14.2 LCDC Theory of Operation
The LCDC fetches data from Static Memory. The AHB master interface, which is con-
nected directly to the AHB system bus, transfers display data from the memory to the LCD
DMA FIFOs. The AHB master interface loads the upper panel base address into the AHB
address incrementer when a new frame is recognized. It monitors both the upper and
lower LCD DMA FIFO levels, and asserts HBUSREQM to request display data from
memory, filling them to a level above the programmed watermark.
