5 6 POC-174 User's Manual
6.1 Introduction
The POC-174 has an onboard AGP flat panel/VGA interface. The
specifications and features are described as follows:
6.1.1 Chipset
The POC-174 uses an Intel 845GV chipset from Intel for its AGP/SVGA
controller. It supports many popular LCD, EL, and gas plasma flat
panel displays and conventional analog CRT monitors. The Intel
845GV VGA BIOS supports monochrome LCD, EL, color TFT and STN
LCD flat panel displays. In addition, it also supports interlaced and
non-interlaced analog monitors (color and monochrome VGA) in high-
resolution modes while
maintaining complete IBM VGA compatibility. Digital monitors
(i.e. MDA, CGA, and EGA) are NOT supported. Multiple frequency
(multisync) monitors are handled as if they were analog monitors.
6.1.2 Display memory
With onboard 64 MB display memory, the VGA controller can drive
CRT displays or color panel displays with resolutions up to 1280 x 1024
at 16 M colors.
6.1.3 Display types
CRT and panel displays can be used simultaneously. The POC-174 can
be set in one of three configurations: on a CRT, on a flat panel display,
or on both simultaneously. The system is initially set to simultaneous
display mode. If you want to enable the CRT display only or the flat
panel display only, contact Silicon Motion Inc. or our sales representa-
tive for detailed information.
