- | ====== DAC ====== | ||
- | The LCD breakout has 6 bit x RGB output, which we can turn into a 6-bit DAC -> RGB analog 0.7Vpp into 75 ohms | ||
- | use 278 & 556 ohm resistors for the R2R ladder, this will give you ~0.7v signal when plugged into a 75 ohm termination such as a monitor. | ||
- | |||
- | ====== VSync ====== | ||
- | |||
- | We want to get the Vsync to about 60hz | ||
- | |||
- | By default, the 'internal' LCD sync rate is 117 Hz | ||
- | <code> | ||
- | chumby-:/ # cat /proc/driver/chumbyfwfb/fb_stats | ||
- | PXP frequency: 59 Hz | ||
- | LCDIF frequency: 117 Hz | ||
- | VSYNC Edge IRQs: 49077 | ||
- | Cur Frame Done IRQs: 49224 | ||
- | Missed PXP firings: 5 | ||
- | </code> | ||
- | |||
- | This is set by the HW_CLKCTRL_PIX register | ||
- | |||
- | <code> | ||
- | chumby-:/ # regutil -r HW_CLKCTRL_PIX | ||
- | Value at 0x80040060: 0x0000001d | ||
- | </code> | ||
- | |||
- | Lets divide the frequency by 2 which means multiplying the divider by two | ||
- | |||
- | <code> | ||
- | chumby-:/ # regutil -w HW_CLKCTRL_PIX=0x38 | ||
- | Setting 0x80040060: 0x0000000e -> 0x00000038 ok | ||
- | </code> | ||
- | |||
- | <code> | ||
- | chumby-:/ # cat /proc/driver/chumbyfwfb/fb_stats | ||
- | PXP frequency: 32 Hz | ||
- | LCDIF frequency: 62 Hz | ||
- | VSYNC Edge IRQs: 69919 | ||
- | Cur Frame Done IRQs: 70118 | ||
- | Missed PXP firings: 5 | ||
- | </code> | ||
- | |||
- | Actually, to get the closest to 60 Hz. I went with HW_CLKCTRL_PIX=0x37 (so says the tek 'scope) | ||
- | |||
- | How the Hsync is 17.08 KHz (we want 2x that 31.46 KHz) | ||
- | |||
- | |||
- | THIS IS ALL WRONG. START OVER! | ||
- | |||
- | ====== Horizontal Sync HW_LCDIF_VDCTRL2====== | ||
- | |||
- | For the LCD, this is by default = 0x45000190 | ||
- | |||
- | Per horizontal line: 640 pixels | ||
- | Front porch: 16 pixels | ||
- | Sync pulse width: 96 pixels | ||
- | Back porch: 48 pixels | ||
- | |||
- | SO! | ||
- | |||
- | HW_LCDIF_VDCTRL2 = (96) << 24 | (640 + 16 + 48) = 0x600002C0 | ||
- | |||
- | ====== Vsync HW_LCDIF_VDCTRL1 ====== | ||
- | |||
- | For the LCD, this is by default = 0x0000011a (dec. 282) | ||
- | |||
- | * Per vertical line: 480 horizontal lines | ||
- | * Front porch: 11 horizontal lines | ||
- | * Sync pulse: 2 horizontal lines | ||
- | * back porch: 31 horizontal lines | ||
- | |||
- | so HW_LCDIF_VDCTRL1 = 542 (0x21e) | ||
- | |||
- | ====== HW_LCDIF_VDCTRL0 ====== | ||

- | 0x2 | ||
- | </file> | ||

- | |||
- | ====== HW_LCDIF_TRANSFER_COUNT ====== | ||
- | By default, (32x0x240 LCD) = 0x00f00140 | ||
- | |||
- | For 640x480 VGA it should be = 0x01E00280 | ||
- | |||
- | ====== HW_CLKCTRL_PIX ====== | ||
- | |||
- | CLKGATE = 0 | ||
- | DIV = 0x11 | ||
- | |||
- | ===== Results? ===== | ||
- | |||
- | HSync = 31.4Khz (should be 31.46) | ||
- | |||
- | Vsync = 58 Hz (should be 60.04) | ||
- | |||
- | Vsync negative pulse = 63.7 uS (should be 63.57) (it is low from the negative edge of one HSync to another negative Hsync edge) | ||
- | |||
- | Hsync negative pulse = 4.34 uS (should be 3.81) |
