties together the keyboard controller, game core and
the VGA controller. Below is a screen capture of the GDF:

Figure 1: Top level of pong core.

This game was designed using a hierarchical approach which has several advantages. The game
is easier to code when it is broken apart into fundamental functions, it is easier to understand and
it is easier to debug. The chart below shows the hierarchical structure of the pong core:

Figure 2: Hierarchical representation of pong core

The remaining part of this paper will describe each of these blocks in detail. The code will be
listed at the end of the paper.

Sub Blocks
kb_main
There is no RTL in this block, it simply ties together the keyboard and kb_control blocks.

keyboard
This block interfaces directly with the data and clock pins on the PS/2 keyboard. This code
was supplied by the UP2 manual.

kb_control
This is the keyboard controller block. It controls the keyboard block and reads the
keyboard codes. It interprets keyboard code sequences and decides whether certain keys are
depressed or not. It can detect four keys – up, down, left and right. Below is an ASM chart
describing it’s operation:

Figure 3: ASM chart for keyboard controller.

The status flag can have three values: E0 code, F0 code and key code. E0 and F0 codes
designate a make or break and the key code designates which key was hit. A more efficient
implementation might have been to use two separate state machines – one to interface with the
keyboard block and another to keep track of scancodes.
Test
This block was tested visually. It was hooked up in a GDF test bench where it’s four outputs
were tied to LEDs. The moment a key (up, down, left or right) was depressed, the associated
LED would turn on and as soon as the key was let go, the LED would turn off.
The ideal way to test the block (and the other blocks for that matter) would have been to
create a test bench and use some ASSERT statements to check whether things were working.
Unfortunately, the Altera software does not support this essential feature of VHDL.

VGAsync
This block interfaces directly with the red, green, blue, hsync and vsync signals on the UP2
board. It generates all the timings required by a VGA monitor. This code was supplied by the
UP2 manual.

pongmain
This is the main module for the pong core. It ties together the ball, paddle and paddle2 state
machines. The state machine contained in this module controls the game start and end. Below is
an ASM chart describing it’s operation:

Figure 4: Main state machine ASM chart

Pongmain also OR’s together the RGB outputs from the ball, paddle and paddle2 blocks so that
all of their outputs may be displayed simultaneously on the screen. Also, the player1win signal
is OR’ed in with Green so that the screen turns green when the player has won. Similarly,
player2win is OR’ed with Red so that a win by the computer is indicated.

Test
This block was tested using a simple test bench. Since it does not have many signals (once
the ball, paddle and paddle2 components are removed) it was possible to test it using the
waveform editor in the MaxPlus2 software.

ball
The start of this code came from the ball example in the UP2 manual, however, it was
heavily modified and doesn’t look anything like the original code. The original code had several
problems – the two most significant were the fact that it didn’t compile because the
CONV_STD_LOGIC_VECTOR functions were incorrectly used and it had WAIT statements
which are not supposed to be used in synthesizable code (however, for some reason the Altera
software accepts the use of WAIT).
Ball is a very simple single state state machine, so it’s really not even a machine. It checks
the reset_n signal to reset it’s variables. Otherwise, it moves the ball based on the current
direction speedX and speedY and checks for collisions with the walls and paddles.
Ball (and also the following blocks paddle and paddle2) has a separate PROCESS to “draw”
the ball using RGB signals.

Test
This block was difficult to test. The philosophy for this block, paddle and paddle2 was to
test the individually and incrementally. The first version of the ball block only bounced in the Y
direction. Once that was working, the other dimension was added. Then the paddle block was
created and tested. Finally, I brought the Y position output of the paddle block into the ball
block and wrote the section that detects the paddle collision.

paddle
This code is similar to the ball code, however the paddle moves only in one direction and
based on user input from the keyboard.

Test
This ENTITY was tested by trial and error, since setting up a test bench with waveforms
would have been too difficult. This block was designed and tested incrementally.

paddle2
This code is essentially the same as the paddle block with the exception of an extra
PROCESS which is used to control the paddle. The Track_ball process checks the position and
then moves the paddle according to the following rules: if the ball is “north” of the paddle then
the move_up flag is set and if the ball is “south” of the paddle then the move_down flag is set.
Then in the Move_paddle process, the paddle is moved according to the flags and whether or not
the paddle is already at a screen boundary.
Test
Testing this block was straightforward since it is the same as the paddle block with the
addition of the simple Move_paddle process.

Bug(s)
Unfortunately, the code does have at least one bug that is known. It is in the ball block and
it’s effect is that if you narrowly miss the ball with the paddle, i.e. you are moving after it, the
ball will go behind the paddle, hit the wall and bounce back rather than tell the pongmain state
machine that the wall was hit and the game should be over.
This bug can be fixed by detecting whether the ball is between the paddle’s plane and the
edge of the screen rather that just detecting whether the ball has broken the plane. The ball
seems to be traveling too fast to be detected under some circumstances.
