Abstract
The display system includes a display controller which renders text and graphics and writes it to the RAM. The display controller then reads the rendered information from the RAM and activates a display based upon that information. Generally the display controller reads information from the display controller and activates the display at a constant refresh rate; however, when a large number of text and/or graphics to be rendered have accumulated, the display controller temporarily reduces the refresh rate in order to render and write the text and/or graphics to the RAM.
