NY Rockwell RG545/R6545E R6545/R6545E CRT Controller (CRTC) DESCRIPTION ‘The RES4S/AOSESE CAT Controtier (CRTC) Interfaces an 6-bit| ‘mseroprocessor to CAT raster scan video display, and adde an ‘advanced CAT controller tothe established and expanding ine ‘oF E600, RESOO! and RESCOO microprocesser, microcoMpAAEE ‘and peripheral device products. “The RE545 and ESASE devices der only inthe charactor clock frequency (OCLK) specications, The maximum GOLK frequency | 255 MHZ for the RSS45 and 3.7 Miz for he RASABE. Through cout this document, the nomenclalure FIEAS applies to both ovices, unless epacitied otherwise. ‘The R6S4S provides refresh memory addresses and charactor onerator row addresses which allow up to 18K characters with ‘32 can tings per character to be addressed. A major advan {age of he R645 is thatthe refresh memory may be addressed in either straight binary or by rowloluma, (Otner functions inthe RE64S Include an internal cursor register which generates a cursor output when its contents are aqual tone current refresh adéress. Programmable cursor stat and fend rapisters allow a cursor a up tothe full character scan in height tobe placed on any scan Ines of he character. Variable Cursor display Bink rates ae provided. A ight pen strobe input allows capture ofthe current refresh address in an internal ight pon register. The relresh address lines aro canligured to pro- vide direct dynamic memory refresh, {2iltiming for the video refresh memory signals is dervad trom the character clock input CLK). Shit register, lnc, and mul- tiplex contol signals (when neaded) are provided by externat igh-spaed timing, The mode control regisieralows naninter- laced video display modes at 50 or 60 Hz refresh rate. The internal statue ‘may be used to monitor the RGSS. ‘operation. The AES input allows the GATC-ganerated field rate 10 be dynamically-eynchronized with ine tequency iter.
