Abstract
A mosaic picture display apparatus includes a picture processing unit and an external storage unit connected thereto. Mosaic size data is programmed in the external storage unit. In response to a control signal which is generated for each mosaic having a mosaic size determined by the mosaic size data at timing of the start thereof, a latch latches still picture character data outputted from a register. Therefore, each of dots in the mosaic is displayed by the same latched character data.
