SCLK
I
Serial data clock. SCLK is the same as the signal that drives VRAM serial data registers. SCLK allows the SMJ34020A
to track the VRAM serial-data-register count, providing serial-register transfer and midline-reload cycles. (SCLK can
be asynchronous to VCLK; however, it typically has a frequency that is a multiple of the VCLK frequency).
VCLK
I
Video clock. VCLK is derived from a multiple of the video system’s dot clock and is used internally to drive the video
timing logic.
VSYNC
I/O
Vertical sync. VSYNC
is the vertical sync signal that controls external video circuitry. VSYNC can be programmed to
be either an input or an output by modifying a control bit in the DPYCTL register.
As an output, VSYNC is the active-low vertical-sync signal generated by the SMJ34020A’s on-chip video timers.
As an input, VSYNC synchronizes the SMJ34020A video-control registers to externally generated vertical-sync
pulses. The actual synchronization can be programmed to begin at any horizontal line; this allows for any
external pipelining of signals.
Immediately following reset, VSYNC is configured as an input.
