TM4C123GH6PM + ST7789H2 (LCD+TOUCHSCREEN)

Iliescu Mihai

Other Parts Discussed in Thread: TM4C123GH6PM

Hello,

I am trying to interface a TM4C123GH6PM with a LCD (that also have a touchscreen), its a chinese round tft. Its driver is ST7789H2(https://cdn-reichelt.de/documents/datenblatt/A300/ST7789.pdf

Before today i wasn t able to see anything on the screen, what i did today it was modifying the next lines:

ROM_SysCtlClockSet(SYSCTL_SYSDIV_4 | SYSCTL_USE_PLL | SYSCTL_XTAL_16MHZ | SYSCTL_OSC_MAIN); here i change the SYSCTL_SYSDIV_2_5 to SYSCTL_SYSDIV_4.

Eliminate the while(SSIBusy(SSI3_BASE)){}; command from sending SPI commands/parameter functions.

And change the transmission frequency from 12Mhz to 1Mhz.

Thank you very much!

Hello Iliescu,

Not sure what the question is?

Hi Amit,

Raise the tally to two, "unsure as to poster's intent." (no question has been raised)

The unique, circular display appears either: unsuccessfully initialized and/or unsuccessful in the processing or receiving of poster's display functions.

Several functions reveal w/in poster's code. We're not told which - if any - were "in process" when the camera's trigger was pressed. Early functions sought to display Blue Pixels - the disordered screen shows that intent significantly failed.

Initialization and timing between commands (especially) & screen data writes are critical. Of course we could invest time/energy in reading poster's spec - but would it not be so much more convenient if poster listed those key/critical requirements?

Hello Amit,

My question is how can i correctly initialize the display. I know its a little bit too general, but honestly i don't know what the problem is.

I want to be able to set some pixels and from there i can handle.

That happened to the screen after the function fillRoundRect(10,10,200,200); run. But if i modify those coordinates the display doesn t show anything.

Iliescu Mihai said:

Wouldn't that be detailed w/in the Display Controller's specification - and sometimes - by the display vendor's (helpful) documentation?

Usually it is important that you:

enter the correct initialization instruction & data
strobe or otherwise "latch in" the above - insuring that "Set-up, hold, & all other display timings are met
follow the correct (or logical) sequencing of initialization instructions
provide the specified time delays between each initialization instruction & data
insure that your signal edges are "square & clean" & that signal levels are adequate - when measured ("not" @ the MCU) but @ the display. "Assuming" rather than (real) test/verify invites endless trouble. Waveforms you supplied are fine - but their "acquiring" location is unspecified! (@ Display NOT MCU!)

When ALL of the above conditions have been met you should monitor your SPI output to insure that what you "hope to send" is (actually) what you (really) send! Initialization is touchy - great attention to detail is required. I don't believe your scope caps show any byte sequences - you must insure that multi-byte sequences are correctly received @ the display.

*** You may have to manually drive SPI-CS to mate the MCU to the Display Controller ***

As always - limiting your efforts to (just) one device proves high risk. (unacceptable, experience teaches) Does this "display disorder" continue on your (other) displays?

And agreed that if you can display a single color @ "Left, top" and then, "Right, bottom" you are well on your way. A "CLS" (clear screen) always proves helpful.

Thank you for your help.

Yes, it is described by the controller datasheet, but it seems that i cant figured it out what the problem is...
I did everything you write in there, but still doesn t work... And this is my problem, i dont know why. And yes, i test on 2 displays, because as you said before its not safe to test on just a single display that can be broken. Anyway, its not the case. I acquiring the waveform on the display to mcu path. (i got some test points)

And my scope image show byte sequences... And the correct one. ( i checked that already).

I already manually drive CS...

0 Iliescu Mihai over 8 years ago

Prodigy 175 points

I think i found a error in my way of sending commands. The datasheet its a little bit confusing... I was deciding if a 8 bit sequence is a command or a data by driving up or down the A0 bit (DCX in the datasheet). But it seems that this is only available in the 4 line SPI, not 3 line (this is how my lcd is configured by the manufacturer). Now i have to sent 9 bit, where the first bit(MSB) is the DCX bit, selecting if the sequence is a line or command.

I just simply need to modify ROM_SSIConfigSetExpClk(SSI3_BASE, SysCtlClockGet(), SSI_FRF_MOTO_MODE_0, SSI_MODE_MASTER, 1000000, 8); ?
Instead of 8 bit, selecting a 9bit? But how would i send, lets say 0x11 in 9 bit format with DCX being 0 and with DCX being 1?

Thank you!

I'm no expert w/this vendor's MCUs as my firm has moved to 180MHz, DACs, MIPPI-DSI Display Control w/Graphic Accelerator & support for the (entire) Cortex M spectrum. (M0, M0+, M3, M4 & M7).

Using Forum's Search should reveal how to produce 16 bit SPI transfers - but 9 bit ones - beyond my pay grade. (@ this vendor)

If you CAN generate proper 8 bit SPI would it not make sense to simply dedicate a GPIO to your "A0" bit - and employ the 4 line SPI mode as you mention? The selection/toggle of "A0" may have to occur w/in the SPI_CS signal - check that you're complying w/that...

0 Iliescu Mihai over 8 years ago in reply to cb1_mobile

Prodigy 175 points

I think you didn t understand what i think it is my problem.

My tft driver is already set (internally) to be a 3-line SPI with DC/X bit (A0) sent through a 9-bit interface, by adding another bit(DCX) to the Transmission Byte. (in front of, actually)

What are you telling me about toggleing the A0 GPIO, its probably right and i didn t do this, but anyway it can t help me now.

Thank you for all your replies!

0 Amit Ashara over 8 years ago in reply to Iliescu Mihai

Hello Ilescu,

The SPI Peripheral can be configured to send 9-bit instead of 8-bit. Look ta the last parameter in the SSI Configuration function.

Hello Amit, I know, but how the sent command will look like?

I mean, if i want to send 0x11, and the DC/X is lets say 1, how the command will look like? But if DC/X is 0?

Thank you!

0 Amit Ashara over 8 years ago in reply to Iliescu Mihai

TI__Guru**** 244380 points

Hello Iliescu

When sending 0x11 with DC/X set 1 you would need to write 0x111 to the SSI Data register

When sending 0x11 with DC/X set 0 you would need to write 0x011 to the SSI Data register

Amit

Hello,

Thank you!

Another question if i may:

void WriteParameter(unsigned char data)
{
LCD_CS_LOW(); //select
while(SSIBusy(SSI3_BASE)){};
SSIDataPut(SSI3_BASE, data);
LCD_CS_HIGH(); //unselect
}

How can i concatenate 1 bit to the data parameter? So if i want to sent, for exemple 0x11, this function to automatically add 1 in front of the 8 bits?

THank you very much!

0 Amit Ashara over 8 years ago in reply to Iliescu Mihai

TI__Guru**** 244380 points

Hello Ilescu.

That can be done by bitwise OR of the data and 0x100 if write parameter function is for DC/X=1

Thanks from two of us Amit - always helping/assisting...

May I suggest that you employ two "bitwise-functions" - one for commands and the other for (normal) data writes. That bitwise (set/clear) function would be the only difference between your Command & Data code blocks.

Thank Amit - and yourself for having the desire & tenacity to first experiment - gain understanding - and only then post.

The "screen icon" (9 from left-most) enables you to post a photo.

Would you be so good as to post the screen vendor's name/link & your display's model number? (you're the 2nd seeking "round TFT" w/in past month...)

Indeed - and in its "disordered state" it resembles NYC "over the air" TV w/a young cb1 (cradling) "rabbit-ears" in famed, "Fox Viewing Position." (credit Bundy clan)

Hundreds of tall buildings blocked/degraded signals for all but the highest antennas in NYC - pre cable... (9 bit SPI [even 8 bit SPI] had (yet) to arrive - this scene!)

We are in your debt - thank you - very much appreciated.

Too often here posters are aided - then flee - never to return. Good luck w/your continuing project - as one in the display biz such round format displays are a rarity...

That's what i coded today, i have some functions, i will adapt&rewrite anothers as well. This is my graduation thesis... It also has touchscreen, bluetooth, accelerometer and power management - charging IC, etc(for Bachelor's Degree).

And you helped me, i owe you anyway. (about being in debt..)

Never having worked w/circular screen it appears that you're going to have to track your "pixel row" and trend toward the display's inner columns as you move toward (either) vertical edge (i.e. top/bottom) of this screen.
