Overview: The SMT304 Size 2 TIM-40 is a graphics module providing a high-performance display node for TIM-based systems.1 Mbyte of fast SRAM is supplied as standard for storing code and data, while an optional 16 MBytes of DRAM may be fitted for large memory applications.The SMT304 integrates the TMS320C40 with a graphics controller. This design ensures that the DSP device is free to process graphical information while a dedicated graphics processor handles the screen image.The TIM has 4 MBytes of VRAM which is shared between the 'C40 and the W9100. This frame store memory is sufficient to support screen sizes of 1280 x 1024 at 8 or 16 bits per pixel. 16-bits is represented as 5-bits per color plus 1-bit of overlay/cursor. Maximum true-color resolution is 1024 x 1024 (24 bits/pixel) with an additional 4-bit overlay and 2-bit cursor. Lower resolutions, up to 1280 x 1024 x 8, may be double buffered.
