14.3.2.5 Upper Panel Frame Buffer Base Address Register
The UPBASE Register is one of two LCD DMA Base Address Registers (the other is
LPBASE). Together with LPBASE, this Read/Write register programs the base address of
the frame buffer.
UPBase is used for:
• Single-panel STN displays
• The upper panel of dual-panel STN displays.
UPBase (and LPBase for dual panels) must be initialized before enabling the LCDC.
Optionally the value can be changed mid-frame to allow double-buffered video displays to
be created. These registers are copied to the corresponding current registers at each LCD
vertical synchronization. This event causes the LNBU bit and an optional interrupt to be
generated. The LNBU bit indicates that it is safe to update both the UPBASE and LPBASE
Registers. The interrupt can be used to reprogram the base address when generating
double-buffered video.
