[oc] Video stuff



Hi guys,

Since there are a lot of dicussion topics about video support, I would like
to post
a question. I am designing now the video output part of the sFPGA. I have to
choose between two chips I had found as interesting : Bt481A & Bt498A.
Or, maybe someone suggests a better one. ;-))

Maybe you could help me choosing the wright one :

* Bt481A is a 110MHz 256-Word Collor Palette RAMDAC that supports
15-, 16-, and 24-Bit True Color;

* Bt498A is a 240MHz RAMDAC that supports 1920 * 1200 True Color
resolutions, up to 128-bit pixel port, three 1k * 8 color palette RAMs.

IMO the first one is COOL enough for the sFPGA board, but could be obsolete.
Do you, guys, think we really need such a big gun like the second chip ? ;-)
