• Availability of a combination of these digital video input and output port configurations, control signals
for multiple 8-bit ports, as well as separate synchronization signals is limited by the device pin
multiplexing (for details, see Section 4.5). The following video inputs and outputs are not multiplexed
and are always available:
– SD DAC composite, S-video, component out
– HD DAC component out
– HDMI output (same as VOUT[1])
– 16-bit VOUT[0] (embedded sync)
– Single 16-bit, dual 8-bit VIN[0] (embedded sync).
• Graphics features:
– Three independently-generated graphics layers.
– Each supports full-screen resolution graphics in HD, SD or both.
– Up and down scaler optimized for graphics.
– Global and pixel-level alpha blending supported.
• Discrete external HSYNC and VSYNC signals for the HD-DAC are available on silicon revision 2.x
devices. These signals are mapped to the following pins (for details, see Section 3.2.20):
– HSYNC - AR5, AT9, AR8
– VSYNC - AL5, AP9, AL9
The functionality of these pins is set using the SPARE_CTRL0 register (address: 0x4814 0724).
Figure 8-67 and Table 8-70 describe the SPARE_CTRL0 register.
Note: When changing this register, read original value and write back same value in Reserved
fields.
For example, these are the steps required to use the pins AR8 and AL9 as the DAC_HSYNC and
VSYNC signals:
1. Set the PINCTRLx registers for AR8 and AL9 as follows:
• 0x4814 0894 = 0x00000001
• 0x4814 0898 = 0x00000001
2. Select analog VENC sync out option as follows:
• 0x4814 0724 = 0x00000004
