Software developer (in love with C++). Hardware geek (FPGA's, STM32, AVR, crazy stuff from discrete components), love LED indicators (7-segment, alphanumeric). Trying to understand ASIC design & manufacturing better at the moment. Also, trying to wrap my head around lens design, but that is not going to be that easy.

@Renan But what are generic limitations? Can I throw 240 scan lines for example?

@JYelton Yes, I've seen this list. But unfortunately speculation based on practical experience of designing hardware with VGA output is what I need.

Brian, I am not talking about PC screen resolution. Video signal will be generated by FPGA.

comment How do microcontrollers achieve > 1 MIPS/MHz performance?
The only typical superscalar thing in this microcontroller segment is MADD - multiply & add in single cycle. Although, it doesn't help much in Drystone.

comment Intel x86 and patent implications
@dwelch At the moment they all are license holders from Intel. The question is what is still left, which prohibits companies not holding Intel license to manufacture x86 processors.

comment Intel x86 and patent implications
I am interested in oldest non-expired thing, and as expiry term is 20 years - it should be slightly younger than 20 years I guess. 20 years ago (2012-20 = 1992) we had 486 and Pentium started to appear.
