A high resolution raster display includes a central processor for providing image data, a digital image processing circuit for converting the image data to display signals, and an analog display circuit for converting the display signals to drive signals for driving a CRT to form a color raster display on the screen of the CRT. The digital image processing circuit includes a display memory for storing the image data and a programmable attribute look-up table for storing attribute data. Under the control of the central processor, the image data stored in the display memory is read out and is used to address the attribute look-up table which provides attribute signals as an output. A pixel rate converter reads in the attribute signals at a first rate and outputs analog display signals at a second rate which is much higher than the first rate, with a video bandwidth of up to 210 MHz. The display signals are received by the analog display circuit, and are used to generate drive signals for driving the color guns of the CRT. The central processor is also capable of providing intensity control signals to the analog display circuit so that the intensity level of each of the attributes identified by the attribute signals can be varied. In this manner, the intensity of the various types of features on a display (for example, background, map, weather, flight path, etc.) can be varied independently.
