ABSTRACT:
A small size graphic microcomputer provided with a direction control circuit and a coordinate computing circuit, which allow for finer control over the direction in which a dot of interest is moving. The sequence of operations from the calculation of coordinates through address generation is carried out sequentially so that addresses in the drawing memory can be obtained at high speed in response to each output clock.
