STM32F4 Discovery and SSD2119 LCD driver with the LCD_35T example

Former Member
Former Member over 9 years ago

I'm trying to loading the LCD_35T example on an STM32F4 Discovery connected to a 320x240 TFT LCD with the SSD2119 driver (connected like in the expansion board).

What I get is that I'm not able to write on all the pixels of the display. I suppose it is a problem of register initialization:

  LCD_WriteReg(SSD2119_SLEEP_MODE_1_REG, 0x0001);
  // Set initial power parameters.
  LCD_WriteReg(SSD2119_PWR_CTRL_5_REG, 0x002B);
  LCD_WriteReg(SSD2119_VCOM_OTP_1_REG, 0x0006);
  // Start the oscillator.
  LCD_WriteReg(SSD2119_OSC_START_REG, 0x0001);
  // Set pixel format and basic display orientation (scanning direction).
  LCD_WriteReg(SSD2119_OUTPUT_CTRL_REG, 0x72EF); //72-30EF
  LCD_WriteReg(SSD2119_LCD_DRIVE_AC_CTRL_REG, 0x0600);
  // Exit sleep mode.
  LCD_WriteReg(SSD2119_SLEEP_MODE_1_REG, 0x0000);
  _delay_(5);
  // Configure pixel color format and MCU interface parameters.
  LCD_WriteReg(SSD2119_ENTRY_MODE_REG, ENTRY_MODE_DEFAULT);
  // Set analog parameters
  LCD_WriteReg(SSD2119_SLEEP_MODE_2_REG, 0x0999);
  LCD_WriteReg(SSD2119_ANALOG_SET_REG, 0x3800);
  // Enable the display
  LCD_WriteReg(SSD2119_DISPLAY_CTRL_REG, 0x0033);
  // Set VCIX2 voltage to 6.1V.
  LCD_WriteReg(SSD2119_PWR_CTRL_2_REG, 0x0005);
  // Configure gamma correction.
  LCD_WriteReg(SSD2119_GAMMA_CTRL_1_REG, 0x0000);
  LCD_WriteReg(SSD2119_GAMMA_CTRL_2_REG, 0x0303);
  LCD_WriteReg(SSD2119_GAMMA_CTRL_3_REG, 0x0407);
  LCD_WriteReg(SSD2119_GAMMA_CTRL_4_REG, 0x0301);
  LCD_WriteReg(SSD2119_GAMMA_CTRL_5_REG, 0x0301);
  LCD_WriteReg(SSD2119_GAMMA_CTRL_6_REG, 0x0403);
  LCD_WriteReg(SSD2119_GAMMA_CTRL_7_REG, 0x0707);
  LCD_WriteReg(SSD2119_GAMMA_CTRL_8_REG, 0x0400);
  LCD_WriteReg(SSD2119_GAMMA_CTRL_9_REG, 0x0A00);
  LCD_WriteReg(SSD2119_GAMMA_CTRL_10_REG, 0x1000);
  // Configure Vlcd63 and VCOMl
  LCD_WriteReg(SSD2119_PWR_CTRL_3_REG, 0x000A);
  LCD_WriteReg(SSD2119_PWR_CTRL_4_REG, 0x2E00);
  LCD_WriteReg(SSD2119_GATE_SCAN_START_REG, 0x0001); // Vertical offset
  // Set the display size and ensure that the GRAM window is set to allow
  // access to the full display buffer.
  LCD_WriteReg(SSD2119_V_RAM_POS_REG, (LCD_PIXEL_HEIGHT-1) << 8);
  LCD_WriteReg(SSD2119_H_RAM_START_REG, 0x0000);
  LCD_WriteReg(SSD2119_H_RAM_END_REG, LCD_PIXEL_WIDTH-1);
  //LCD_WriteReg(SSD2119_H_PORCH, 0x001D);
  //LCD_WriteReg(SSD2119_V_PORCH, 0x0003);
  //LCD_WriteReg(SSD2119_FW_START, 0x0000);
  //LCD_WriteReg(SSD2119_FW_END, 0x00EF);
  //LCD_WriteReg(SSD2119_SW_START, 0x0000);
  //LCD_WriteReg(SSD2119_SW_END, 0x00EF);
  LCD_WriteReg(SSD2119_X_RAM_ADDR_REG, 0x00);
  LCD_WriteReg(SSD2119_Y_RAM_ADDR_REG, 0x00);
  // clear the lcd
  LCD_WriteReg(SSD2119_RAM_DATA_REG, 0x0000);

The strange thing is that if I configure the SSD2119_H_RAM_END_REG [0x46] to be between 0 and 255 the display becomes wider but the last 65 pixels (320-255) are overwritten in the first pixels, like in the first two images. If I configure the same register to be greater than 255 (up to 320) the display shows just the last 65 pixels leaving undefined the rest of the display area.

    Hi,

     

    I had quite similar symptom with an SSD1289 and a PSoC, in my case I was trying to write the memmmory of the LCD too fast.

    You can check the kulky64 hex file if using the ST boards (or if using the same pin out).

    You could also check with him if clock configuration in the same.

    Other easy check from you side to discard timing issue, is compile your code with a much slower timing configuration.

     

    Hope that helps

    Hi gihu,

    you or kulky64 have any idea in how I could change the writing speed on the memmemory of the LCD?

    Kulky64 did you changed something in the clock configuration? Because I'm using the predefined values in the project without any modification.

     

    Thanks both
