esp_lcd driver for ILI9488 displays

readme

# esp_lcd driver for ILI9488 displays This component provides an implementation of the ILI9488 LCD controller using the esp_lcd component APIs. | LCD controller | Communication interface | Component name | Link to datasheet | | :------------: | :---------------------: | :------------: | :---------------: | | ILI9488 | SPI or Intel 8080 | esp_lcd_ili9488 | [Specification](https://focuslcds.com/content/ILI9488.pdf) | ## Note on supported communication interfaces When using the SPI interface it is required to use 18-bit color depth mode as below: ``` const esp_lcd_panel_dev_config_t lcd_config = { ... .bits_per_pixel = 18, ... }; ``` When using the Intel 8080 (Parallel) interface the 16-bit color depth mode should be used. ## Display Reset pin If the display requires the usage of a RESET pin during the initialization process be sure to configure it as below: ``` const esp_lcd_panel_dev_config_t lcd_config = { .reset_gpio_num = CONFIG_TFT_RESET_PIN, .... ``` If the display does not require this pin set this value to GPIO_NUM_NC (-1). ## Using this component in your project This package can be added to your project in two ways: 1. Using [Espressif's component service](https://components.espressif.com/) as: ``` dependencies: atanisoft/esp_lcd_ili9488: "~1.0.0" ``` 2. Using the git repository directly: ``` dependencies: esp_lcd_ili9488: git: https://github.com/atanisoft/esp_lcd_ili9488.git ``` For more information on the usage of the `idf_component.yml` file please refer to [Espressif's documentation](https://docs.espressif.com/projects/esp-idf/en/latest/esp32/api-guides/tools/idf-component-manager.html). ## Supported platforms At this time testing is limited to ESP32 and ESP32-S3, other ESP32 variants should work but are not tested. ## Required sdkconfig entries This driver converts the color data from 16-bit to 18-bit as part of the `draw_bitmap` callback. Therefore it is required to set `CONFIG_LV_COLOR_DEPTH_16=y` in your sdkconfig. In the future other color depths may be supported.

changelog

# Change log for esp_lcd_ili9488 ## v1.0.8 - Adds support for portrait / landscape orientation. Thanks to a contribution from @jacobvc it is possible to configure the display as portrait (default) or landscape. ## v1.0.5 - Add 16-bit support for parallel IO interface support Parallel IO mode (Intel 8080 interface) should use 16-bit color mode instead of being forced into 18-bit color mode that is required for use when the SPI interface is used. ## v1.0.4 - License tagging fixes This release only updates the SPDX license tagging of source files. ## v1.0.3 - Bug Fixes and LVGL example update This release removes (and desupports) a dependency on 32-bit color depth when using LVGL, the color conversion code has only ever supported 16-bit color data but was incorrectly casting the source color data to `uint32_t` instead of `uint16_t`. As a result of the above bug fix the `esp_lcd_panel_dev_config_t` field `bits_per_pixel` will be ignored by `esp_lcd_new_panel_ili9488` and the ILI9488 will always use the 18-bit color mode. The LVGL example has been updated as below: * Remove unused `lvgl_port_update_callback` since the example does not include touch support or any screen rotation API calls. * Add option for enabling / disabling double buffering with LVGL, default is to use a single buffer. * Added missing Kconfig.projbuild entry for `TFT_RESET_PIN`, added new entry `DISPLAY_COLOR_MODE` which can be used to toggle between BGR and RGB color mode on the ILI9488 display. * Enhanced example to switch from only using `lv_spinner_create` to instead use `lv_meter_create` and `lv_anim_t` to display an animated gauge. * Reduced default backlight brightness to 75%. * Switched from using `esp_register_freertos_tick_hook` to `esp_timer_create` for the tick update handler. * Add code to set the background color of the display to black. ## v1.0.2 - Bug Fix Release This release contains a bug fix related to a compilation failure with ESP-IDF v5.0.1 replacing `esp_lcd_color_space_t` with `lcd_color_rgb_endian_t` but retaining the original name in `esp_lcd_panel_dev_config_t` for the value. At this time the library supports both ESP-IDF v4.4.x and v5.x but the new values in `lcd_color_rgb_endian_t` are not being used as they are compatible with the existing values defined in `esp_lcd_color_space_t`, once ESP-IDF v5.1.x has become stable and legacy enums are removed this library will be updated accordingly. Fixed: https://github.com/atanisoft/esp_lcd_ili9488/issues/1 ## v1.0.1 - No changes ## v1.0.0 - Initial release This release is the first revision of this component and includes basic support for ILI9488 displays including the 18-bit color depth conversion which is required for SPI interface displays.

# LVGL Example using ILI9488 display This is a very basic example using LVGL and an ILI9488 SPI display. ## Default pin assignments For the ESP32 pins are as follows: | pin | usage | | --- | ----- | | SPI MISO | 2 | | SPI MOSI | 15 | | SPI CLK | 14 | | TFT CS | 16 | | TFT Reset | (not configured) | | TFT DC | 17 | | TFT Backlight | 18 | On the ESP32 only the TFT pins can be reconfiguring by using `idf.py menuconfig`. For the ESP32-S3 pins are as follows: | pin | usage | | --- | ----- | | SPI MISO | 13 | | SPI MOSI | 10 | | SPI CLK | 11 | | TFT CS | 3 | | TFT Reset | 46 | | TFT DC | 9 | | TFT Backlight | 12 | On the ESP32-S3 all pins can be reconfigured by using `idf.py menuconfig`.

| Supported Targets | ESP32 | ESP32-S2 | ESP32-S3 | | ----------------- | ----- | -------- | -------- | # LVGL porting example LVGL is an open-source graphics library for creating modern GUIs. It has plenty of built-in graphical elements with low memory footprint, which is friendly for embedded GUI applications. This example can be taken as a skeleton of porting the LVGL library onto the `esp_lcd` driver layer. **Note** that, this example only focuses on the display interface, regardless of the input device driver. The whole porting code is located in [this main file](main/lvgl_example_main.c), and the UI demo code is located in [another single file](main/lvgl_demo_ui.c). The UI will display two images (one Espressif logo and another Espressif text), which have been converted into C arrays by the [online converting tool](https://lvgl.io/tools/imageconverter), and will be compiled directly into application binary. This example is constructed by [IDF component manager](https://docs.espressif.com/projects/esp-idf/en/latest/esp32s3/api-guides/tools/idf-component-manager.html), all the external dependency will be handled by the CMake build system automatically. In this case, it will help download the lvgl from [lvgl](https://components.espressif.com/component/lvgl/lvgl) and esp_lcd_ili9488 from [esp_lcd_ili9488](https://components.espressif.com/components/atanisoft/esp_lcd_ili9488), with the version specified in the [manifest file](main/idf_component.yml). This example uses the [esp_timer](https://docs.espressif.com/projects/esp-idf/en/latest/esp32/api-reference/system/esp_timer.html) to generate the ticks needed by LVGL. For more porting guides, please refer to [LVGL porting doc](https://docs.lvgl.io/master/porting/index.html). ## How to use the example ### Hardware Required * An ESP development board * An Intel 8080 interfaced (so called MCU interface or parallel interface) LCD * An USB cable for power supply and programming ### Hardware Connection The connection between ESP Board and the LCD is as follows: ``` ESP3233 Board LCD Screen ┌─────────────┐ ┌────────────────┐ │ │ │ │ │ 3V3 ├─────────────►│ VCC │ │ │ │ │ │ GND ├──────────────┤ GND │ │ │ │ │ │ DATA[0..7] │◄────────────►│ DATA[0..7] │ │ │ │ │ │ IO12 ├─────────────►│ PCLK │ │ │ │ │ │ IO10 ├─────────────►│ CS │ │ │ │ │ │ IO14 ├─────────────►│ D/C │ │ │ │ │ │ IO9 ├─────────────►│ RST │ │ │ │ │ │ IO46 ├─────────────►│ BCKL │ │ │ │ │ └─────────────┘ └────────────────┘ ``` The GPIO number used by this example can be changed in [lvgl_example_main.c](main/lvgl_example_main.c). Especially, please pay attention to the level used to turn on the LCD backlight, some LCD module needs a low level to turn it on, while others take a high level. You can change the backlight level macro `EXAMPLE_LCD_BK_LIGHT_ON_LEVEL` in [lvgl_example_main.c](main/lvgl_example_main.c). ### Build and Flash Run `idf.py -p PORT build flash monitor` to build, flash and monitor the project. A fancy animation will show up on the LCD as expected. The first time you run `idf.py` for the example will cost extra time as the build system needs to address the component dependencies and downloads the missing components from registry into `managed_components` folder. (To exit the serial monitor, type ``Ctrl-]``.) See the [Getting Started Guide](https://docs.espressif.com/projects/esp-idf/en/latest/get-started/index.html) for full steps to configure and use ESP-IDF to build projects. ### Example Output ```bash I (321) cpu_start: Starting scheduler on PRO CPU.
