It is a serial or 10 bit databus) driven TV Video generator NTSC or PAL with a multitude of video modes from text only to bitmaps with sprites.
It runs of 3V3 or 5V.

Hi Bean,

There's a multitude of display modes, 1bit, 2bit, 4bit and 8bit bitmap or charmap modes, there's also a new mode, being added at the moment, which is an LCD compatible mode, ie a plug and play mode, to replace an lcd just connect our board to the pins for the lcd, and away you go. which will have the text mode like the LCD, and even a 128x64 bitmap mode, and the LCD comms mode will be LCD compatible, for ease of integration with current projects for LCD users.

I'll post more details, soon as I can [noparse]:)[/noparse]

Hi Bean,

I see Baggers beat me to the chase lol
Graphically we have included commands to draw lines, circles, boxes, filled polygons, load bitmaps etc etc
Then we commands for up to 80 16*16 sprites x & y flippable and screen scrolling
I must just add at this stage that although we have all the native video modes done LCD compatibility is a late edition and is just experimental.
I see no reason why it can't be included in time for release though.
