CRT VSync Polarity.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

0

= Positive Polarity (default).

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

1

= Negative Polarity.

CRT HSync Polarity.

Page Select. In Odd/Even Memory Map Mode 1 (GR6), this bit selects the upper or lower 64 KB page in

 

 

 

 

display memory for processor access:

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

0

= Upper page (default)

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

1

= Lower page.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Selects between two 64 KB pages of frame buffer memory during standard VGA odd/even modes

 

 

 

 

(modes 0h through 5h). Bit 1 of register GR06 can also program this bit in other modes. Note that this bit

 

 

 

 

is always set to 1 by the driver software.

Clock Select. These bits usually select the dot clock source for the CRT interface. The bits select the dot

 

 

 

 

clock in standard VGA modes.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

00 = CLK0, 25 MHz (for standard VGA modes with 640 pixel horizontal resolution) (default)

 

 

 

 

 

 

01 = CLK1, 28 MHz. (for standard VGA modes with 720 pixel horizontal resolution)

 

 

 

 

 

 

1x = CLK2 (left “reserved” in standard VGA, used for all extended modes 6 MHz–135 MHz)

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

1

 

A0000BFFFFh Access Enable. VGA Compatibility bit enables access to local video memory (frame

 

 

 

 

buffer) at A0000BFFFFh. When disabled, accesses to system memory are blocked in this region (by not

 

 

 

 

asserting DEVSEL#). This bit does not block processor access to the video linear frame buffer at other

 

 

 

 

addresses.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

0

= Prevent processor access to frame buffer (default).

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

1

= Allow processor access to frame buffer.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

0

 

I/O Address Select. This bit selects 3Bxh or 3Dxh as the I/O address for the CRT Controller registers,

 

 

 

 

the Feature Control Register (FCR), and Input Status Register 1 (ST01). Presently ignored (whole range

 

 

 

 

is claimed), but will “ignore” 3Bx for color configuration or 3Dx for monochrome.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

0

= Select 3Bxh I/O address (MDA emulation) (default).

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

1

= Select 3Dxh I/O address (CGA emulation).

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

NOTES:

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

1.In standard VGA modes, bits 7 and 6 indicate which of the three standard VGA vertical resolutions the standard VGA display should use. All extended modes, including those with a vertical resolution of 480 scan lines, use a setting of 0 for both of these bits. This setting was “reserved” in the VGA standard.
