A1T Bit Descriptions
Bit Name Description
63:19 RSVD (RO) Reserved (Read Only). Reads back as 0.
18 PPA1_EN Per-Pixel Alpha Window 1 Enable. Enable per-pixel alpha functionality for alpha win-
dow 1.
0: Single alpha value for entire alpha window 1 (ALPHA1_MUL).
1: Each pixel has its own alpha value defined in the upper 8 bits of the graphics bus.
17 LOAD_ALPHA
(WO)
Load Alpha (Write Only). When set to 1, this bit causes the Video Processor to load the
alpha value (bits [31:24] of the video data path) multiplied with the alpha multiplier bits
(ALPHA1_MUL, bits [7:0]) at the start of the next frame. This bit is cleared by the de-
assertion of VSYNC.
16 ALPHA1_WIN_
EN
Alpha Window 1 Enable. Enable bit for alpha window 1.
0: Disable alpha window 1.
1: Enable alpha window 1.
15:8 ALPHA1_INC Alpha Window 1 Increment. Specifies the alpha value increment/decrement. This is a
signed 8-bit value that is added to the alpha value for each frame. The MSB (bit 15) indi-
cates the sign (i.e., increment or decrement). When this value reaches either the maxi-
mum or the minimum alpha value (255 or 0), it keeps that value (i.e., it is not
incremented/decremented) until it is reloaded via LOAD_ALPHA (bit 17).
7:0 ALPHA1_MUL Alpha Window 1 Value. Specifies the alpha value to be used for this window.

Bit Name Description
63:28 RSVD (RO) Reserved (Read Only). Reads back as 0.
27:16 ALPHA2_X_
END
Alpha Window 2 X End. Indicates the horizontal end position of alpha window 2. This
value is calculated according to the following formula:
Value = Desired screen position + (H_TOTAL – H_SYNC_END) – 1. (Note 1)
15:12 RSVD (RO) Reserved (Read Only). Reads back as 0.
11:0 ALPHA2_X_
START
Alpha Window 2 X Start. Indicates the horizontal start position of alpha window 2. This
value is calculated according to the following formula:
Value = Desired screen position + (H_TOTAL – H_SYNC_END) – 2. (Note 1)
Note 1. H_TOTAL and H_SYNC_END are values programmed in the Display Controller module registers.
The value of (H_TOTAL – H_SYNC_END) is sometimes referred to as “horizontal back porch.”
