An 8-channel DA for VGA/XGA and stereo audio (balanced or unbalanced) using HD15 (VGA) and detachable terminal block connectors (audio). Its unique feature allows each of the 8 VGA outputs, and each of the 8 stereo audio outputs, to be individually enabledor disabled, replacing a switcher which would typically be used in such setups. RS-232 and/or RS-485 may be used for control (switching) of the outputs, and the output configuration is stored in non-volatile memoryso that the machine will restore its power-down status when power is returned. Sync pulses are detected andreconstructed before amplifying and buffering to the outputs.
