Direct Drive LCD Design Guide 2. Driver Configuration The LCD Direct Driver is configured through the setting of macro definitions. These macros are illustrated in the sample code. The following table briefly describes the location of each of these macros and their location in LCD Direct Drive demonstration code. For examples of each macro usage, refer to the demonstration code. 2.1 LCD Direct Drive Configuration Macros Macro Name Description Units Demo Location System Clock Configura

Direct Drive LCD Design Guide 2.2 Frame Buffer Configuration The frame buffer is the external memory area that is used to store the 16bpp image data that will be presented on the LCD screen. The quantity of frame buffers is typically 2 or more. This allows the MCU to be updating one frame wile the ExDMA is transferring the other frame to the LCD panel, this behavior allows for fast transitions and the user does not see operations occurring in the non-displayed buffers. Typically, the fra

Direct Drive LCD Design Guide 2.3 Driver Mode Selection There are several different modes of operation currently supported in the Direct Drive LCD driver. The selection of operation mode depends on RAM type selection and LCD panel resolution. 2.3.1 SRAM_DD Defining this macro selects a mode of operation that utilizes SRAM (or PSRAM) as the frame buffer. In this operation mode, the ExDMA ACK signal supplies the Dot Clock during data transfer and the TPU supplies the dot clock during blanki

Direct Drive LCD Design Guide Figure 5 H8SX SDRAM in Cluster Mode Note 1: To create the highest LCD Dot Clock frequency on the H8SX requires using cluster mode. In this mode, EDACK is not generated and an equivalent signal must be generated. The above circuit creates the necessary timing. 2.4 Driver Mode Configuration The driver characteristics are configured with the following macros. 2.4.1 DOT_CLOCK_FREQUENCY_DATA This macro configures the dot clock frequency during the data tran

These values will have to be determined from the schematics on the hardware platform. As an example, the demonstration code can be compared the LCD direct drive hardware schematics. 2.6.1 FRAME_CS This is the numeric value of the CS pin used for the frame buffer, for example if CS2 i

Typical LCD Panel Connections This section illustrates typical connections on an LCD panel and how they are interfaced to the MCU in a Direct Drive configuration. 3.1 LCD panel interface Figure 7 Example Connections for a Kyocera TFT-LCD Panel 3.1.1 Power Supplies Many panels require multiple supplies. Check your panel’s specification to see how many ground and different voltage level connections it requires. In the example case of a Kyocera 320x

Displays in existing media systems usually have refresh rates between 48Hz and 120Hz to avoid visible flicker. HSync, VSync and Dot Clock are all generated using TPU channels of the H8S or H8SX microcontrollers. The TPU allows timer compare actions which synchronize these signals to the ExDMA request line. This ensures that the clocks are generated when valid data is available on the bus. 3.
