The ADV473 integrates number of graphic functions onto one
device allowing 24-bit direct true-color operation at the maximum screen update rate of 13S MHz. It can also be used in
other modes, induding IS-bit true color and 8-bit pseudo or
indexed color. The ADV473 is fully PS/2 and VGA register
level compatible. It is also capable of implementing IBM's XGA
standard.
