38.4. Pixels in Parallel Converter Registers

Each register is either read-only (RO) or read-write (RW). Writes to RO registers complete but the IP ignores them. A read to any RW register also completes, but returns undefined data by default. These registers are RW to save FPGA resources. To read back the values you write to these registers, you must turn on Debug features when you configure the IP.
Table 681.  Pixels in Parallel IP RegistersIn the software API the register names appear with a prefix of INTEL_VVP, INTEL_VVP_CORE or INTEL_VVP_CLIPPER as appropriate and with an optional REG suffix
Address Register Access Description
Parameterization registers
0x0000 VID_PID RO

Read this register to retrieve the pixels in parallel converter product ID.

This register always returns 0x6AF7_0239.

0x0004 VERSION RO

Read this register for the IP version information.

0x0008 LITE_MODE RO

Read this register to determine if Lite mode is on.

This register always returns 1 as the Avalon memory-mapped control interface is only available when you turn on Lite mode.

0x000C DEBUG_ENABLED RO

Read this register to determine if Debug features is on.

This register returns 1 if reads to other registers designated as RW return the last value the IP writes to the register, or an undefined value.

0x0010 to 0x011F - - Unused
Control and debug registers

For more information, refer to Control Packets

0x0120 IMG_INFO_WIDTH RW Set the expected width of incoming video fields.
0x0124 to 0x0130 - - Unused.
0x0134 IMG_INFO_SUBSAMPLING RW The expected chroma subsampling of the incoming video fields.
0x0138 to 0x013C - - Unused.
0x0140 STATUS RO

Bit 0: Status bit.

1 means the pixels in parallel converter is processing a video field, 0 otherwise.
