VMChannel [VESA Media Channel] Pinout Signal Names and Bus Description

VMChannel Pinout

VMChannel [VESA Media Channel] describes a hardware interface for desktop multimedia systems. The VMChannel is a multiple master, multiple drop, clock synchronous interface designed for concurrent pixel data streams. VMChannel is an industry standard 32-bit bus designed for carrying video data. VMChannel enables the real time flow of uncompressed multimedia pixels in a bidirectional fashion between multiple video adapters.
