A method and a system for frame data to a frame sequential display device without using a frame buffer at the display device and while still maintaining the ability to use a standard interface capable of running at standard bandwidths is disclosed herein. A display system may be used to convert a multiple color frame to a plurality of single color component frames for sequential display on a display device. The display system includes a data system, a display controller, and a display device. The data system provides graphics data to the display controller. The display controller converts the graphics data into single color component frames and then transmits the single color component frames sequentially in sets of parallel data to the display device for display. The display device receives the sets of parallel data and converts the parallel data into sequential data. The sequential data is then output to a frame sequential display. In at least one embodiment, the display controller and the display device are connected using a standard interface transmitting data at a standard rate.
