# Display Parameters

从事与显示系统有关的工作时，常接触一些术语和概念，并涉及到像素时钟与点时钟的计算，现总结如下：

Display Parameters
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
Sometimes, configuring the properties associated with your display panel might be the only driver changes that you need to make to enable video on your device, so let's start learning about video drivers by looking at common display parameters. We will assume that the associated driver conforms to the frame buffer interface, and use the fbset utility to obtain display characteristics:
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
```bash
|
|||
|
|
$ fbset
|
|||
|
|
mode "1024x768-60"
|
|||
|
|
# D: 65.003 MHz, H: 48.365 kHz, V: 60.006 Hz
|
|||
|
|
geometry 1024 768 1024 768 8
|
|||
|
|
timings 15384 168 16 30 2 136 6
|
|||
|
|
hsync high
|
|||
|
|
vsync high
|
|||
|
|
rgba 8/0,8/0,8/0,0/0
|
|||
|
|
endmode
|
|||
|
|
```
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
The D: value in the output stands for the dotclock, which is the speed at which the video hardware draws pixels on the display. The value of 65.003MHz in the preceding output means that it'll take (1/65.003*1000000) or about 15,384 picoseconds for the video controller to draw a single pixel. This duration is called the pixclock and is shown as the first numeric parameter in the line starting with timings. The numbers against "geometry" announce that the visible and virtual resolutions are 1024x768 (SVGA) and that the bits required to store information pertaining to a pixel is 8.
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
The H: value specifies the horizontal scan rate, which is the number of horizontal display lines scanned by the video hardware in one second. This is the inverse of the pixclock times the X-resolution. The V: value is the rate at which the entire display is refreshed. This is the inverse of the pixclock times the visible X-resolution times the visible Y-resolution, which is around 60Hz in this example. In other words, the LCD is refreshed 60 times in a second.
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
Video controllers issue a horizontal sync (HSYNC) pulse at the end of each line and a vertical sync (VSYNC) pulse after each display frame. The durations of HSYNC (in terms of pixels) and VSYNC (in terms of pixel lines) are shown as the last two parameters in the line starting with "timings." The larger your display, the bigger the likely values of HSYNC and VSYNC. The four numbers before the HSYNC duration in the timings line announce the length of the right display margin (or horizontal front porch), left margin (or horizontal back porch), lower margin (or vertical front porch), and upper margin (or vertical back porch), respectively. Documentation/fb/framebuffer.txt and the man page of fb.modes pictorially show these parameters.
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
To tie these parameters together, let's calculate the pixclock value for a given refresh rate, which is 60.006Hz in our example:
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
```blk
|
|||
|
|
dotclock = (X-resolution + left margin + right margin
|
|||
|
|
+ HSYNC length) * (Y-resolution + upper margin
|
|||
|
|
+ lower margin + VSYNC length) * refresh rate
|
|||
|
|
= (1024 + 168 + 16 + 136) * (768 + 30 + 2 + 6) * 60.006
|
|||
|
|
= 65.003 MHz
|
|||
|
|
pixclock = 1e12/dotclock
|
|||
|
|
= 15384 picoseconds (which matches with the fbset output
|
|||
|
|
above)
|
|||
|
|
```
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
## 2.术语解析
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
* left margin：行切换，从同步到绘图之间的延迟，表示从水平同步信号开始到一行的有效数据开始之间的 VCLK 的个数，等同于 HBP(horizontal back porch)；
|
|||
|
|
* right margin：行切换，从绘图到同步之间的延迟，表示一行的有效数据结束到下一个水平同步信号开始之间的 VCLK 的个数，等同于 HFP(horizontal front porth)；
|
|||
|
|
* upper margin：帧切换，从同步到绘图之间的延迟，表示在一帧图像开始时，垂直同步信号以后的无效的行数，等同于 VBP(vertical back porch)；
|
|||
|
|
* lower margin：帧切换，从绘图到同步之间的延迟，表示在一帧图像结束后，垂直同步信号以前的无效的行数，等同于 VFB(vertical front porch)；
|
|||
|
|
* hsync len：水平同步的长度，表示水平同步信号的宽度，用 VCLK 计算，等同于 HSPW(horizontal sync pulse width)；
|
|||
|
|
* vsync len：垂直同步的长度，表示垂直同步脉冲的宽度，用行数计算，等同于 VSPW(vertical sync pulse width)。
|
