IIT AGX series
AGX-10 Original AGX chipset. Actually consists of the AGX-10 and -11.
AGX-14
AGX-15 Local Bus
AGX-16 PCI support. More clocks
The AGX chips are basically an XGA engine with a Trident VGA part tagged on
On the AGX-10 and -11 the XGA registers are at 21x0h-21xFh, while the AGX-14
, -15 and -16 always have them at 2160h-216Fh.
The AGX chips do not implement the virtual memory feature of the XGA and the
hardware cursor is different from the XGA cursor.
2164h-2167h are not implemented.
216Ah index 4,Ch,Dh,38h-3Dh,62h-65h,6Bh are not implemented
M+11h bits 0-4 not implemented
Map width must be a power of two.
Monochrome Map Mask (M+7Ch bit 6-7 = 2) not supported.
3C4h index 0Bh (R): Chip Version
bit 0-7 Chip ID. Always 2 (like 8800CS)
Note: Writing to index Bh selects old mode registers.
Reading from index Bh selects new mode registers.
Note: Writing to this register in order to force old mode registers
should be done with two 8bit writes, not one 16bit write.
3C4h index 0Dh (R/W): Old Mode Control 2
bit 0-2 Emulation mode
0=VGA, 3=EGA, 5=CGA,MDA,Hercules
4 Enable Paging mode if set. If set the CRTC offset (3d4h index 13h)
should be multiplied by 2, and the Display Start Address (3d4h index
0Ch & 0Dh + 1Eh bit 5 and 3C4h Old Mode index 0Eh bit 0) is in units
of 8 bytes rather than 4 (256 color modes only).
5 DRAM clock enabled if set.
3C4h index 0Dh (R/W): New Mode Control 2
Note: The old/new Mode Control 1/2 registers are selected by
reading and writing the Chip version register (index Bh).
3C4h index 0Eh (R/W): Old Mode Control 1
bit 1-2 128kb Bank number (0-3)
3 16 bit video interface if set
3C4h index 0Eh (R/W): New Mode Control 1
bit 0-3 64k Bank number. When writing to this field XOR with 02h, when
reading from this field no XOR is needed.
4-6 Reserved
Note: The old/new Mode Control 1/2 registers are selected by
reading and writing the Chip version register (index Bh).
3C4h index 0Fh (R/W): Power-up Mode 2
bit 0-3 Switch settings
4 Bus type
5 If set I/O address are at 3xxh, else at 2xxh.
6 Enable ON-Card ROM if set
7 16 bit ROM access enabled if set
3d4h index 1Eh (R/W): Module Testing Register
bit 0-1 ??
2 Vertical interlace if set. In interlaced modes the CRTC offset (3d4h
index 13h) is the number of bytes in TWO scanlines. Note that in
interlaced modes the line doubling caused by index 9 bits 0-4,7 is
unlikely to work, as the (even,odd) linepair is repeated rather than
each individual line causing stripes.
3 If set Load fonts from Bottom, from top if clear
4 ??
5 CRTC starting address bit 16
6-7 ??
3d4h index 1Fh (R/W): Software Programming Register
bit 0-1 Memory size 0=256k, 1=512k, 2=768k, 3=1M.
2-3 ??
Note: This register set by software
3d4h index 22h (R): CPU Latch Read Back
bit 0-7 Data Latch value for current read plane.
3d4h index 24h (R): Attribute State Read Back
bit 0-6 Reserved
7 Attribute Controller State
If set the next write to 3C0h will go to the data
register, if clear to the index register.
3d4h index 26h (R): Attribute Index Read Back
bit 0-7 Attribute Index Register value
