How to initiate LCD on SITARA AM3517 EVM Linux

Other Parts Discussed in Thread: AM3517

Hi,

I am working on TI SITARA AM3517 EVM with Linux ported on it.

I want to initiate LCD (Part No: LQ043TIDG01) and display some text or image on it.

My question is, can any one help me in getting a sample user level application ( ' c '  program ) which can run on my Sitara AM3517 platform? or please show me the link where I can find the relavent information.

I am using code sourcery command line tool chain ( cross compilation tools ) for my developement.

 

Thanks

  • Hi Gautam,

    I am quite not sure from where you got Linux PSP software, but I believe Display driver is already been supported in your Linux Port. If no, then you can download it from http://focus.ti.com/docs/toolsw/folders/print/linuxsdk-am35x.html.

    From driver perspective, its standard Fbdev and V4L2 driver, so any standard Linux rendering application (directFB, X, etc...) should work. Google will give you tons of pages for this.

    If you are looking for very thin and simple application for raw image format, then you can use sample application available with release package, they mostly draw RGB color bar pattern on display output.

     

    Thanks,
