Sounds like gamma correction needs to be available for OGC1, which
means the logic should be there to support 10-bit VDACs. If we can't test
it on OGD1, that would call for logic validation some other way.
Or, is it possible that single-ended to differential conversion ICs
could be a factory option for OGD1, to be installed only on boards used to
test this feature? (I suspect not, but it might not be all that hard to
spin an OGD2 board with that feature added, once OGD1 is shipping.)
