But not unique to those boards I take it?

Actually sofar it is unique to those boards, both the normal and the Micro variant (in theory we could see something similar on other boards one day).

The Hummingbird A31 has the same setup, using an external DAC for the RGB signals, as it doesn't have the TV encoder. See:
