OVERVIEW
The CL-GD542X family of true-color VGA controllers offers an extensive range of industry-leading features and functionality for IBM®-patible personal puters.
Ideally suited to highly integrated systems, CL-GD542X devices require no external support other than display memory and a crystal frequency reference. CL-GD542X devices are 100% hardware- and BIOS-patible with IBM VGA standards, and connect directly to an ISA or local bus, allowing a minimum adapter solution.
Operating at dot clock rates programmable up to 86 MHz, CL-GD542X devices support standard and VESA® highresolution and...
