One very complex activity in developing hardware projects is interfacing with LCD displays. The concept is very easy to understand, however, implementing all the times needed and the state machines are quite difficult.
I have made available a nice project, which make this task very easy to carry on. Check the project "LCD Controller" on the left menu.

I finally have published some nice, and really interesting project: Z80SoC.
You will find almost all you need to take profit of the Spartan 3E and Altera DE1 boards, including access to SRAM, 7 segment displays and the LCD display,which seems to be one of the hardest thing to make work on the development boards which have this resource (the hardest resource to use is actually the SDRAM).
My Z80SoC project groups all this together in one place. Go ahead and try it out.

The best FPGA projects ... are somewhere, out there.
You will find here, only starter projects. For beginners.
There is always someone looking for something simple, to start over with something. People need samples, things that works in order to understand. That's is my proposed contribution.
The Z80 computer is a nice project. Simple, yet useful.
I use the T80 core to run some z80 codes stored in a ROM, and show data on the leds. Cool.
