The part is specifically designed for true-color puter graphics systems. The ADV473 integrates a number of graphic functions onto one device allowing 24-bit direct true-color operation at the maximum screen update rate of 135 MHz. It can also be used in other modes, including 15-bit true color and 8-bit pseudo or indexed color. The ADV473 is fully PS/2 and VGA register level patible. It is also capable of implementing IBM’s XGA standard.
