Description
The 5445 SVGA is a small, low power, Micro PC card. The 5445E
contains both SVGA video and Ethernet circuitry.
Video
The 5445/5445E Video / Ethernet Card provides CRT and flat panel
support. The video controller IC chip provides the following:
Support for a wide variety of CRT and panel displays for high
performance applications.
Fully SVGA compatible.
1 MB of video display memory.
Supports analog CRT monitors, interlaced and non–interlaced, up
to 800 x 600 x 256 colors, or 1024 x 768 x 256 colors.
Supports monochrome LCD, EL and plasma flat panels up to 1280
x 1024 with 64 gray scales.
Supports simultaneous CRT & flat panel display. Simultaneous
mode is the only operating mode.
Includes adjustable bias supply for LCD panel.
Note
The 5445/5445E card does not support operating systems or drivers
that use linear memory or hardware acceleration. This includes
Windows 3.xx, Windows 95/98, and Windows NT.
Ethernet
The 5445/5445E Video / Ethernet Card provides a 10Base–T Ethernet
port and supports the IEEE 802.3 Ethernet standard. The card uses
twisted–pair wiring cable, which is built in a star configuration. The
interface terminates at the standard, 8–position, RJ–45 latching
phone jack. The Ethernet controller IC chip provides the following:
8K x 16 SRAM buffer
Integrated 10 Base–T transceiver interface
Two LEDs for link and traffic status integrated into the connector
