The PD6466 is a CMOS LSI for on-screen character display, and can be used in combination with a microcomputer to display the tape counter, time, and date in the view finder of a video camera, or the time of a video tape, messages such as dates on pictures, and channel number on a TV screen. Characters are displayed in 12 (horizontal) by 18 (vertical) dots. Two or more characters can be combined to display Kanji (Japanese characters) and symbols. This LSI supports color view finders and is provided with three sets of character output signals (RGB output: for color view finder, VC1 output: for recording (or monitor pin), VC2 output: for monitor pin (or recording)). |
