LCD Header files
================
include/nuttx/lcd/lcd.h
Structures and APIs needed to work with LCD drivers are provided in
this header file. This header file also depends on some of the same
definitions used for the frame buffer driver as provided in
include/nuttx/video/fb.h.
struct lcd_dev_s
Each LCD device driver must implement an instance of struct lcd_dev_s.
That structure defines a call table with the following methods:
- Get information about the LCD video controller configuration and the
configuration of each LCD color plane.
int (*getvideoinfo)(FAR struct lcd_dev_s *dev,
FAR struct fb_videoinfo_s *vinfo);
int (*getplaneinfo)(FAR struct lcd_dev_s *dev, unsigned int planeno,
FAR struct lcd_planeinfo_s *pinfo);
- The following are provided only if the video hardware supports RGB
color mapping:
int (*getcmap)(FAR struct lcd_dev_s *dev,
FAR struct fb_cmap_s *cmap);
int (*putcmap)(FAR struct lcd_dev_s *dev,
FAR const struct fb_cmap_s *cmap);
- The following are provided only if the video hardware supports a
hardware cursor:
int (*getcursor)(FAR struct lcd_dev_s *dev,
FAR struct fb_cursorattrib_s *attrib);
int (*setcursor)(FAR struct lcd_dev_s *dev,
FAR struct fb_setcursor_s *settings);
- Get the LCD panel power status (0: full off - CONFIG_LCD_MAXPOWER:
full on). On backlit LCDs, this setting may correspond to the
backlight setting.
int (*getpower)(struct lcd_dev_s *dev);
- Enable/disable LCD panel power (0: full off - CONFIG_LCD_MAXPOWER:
full on). On backlit LCDs, this setting may correspond to the
backlight setting.
int (*setpower)(struct lcd_dev_s *dev, int power);
- Get the current contrast setting (0-CONFIG_LCD_MAXCONTRAST) */
int (*getcontrast)(struct lcd_dev_s *dev);
- Set LCD panel contrast (0-CONFIG_LCD_MAXCONTRAST)
int (*setcontrast)(struct lcd_dev_s *dev, unsigned int contrast);
Binding LCD Drivers
===================
LCD drivers are not normally directly accessed by user code, but are
usually bound to another, higher level device driver. In general, the
binding sequence is:
1. Get an instance of struct lcd_dev_s from the hardware-specific LCD
device driver, and
2. Provide that instance to the initialization method of the higher
level device driver.

Re-usable LCD drivers reside in the drivers/lcd directory:
LCDs:
----
mio283qt2.c. This is a driver for the MI0283QT-2 LCD from Multi-Inno
Technology Co., Ltd. This LCD is based on the Himax HX8347-D LCD
controller.
mio283qt9a.c. This is a driver for the MI0283QT-9A LCD from Multi-Inno
Technology Co., Ltd. This LCD is based on the Ilitek ILI9341 LCD
controller.
ssd12989.c. Generic LCD driver for LCDs based on the Solomon Systech
SSD1289 LCD controller. Think of this as a template for an LCD driver
that you will probably have to customize for any particular LCD
hardware. (See also boards/arm/stm32/hymini-stm32v/src/ssd1289.c below).

with the LPCXpresso and Embedded Artists base board.
memlcd.c. Sharp Memory LCD Suite, LS013B7DH01, LS013B7DH03, etc.
There are some more different models, they are basically controlled
by similar logics, thus this driver can be extended.

Marten Svanfeldt.

with the Atmel SAM4l Xplained Pro board. This driver also supports
Densitron Technologies DD-12864WO-4A which is based on SSD1309 LCD
controller. Example usage:
boards/arm/stm32/stm32f4discovery

==================
There are additional LCD drivers in the boards/<arch>/<chip>/<board>/src
directory that support additional LCDs. LCD drivers in the configuration
directory if they support some differ LCD interface (such as a parallel
interface) that makes then less re-usable:
