-====== VSync ====== 
  
-We want to get the Vsync to about 60hz 
  
-By default, the '​internal'​ LCD sync rate is 117 Hz +====== Horizontal Sync HW_LCDIF_VDCTRL2======
-<​code>​ +
-chumby-:/ # cat /​proc/​driver/​chumbyfwfb/​fb_stats +

-This is set by the  HW_CLKCTRL_PIX register+For the LCD, this is by default = 0x45000190
  
-<​code>​ +We want...
-chumby-:/ # regutil -r HW_CLKCTRL_PIX +
-Value at 0x80040060: 0x0000001d +
-</​code>​+
  
-Lets divide the frequency by 2 which means multiplying the divider by two+  * Per horizontal line: 640 pixels 
 +  * Front porch: 16 pixels 
 +  * Sync pulse width: 96 pixels 
 +  * Back porch: 48 pixels
  
-<​code>​ +SO!
-chumby-:/ # regutil -w HW_CLKCTRL_PIX=0x38 +
-Setting 0x80040060: 0x0000000e -> 0x00000038 ok +
-</​code>​+
  
-<code> +HW_LCDIF_VDCTRL2 = (96) << ​24 | (640 + 16 + 96+ 48) = 0x60000320

-Actually, to get the closest to 60 Hz. I went with HW_CLKCTRL_PIX=0x37 (so says the tek '​scope)+====== Vsync HW_LCDIF_VDCTRL1 ======
  
-How the Hsync is 17.08 KHz (we want 2x that 31.46 KHz)+For the LCD, this is by default = 0x0000011a (dec282) 
 + 
 +We want... 
 + 
 +  * Per vertical line: 480 horizontal lines 
 +  * Front porch: 11 horizontal lines 
 +  * Sync pulse: 2 horizontal lines 
 +  * back porch: 31 horizontal lines 
 + 
 +so HW_LCDIF_VDCTRL1 = 524 (0x20C)

 + 
 +  * MUX_SYNC_SIGNALS = 0 
 +  * VSYNC_ONLY = 1 (?) 
 +  * HORIZONTAL_WAIT_CNT = 48 (h back porch) + 96 (sync pulse) = 0xDE and then  
 +  * VERTICAL_WAIT_CNT = 31 (v back porch) + 2 (sync pulse) = 0x21 
 + 
 +-> 0x00DE0021 
 + 
 +====== HW_LCDIF_TRANSFER_COUNT ====== 
 +By default, (32x0x240 LCD) =  0x00f00140 
 + 
 +For 640x480 VGA it should be = 0x01E00280 
 + 
 +====== HW_CLKCTRL_PIX ====== 
 + 
 +So the main clock is 454 right? 
 + 
 +To get a pixel clock of 25.175 MHz, 454 MHz / 18 -> DIV = 0x12 
 +CLKGATE = 0 
 +DIV = 0x12 -> CLK of 21 Mhz 
 + 
 +Hmm, guess our chip isnt running at 454? Or is it our scope? Try 0x0F for 25MHz  which matches with eveything else. Which means we're running at 375MHz? 
 + 
 +===== Results? ===== 
 +PIXCLK = 0x0F 
 + 
 +HSync = 31.3Khz (should be 31.46
 + 
 +Vsync = 59.75 Hz (should be 60.04) 
 + 
 +Vsync negative pulse = 63.9 uS (should be 63.57) (it is low from the negative edge of one HSync to another negative Hsync edge) 
 + 
 +Hsync negative pulse = 3.83 uS (should be 3.81) 
 + 
 +HSync Back porch = 5 uS (should be 1.9?), Hsync front porch = ~14.2uS (should be 0.65?)
