ARTC HD63484
Hitachi LSI HD63484 Advanced CRT Controller chip is a GPU created by Hitachi in 1984 that supports 4K display resolution.
Description
The LSI HD63484 was built in 2 μm CMOS technology and had about 60,000 MOSFETs and could operate at 8 MHz. ACRTC introduced a screen resolution of 4096×4096 pixels at 1-bit color depth, or 1024×1024 at 16-bit color. Focused on computer graphics for the emerging desktop publishing market with bitmap printing. The chip had the ability to program the synchronization signal of CRT monitors. It could support up to 2 megabytes of video memory and offered an asynchronous Direct [memory access|DMA] bus interface that could be mapped to 16-bit ISA and VME buses.Literature
