7.4 Registers
This section describes the registers used to set portrait mode operation.
The Screen 1 Start Address registers must be set correctly for portrait mode. In portrait
mode the Start Address registers form a byte offset, as opposed to a word offset, into
display memory.
The initial required offset is the portrait m ode stride (in bytes) less one.
The line byte count register informs the S1D13705 of the stride, in bytes, between two
consecutive lines of display in portrait mode. The Line Byte Count register only affects
portrait mode operation and are ignored when the S1D13705 is in landscape di splay mod e.
The portrait mode register contains several items for portrait mode support.
The first is the Portrait Mode Enable bit. When this bit is “0” the S1D13705 is in l andscape
mode and the remainder of the settings in this register as well as the Line Byte Count in
REG[1Ch] are ignored. Set this bit to “1” to enable portrait mode.
