ILLV[85h[5]]); see Table 31.

9.5.2 Video FIFO (subaddress 86h)
The video FIFO at the scaler output contains 32 double words. That corresponds to
64 pixels in 16-bit Y-CB-CR 4 : 2 : 2 format. But as the entire scaler can act as a pipeline
buffer, the actual available buffer capacity for the image port is much higher, and can
exceed beyond a video line.
The image port and the video FIFO, can operate with the video source clock (synchronous
mode) or with an externally provided clock (asynchronous and burst mode), as
appropriate for the VGA controller or attached frame buffer.
The video FIFO provides 4 internal flags, reporting to what extent the FIFO is actually
filled.
These are:
• The FIFO Almost Empty (FAE) flag
• The FIFO Combined Flag (FCF) or FIFO filled, which is set at almost full level and
reset, with hysteresis, only after the level crosses below the almost empty mark
• The FIFO Almost Full (FAF) flag
• The FIFO Overflow (FOVL) flag
The trigger levels for FAE and FAF are programmable by FFL[1:0] 86h[3:2] (16, 24, 28,
full) and FEL[1:0] 86h[1:0] (16, 8, 4, empty).
The state of this flag can be seen on pins IGP0 or IGP1. The pin mapping is defined by
subaddresses 84h and 85h; see Section 10.5.
