SYS/BIOS graphics libraries for DM3730/AM3703

Other Parts Discussed in Thread: AM3703, DM3730

I am embarking on a new SYS/BIOS project, based on the DM3730/AM3703.  My development platform is a Logic PD DM3730 Torpedo Development Kit. I contacted them about development libraries, and they pointed me here.

For my project, I need to display graphical (bitmap) data on the LCD screen.  I am hoping there exist someplace SYS/BIOS libraries which initialize the display and make a framebuffer available for me to draw into.

 

My searches so far for a SYS/BIOS SDK for this chip have come up empty. Does anyone know of any available libraries? Is the integrated LCD controller in the DM3730 similar to the LCD in other processors? Maybe I can borrow code from a different SDK, if the display controller is the same?

Thank you!

Noel

    Hi Noel,

    You may be out of luck  -- for the most part, the SYS/BIOS development group does not really provide device specific drivers and libraries, and is not working with the DM3730 LCDC in particular.  I see that you made a similar post in the device forum.  I'll post a response there in hopes that one of the device experts might have further advice for you.

    If you end up implementing your own library and have any questions or issues with integrating that with SYS/BIOS, please go ahead and post to this forum.

    Thanks.  It looks now like we will have to start by porting the LCD driver from Linux, then porting the StarterWare graphics library, followed by the SGX OpenGL driver.

    I am sure I'll be back with more questions over the course of the project.
