The Tech-Source Raptor 1000 high resolution graphics accelerator combines in a single slot PCI card a comprehensive array of high-end display subsystem features that formerly required a box level solution. The Raptor 1000 is designed for use in high resolution, high performance, color graphics applications such as Air Traffic Management and Vessel Control. It's high level of integration achieves extreme flexibility over a wide range of functions.
An advanced Application Specific Integrated Circuit designed by Tech-Source engineers provides the ability to display 1024 independent dynamic colors at the same time. That’s four times the number of colors available in traditional graphics systems. Specialized frame buffer layering hardware allows for complete control of 24 independently addressable overlays
with dynamic priority adjustment. That’s 12 times more than most advanced underlay/overlay systems.
The Raptor 1000 offers two-dimensional drawing acceleration for polygons, text and windowing operations. The graph- ics-processor can generate an excess of 900,000 X Window System characters per second providing the ability to manage over 2,000 targets/tracks in real time.
Multiple configuration modes are available for double buffering and multiple overlay buffering support. True hardware double buffering is supported using standard software interfaces such as MBX (Multi-buffering extension for X) and DBE (Double buffering extension). Specialized flash fill hardware performs back buffer screen erases in under 100 microseconds.
