µC/GUI LCD15E05 Driver

Supported controllers

This driver has been tested with the following LCD controllers:

  • Epson S1D15E05

It should be assumed that it will also work with any controller of similar organization.

Bits per pixel

The supported color depth is 2 bpp.

Interfaces

Both 8-bit parallel (simple bus) interfaces and serial (SPI) interfaces are supported.

Display data RAM organization



The picture above shows the relation between the display memory and the SEG and COM lines of the LCD.

Additional RAM requirements of the driver

This LCD driver may be used with or without a display data cache, containing a complete copy of the contents of the LCD data RAM. If a cache is not used, there are no additional RAM requirements.

It is recommended to use this driver with a data cache for faster LCD-access. The amount of memory used by the cache may be calculated as follows:
Size of RAM (in bytes) = (LCD_YSIZE + 7) / 8 * LCD_XSIZE

Additional driver functions

None.

Hardware configuration

This driver accesses the hardware with a simple bus interface. The following table lists the macros which must be defined for hardware access::

Macro Description
LCD_INIT_CONTROLLER Initialization sequence for the LCD controller.
LCD_READ_A0 Reads a byte from display controller with A-line low.
LCD_READ_A1 Reads a byte from display controller with A-line high.
LCD_WRITE_A0 Writes a byte to display controller with A-line low.
LCD_WRITE_A1 Writes a byte to display controller with A-line high.

Additional configuration switches

The following table shows optional configuration switches available for this driver:
Macro Description
LCD_CACHE Activate display cache. When set to 0, no data cache is used. Using the driver without cache slows down the speed of the driver.

Special requirements for certain LCD controllers

None.
