Introducing the Sun XVR-1000 graphics accelerator
The Sun XVR-1000 graphics accelerator is Sun's third-generation fast frame buffer
graphics accelerator. It provides acceleration for Sun OpenGL® applications incorporating not just 2-D/3-D geometry processing, but also texture mapping and image mapping.
The Sun XVR-1000 graphics accelerator introduces an entirely new graphics
accelerator architecture with the MAJC graphics processor at its core.
The Sun XVR-1000 graphics accelerator is offered as
an option for the Sun Ultra 60, Sun Ultra 80, Sun Blade 1000, and Sun Blade 2000 workstations.
This new graphics accelerator allows Sun to better support graphics-demanding technical markets,
especially those requiring a high-performance visualization engine, such as
design/styling/virtual prototyping, GEO/GIS, biomedical, and government/defense. It provides Sun's Ultra Port Architecture (UPA)-based workstations with a
competitive advantage due to its superior 3-D performance, higher levels of
quality, and new levels of flexibility.

Key Features
- High-performance 2-D and 3-D graphics acceleration, including on-board geometry
- Hardware-based, high-performance texture mapping with 256 MB of dedicated texture memory
- Superior quality 3-D image via single-pass multisampled antialiasing
- High resolutions supported in 2-D and 3-D up to HDTV resolutions
- Supports resolution of up to 1920 x 1200 30-bit color, double-buffer, 26-bit Z-buffered
- Supports resolution of up to 1280 x 1020 @112 Hz stereo output
- 30-bit (10-bit/channel) color support with 8-bit alpha channel (38-bit RGBA), which provides more colors and eliminates color banding effects with high-definition images
- 26-bit floating-point Z-buffer
requires fewer bits/pixel compared to the fixed point format, thereby reducing the Z-buffer memory requirements
- Multiple video output capabilities from a single board
- Analog S-Video output for displaying graphics on a TV monitor or recorded to a VCR
- Dual display RGB support from single frame buffer
- Supports standard 13W3 and HD-15 analog, as well as the new Digital Video Interface (DVI) standard for driving digital flat panels and high-end projection systems
- Programmable display resolutions in the hardware allow end users to define non-standard resolution output for specialty display output devices and projectors.
