Example 6: Initializing the Ink Layer
The following example places an Ink Layer at the end of a 2M byte display buffer.
SwivelView™ modes require software rotation of the Ink Layer. Color 0 is set to black, and
color 1 is set to white.
For a system with a 640x480 LCD display, the ink layer size is calculated as follows.
InkLayerSize
The Ink Layer must be allocated in 8K byte blocks. The value of the LCD Ink/Cursor Start
Address register is determined from the following table and calculation.
Table 8-4: Ink Layer Start Address Encoding
Ink/Cursor Start Address Bits [7:0]
0
1 - FFh
n
Fractional values cannot be programmed, therefore round up to an address of 10 (0Ah).
This reserves 10 x 8192 = 81,920 bytes for the Ink Layer from the end of display buffer.
Always round up the Ink/Cursor Start Address when calculating, otherwise insufficient
memory will be allocated for the Ink Layer.
