30.9.1
Transmission of commands in Video mode
The DSI Host supports the transmission of commands, both in High-Speed and Low-Power,
while in Video mode. The DSI Host uses Blanking or Low-Power (BLLP) periods to transmit
commands inserted through the APB Generic interface. Those periods correspond to the
gray areas of
Commands are transmitted in the blanking periods after the following packets/states:
•
Vertical Sync Start (VSS) packets, if the Video Sync pulses are not enabled
•
Horizontal Sync End (HSE) packets, in the VSA, VBP, and VFP regions
•
Horizontal Sync Start (HSS) packets, if the Video Sync pulses are not enabled in the
VSA, VBP, and VFP regions
•
Horizontal Active (HACT) state
Besides the areas corresponding to BLLP, large commands can also be sent during the last
line of a frame. In that case, the line time for the Video mode is violated and the edpihalt
signal is set to request the DPI video timing signals to remain inactive. Only if a command
does not fit into any BLLP area, it is postponed to the last line, causing the violation of the
line time for the Video mode, as illustrated in
