Name

Description

RSVD

Reserved.

27

VISL

Vertical Interrupt Select. Effective immediately.
0: SMI generated at start of vertical blank when VIEN is enabled (bit 5 = 1).
1: SMI generated at end of vertical sync when VIEN is enabled (bit 5 = 1).

26

RSVD

Reserved.

25

PALB

PAL Bypass.
0: Graphics data is routed through palette RAM in 16, 24, and 32-bpp display modes.
1: Graphics data bypasses palette RAM in 16, 24, and 32-bpp display modes. While con-

figured in this mode, 2-bpp cursor and border overlays are supported, but the palette
entries for these items must be modified. See Section 6.6.7.1 on page 335 for more
information.

24

DCEN

Display Center.
0: Normal active portion of scan line is qualified with DISPEN (ball AE4).
1: Border and active portions of scan line are qualified with DISPEN. This enables cen-

tering the display for flat panels.

VFHPEL

Video-FIFO High Priority End Level. This field specifies the depth of the video FIFO (in
multiples of 64 bytes) at which a high priority request previously issued to the memory
controller for video data will end. This field should always be non-zero and should be
larger than the start level. Note that the settings in the DC_ARB_CFG register (DC Mem-
ory Offset 00Ch) can also affect the priority of requests. This field should be set to 0 if
video overlay is disabled.

15:12

VFHPSL

Video-FIFO High Priority Start Level. This field specifies the depth of the video FIFO
(in multiples of 64 bytes) at which a high priority request is sent to the memory controller
to fill up the video FIFO. This field should always be non-zero and should be less than the
high-priority end level. Note that the settings in the DC_ARB_CFG register (DC Memory
Offset 00Ch) can also affect the priority of requests.

11:10

16BPP_MODE

Per-Pixel Mode. Based on the number of bits per pixel (DISP_MODE bits [9:8] must
equal 01), this determines how those bits are allocated to color and alpha information:

For 16-bpp display format:
00: 16-bpp (RGB 5:6:5)
01: 15-bpp (RGB 5:5:5)
10: XRGB (ARGB 4:4:4)
11: Reserved
