ABSTRACT:
A display controller in a computer system controls the output of graphics display data in a computer system having a fixed resolution flat panel display. Fixed panel displays may have problems displaying non-native resolutions particularly at lower resolutions. The controller of the present invention uses a Discrete Time Oscillator (DTO) based clock divider and DCT based polyphase interpolation to upscale graphics display data from a first resolution to the panel resolution. DTO clock divider circuit synchronizes scan clocks between the input resolution and the desired output resolution. Within graphics display area, MVA.TM. display at greater color depth and resolution may be accommodated by additional DTO divider and interpolation steps.
