Work with OMAP-L138 LCDK

Hi Alexander,

Thanks for your post.

Normally, OMAPL138 LCD controller supports raster type and LIDD (LCD interface display driver) type to interface to LCD panels. In LIDD mode, it supports character display & micro interface graphics display types and in raster mode, it supports STN & TFT display devices.

Usually, VPIF supports raw data capturing, so, you shall connect a camera AFE device with progressive/interlaced CCD raw capture modes whose ouput signal format shall be in the raw format which is of basically, an RGB component. Data widths shall be from 8bits/pixel, 10bits/pixel and 12 bits/pixel mode.

To get OMAPl138 LCDK starterware example programs, you shall download & install the starterware package and you will find the example projects for camera and display in the below installation path:
