The display start/end registers store the first and the last pixels/lines of the last frame that have RGB data above a
programmed threshold.
The reference point of the STM block is the same as that of the source timing generator (STG) block:
z
The first pixel: the pixel whose SCLK rising edge sees the transition of the HSYNC polarity from low to high.
z
The first line: the line whose HSYNC rising edge sees the transition of the VSYNC polarity from low to high.
The CRC data and the line data are used to detect a test pattern image sent to the gmZAN1 input port.
2.4.2 IRQ Controller
Some input timing conditions can cause the gmZAN1 chip to generate an IRQ. The IRQ-generating conditions are
programmable, as given in the following table.
Table 12. IRQ-Generation Conditions
IRQ Event Remark
Timing Event One of the three events:
z
Leading edge of Vsync input,
z Panel line count (the line count is programmable),
z Every 10ms
Only one event may be selected at a time.
Timing Change Any of the following timing changes:
z
Sync loss,
z
DDS tracking error beyond threshold,
z Horizontal/vertical timing change beyond threshold
Threshold values are programmable.
Reading the IRQ status flags will not affect the STM registers.
Note that if a new IRQ event occurs while the IRQ status register is being read, the IRQ signal will become inactive
for minimum of one TCLK period and then get re-activated. The polarity of the IRQ signal is programmable.
