Introduction[edit | edit source]
This application note describes the interfacing of Ampire AM-800480STMQW-TA1 display to BoraEVB. This project is based on BELK 2.2.0.
Physical interfacing[edit | edit source]
To interface the display a small adapter board is needed. It interfaces J22 connector on BoraEVB side and provides a 20-pin connector to directly attach display cable. It is also equipped with a linear regulator generating 2.5V. This voltage is used as power supply for the VDDIO_BANK13 rail. This voltage is required to implement LVDS differential pairs that drive display.
At this URL TBD schematics are available for download.

LCD is driven by a controller implemented in PL that fetches pixel data from frame buffer and periodically refreshes physical screen. LCD controller provides configuration registers that are mapped in the following address range: TBD
To implement frame buffer, a portion of main SDRAM is used. This area is allocated at runtime by linux frame buffer driver.
At the following URL the Vivado design is available for download: TBD.
Enabling frame buffer driver in linux kernel[edit | edit source]
To enable frame buffer driver TBD
Once the kernel has completed boot, frame buffer can be accessed from user space applications via /dev/fb0 device file (for more details please refer to https://www.kernel.org/doc/Documentation/fb/framebuffer.txt).
The following image shows Qt 4.??? demo application running on top of it.
