Re: Howto vary reflection coefficient?

I was quoted $1625 for a single ChronoColor display engine, and FPGA
driver chip by Displaytech ($1500, and $125 respectively). You would
still have to make a board with the a few support components: SGRAM
framebuffer, LVDS transmitter (National DS90CR851), and a video A/D chip
if you want to drive the display with a standard analog VGA signal. It's
a far cry from a developers kit, but significantly cheaper.

Cheers!
