When this bit = 1, the LCD display image is rotated 90° clockwise. Please refer to Section
15, “SwivelView™” on page 201 for application and limitations.
When this bit = 0, there is no hardware effect.
This bit in conjunction with SwivelView™ Enable Bit 1 achieves the following hardware
rotations.

Note
REG[018h] bit 7 must be set to 1 when the flicker filter is enabled.
Note
The Flicker Filter reduces the “flickering” effect seen on interlaced displays by averag-
ing adjacent lines on the TV display. This “flickering” is caused by sharp vertical image
transitions that occur over one line (1 vertical pixel). For example, one pixel high lines,
edges of window boxes, etc. Flickering occurs because these high resolution lines are ef-
fectively displayed at half the refresh frequency due to interlacing.
