stm32f4 tft lcd example factory

You can refer to the examples under STM32CubeF4 package to see their structure and get inspired from them to configure your files: STM32Cube_FW_F4_V1.21.0\Projects\STM32F429I-Discovery\Applications\STemWin

One of my favorite features of the STM32F429 discovery board is the TFT-LCD display. After setting up the programming IDE I started looking at the code examples given by ST. One code example caught my eye: The "LTDC_Display_2Layers" project.

I imported the project as explained in my STM32F4 Tutorial and modified the code so that instead of the two ST logos moving around on the screen, a jumping monoclecat is displayed. When you press the "USER" button, the cat jumps higher.

I have tried to compile the example file GxTFT_FSMC_BlackSTM32F407V.ino. The necessary assisting files should be in place including STM32GENERIC in the hardware folder. After having worked for quite some time Arduino IDE stops with an error message. I list the last page of the verbose output:

STM32F429 has also LTDC driver for LCD like that, but this driver we will use later. For now we will use SPI for driving in serial mode and some other pins for controlling.

Remember: This library can also be used, if you are not using STM32F429 Discovery. It can be used in previous STM32F4 Discovery board. All pins can be changed in defines.h file which is included in project.

A high-quality 4.3" TFT true-color display with a capacitive touch panel is the most distinctive feature of the mikromedia 4. The display has a resolution of 480 by 272 pixels, and it can display up to 16.7M of colors. The display module is controlled by the SSD1963 graphics driver IC from Solomon Systech. This is a powerful graphics coprocessor, equipped with 1215KB of frame buffer memory. It also includes some advanced features such as the hardware accelerated display rotation, display mirroring, hardware windowing, dynamic backlight control, programmable color and brightness control, and more.
