Start Address Stop Address Register Description Additional Info
$AF:0400 $AF:0400 VDMA_CONTROL_REG VDMA control register
Bit Name Purpose
$01 VDMA_CTRL_Enable Enabled the VDMA transfer block
$02 VDMA_CTRL_1D_2D 0 - 1D (Linear) Transfer, 1 - 2D (Block) Transfer
$04 VDMA_CTRL_TRF_Fill 0 - Transfer Src -> Dst, 1 - Fill Destination with "Byte2Write"
$08 VDMA_CTRL_Int_Enable Set to 1 to Enable the Generation of Interrupt when the Transfer is over.
$10 VDMA_CTRL_SysRAM_Src Set to 1 to Indicate that the Source is the System Ram Memory
$20 VDMA_CTRL_SysRAM_Dst Set to 1 to Indicate that the Destination is the System Ram Memory
$80 VDMA_CTRL_Start_TRF Set to 1 To Begin Process, Need to Cleared before, you can start another
$AF:0401 $AF:0401 VDMA_STATUS_REG / VDMA_BYTE_2_WRITE On write, accepts the byte to use in the fill function.

On read, this register shows the status of the VDMA:

Bit Name Purpose
$01 VDMA_STAT_Size_Err If Set to 1, Overall Size is Invalid
$02 VDMA_STAT_Dst_Add_Err If Set to 1, Destination Address Invalid
$04 VDMA_STAT_Src_Add_Err If Set to 1, Source Address Invalid
$80 VDMA_STAT_VDMA_IPS If Set to 1, VDMA Transfer in Progress. Do not attempt to access VRAM while a VDMA is in progress!
$AF:0402 $AF:0402 VDMA_SRC_ADDY_L 24-bit address of the source block (relative to start of video RAM)
$AF:0403 $AF:0403 VDMA_SRC_ADDY_M
$AF:0404 $AF:0404 VDMA_SRC_ADDY_H
$AF:0405 $AF:0405 VDMA_DST_ADDY_L 24-bit address of the source block (relative to start of video RAM)
$AF:0406 $AF:0406 VDMA_DST_ADDY_M
$AF:0407 $AF:0407 VDMA_DST_ADDY_H
$AF:0408 $AF:0408 VDMA_SIZE_L / VDMA_X_SIZE_L For 1-D DMA, 24-bit size of transfer in bytes. For 2-D, 16-bit width of block
$AF:0409 $AF:0409 VDMA_SIZE_M / VDMA_X_SIZE_H
$AF:040A $AF:040A VDMA_SIZE_H / VDMA_Y_SIZE_L For 2-D transfer, 16-bit height of block
$AF:040B $AF:040B VDMA_RESERVED_0 / VDMA_Y_SIZE_H
$AF:040C $AF:040C VDMA_SRC_STRIDE_L Number of bytes per row in a 2-D source block
$AF:040D $AF:040D VDMA_SRC_STRIDE_H
$AF:040E $AF:040E VDMA_DST_STRIDE_L Number of bytes per row in a 2-D destination block
$AF:040F $AF:040F VDMA_DST_STRIDE_H
