In my use cases only HREF is used as horizontal synchronization signal, i.e. physical bus interface has this signals: ->| PCLK ->| VSYNC ->| HREF ->| DATA[0:7] ->| FIELD For interlaced mode FIELD can be connected to the horizontal synchronization signal. For this case there is InvPolHSYNC bit in the host interface registers to indicate the polarity. There are 5 bits actually: InvPolPCLK InvPolVSYNC (vertical sychronization) InvPolHREF (horizontal synchronization) InvPolHSYNC (for interlaced mode only, FIELD port = horizontal sync. signal) InvPolFIELD (interlaced mode, FIELD port = FIELD signal) IMHO keeping different names for synchronization and 'data valid' signals is more clear. > > Thanks > Guennadi > >>> similar signal called WEN, and I've seen other chips using DVAL.
