        16.2. Mixer IP Parameters
 The Mixer IP offers run-time and compile-time parameters. 
  
 
  | Parameter | Value | Description | 
|---|---|---|
| Video data format | ||
| Lite mode | On or off | Turn on to use the lite variant of the Intel FPGA Streaming Video protocol. | 
| Bits per color sample | 8 to 16 | Select the number of bits per color sample. | 
| Number of color planes | 1 to 4 | Select the number of pixels transmitted every clock cycle at the input interface. | 
| Number of pixels in parallel | 1 to 8 | Select the number of pixels transmitted every clock cycle at the output interface. | 
| Control settings | ||
| Memory mapped control interface | On or off | Turn on to enable the Avalon memory-mapped control agent interface and allow runtime configuration via the register map. You must have the Avalon memory-mapped control agent interface if you turn on Lite mode. | 
| Algorithm settings | ||
| Number of layers | 2 to 8 | Total number of mixers layers, including the base layer (layer 0). | 
| Do rounding | On or off | Turn on to apply round-half-up logic at the end of the alpha blending mathematics for each layer. If this feature is not enabled then all fraction bits are cropped without rounding. | 
| Layer 1: Use restricted offsets | On or off | Turn on for the restricted offsets for mixer layer 1. | 
| Layer 1: Alpha blending mode | No blending, Alpha from command, Alpha from data, Alpha from command or data | Set the alpha blending mode for mixer layer 1. | 
| Layer 2: Use restricted offsets | On or off | Turn on for the restricted offsets for mixer layer 2. | 
| Layer 2: Alpha blending mode | No blending, Alpha from command, Alpha from data, Alpha from command or data | Set the alpha blending mode for mixer layer 2. | 
| Layer 3: Use restricted offsets | On or off | Turn on for the restricted offsets for mixer layer 3. | 
| Layer 3: Alpha blending mode | No blending, Alpha from command, Alpha from data, Alpha from command or data | Set the alpha blending mode for mixer layer 3. | 
| Layer 4: Use restricted offsets | On or off | Turn on for the restricted offsets for mixer layer 4. | 
| Layer 4: Alpha blending mode | No blending, Alpha from command, Alpha from data, Alpha from command or data | Set the alpha blending mode for mixer layer 4. | 
| Layer 5: Use restricted offsets | On or off | Turn on for the restricted offsets for mixer layer 5. | 
| Layer 5: Alpha blending mode | No blending, Alpha from command, Alpha from data, Alpha from command or data | Set the alpha blending mode for mixer layer 5. | 
| Layer 6: Use restricted offsets | On or off | Turn on for the restricted offsets for mixer layer 6. | 
| Layer 6: Alpha blending mode | No blending, Alpha from command, Alpha from data, Alpha from command or data | Set the alpha blending mode for mixer layer 6. | 
| Layer 7: Use restricted offsets | On or off | Turn on for the restricted offsets for mixer layer 7. | 
| Layer 7: Alpha blending mode | No blending, Alpha from command, Alpha from data, Alpha from command or data | Set the alpha blending mode for mixer layer 7. | 
| General | ||
| Extra pipeline level | 0 to 3 | Set the number of additional register stages to add the pipeline. | 
| Debug features | On or off | Turn on for readback of writeable registers via the control agent interface. | 
| Separate clock for control interface | On or off | Turn on for a separate clock for the control agent interface. |
