Blinking
Blinking is a function in which displayed characters are displayed intermittently. By specifying
blinking in display data RAM, text can be made to blink in character units. The blinking period
can be chosen from two values through the screen control register. Blinking is supported both in
superimposed mode and text display mode.
Digital outputs (YCO, R, G, and B) can be made to blink or not blink through the digital output
specification register. The YBO digital output cannot be made to blink.
For details on display data RAM, refer to section 29.3.7, Display Data RAM (OSDRAM).
For an explanation of each register, refer to section 29.5.9, Screen Control Register (DCNTL), and
section 29.7.3, Digital Output Specification Register (DOUT).
Buttons cannot be made to blink.
For notes on blinking, refer to section 29.8.3, Note 3 on Font Creation (Blinking).
