ADV7150LS170

Digital To Analog Converters Overview

The ADV7150LS170 is a CMOS monolithic Video RAM-DAC designed for high-performance color graphics workstations. It integrates triple 10-bit gamma-correcting D/A converters and 256x310 color palette RAM to support 24-bit direct True-Color operation at a maximum screen update rate of 170 MHz. The device implements 30-bit True Color in 24-bit frame buffer designs and supports 15-bit True Color and 8-bit pseudo-color modes. Key features include on-chip clock control, RS-343A/RS-170 compatible analog outputs, and TTL-compatible digital inputs within a 160-lead plastic QFP package.
