Wikipedia says it was used in the Rainbow 100.
It was. Or to be more preciese, it was used in the colour/graphics add-on
board for the 'bow.
The 7220 was also used in the VT240 terminal IIRC (which has a graphics
system very like that of the 'bow colour card). And in the HH Tiger. But
I susepct findign docuemtnation on those is a lot harder.

C: As was mentioned it was used in the NEC APC (and APC III). But the earlier APC had 2 of
them. Not sure why, I don't have a lot of docs for it, but I know that you could pan
and zoom in on a virtual screen, that was larger then the visible 640 x 400 or 480. I
don't even have a complete APC anymore. I'm missing the cpu and floppy cards,
though I managed to hold onto the aftermarket Butler Flats Associates floppy controller
for 5 1/4" drives (and ironically the stock fdc is a 8272/nec 765 chip, and the
aftermarket uses a wdc 1770 or 1771. Go figure). I'm starring in a remake of an old
classic movie, though slightly altered from the original - Escape from New Jersey. Things
tend to get jostled around and sometimes even lost (i.e tossed in the skip) during a mad
exodus.
