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 graph­ics-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.
