04.03.2025 - One Giant Pixel? Exploring $D020 and VIC-II/6510 Timing- video by '8-Bit Show And Tell'
The VIC-II video chip in the Commodore 64 has a control bit that will cause the screen border to cover the entire screen, filling the whole screen with whatever colour is currently in the border colour register, location 53280 or $D020. This sort of makes the entire screen one giant pixel, but of course it's much more complicated than that when you start considering constant dynamic interaction between the 6510 CPU and the VIC-II. There's actually a lot that can be done with just that one colour register, and when we start modifying it and counting CPU cycles, we can learn a lot about how the system works.
