From the project
John Bell Engineering CRT Controller board
The CRT interface is controlled by an 8275 programmable CRT controller. The CRT dot and character timing is generated by an 8224 clock generator. A second channel of the 8253 timer provides the appropriate horizontal retrace timing for the CRT monitor. A 2716 EPROM is utilized to provide a user-programmable character generator, and a shift register transforms the data from the character EPROM into a serial bit stream to illuminate dots on the CRT screen. The 2716 character generator makes it possible to display special symbols for word processing or industrial control applications or to…
