TEV-LB2

The TEV-LB2 carries a 176x220 AMPIRE AM176220 TFT panel. This panel is based on a HIMAX HX8309 controller. There is also a control line for panel's backlight. The image displayed on the panel is not visible unless the backlight is turned on.

Required Tibbo BASIC/C Initialization Code

This section assumes that you are familiar with Tibbo BASIC/C and Tibbo IDE (TIDE).

For correct panel operation, click Project-> Settings, and select the EM1000 or EM1000G platform. Additionally, click Customize to open a Customize Project dialog. In the dialog, double-click the Display Panel Type line and choose Himax HX8309 (Ampire AM176220).

The following initialization code should also be added to your project:

Tibbo BASIC

							lcd.iomapping="44,43,42,41,40,4" 'RST,DC,WR,RD,CS,data_bus
							   
							io.num=PL_IO_NUM_44
							io.enabled=YES
							   
							io.num=PL_IO_NUM_43
							io.enabled=YES
							 
							io.num=PL_IO_NUM_42
							io.enabled=YES
							 
							io.num=PL_IO_NUM_41
							io.enabled=YES
							 
							io.num=PL_IO_NUM_40
							io.enabled=YES
							 
							lcd.width=176
							lcd.height=220
							lcd.rotated=NO
							lcd.inverted=NO
							lcd.enabled=YES
						

Use the following code to turn on the backlight:

Tibbo BASIC

							io.num=PL_IO_NUM_47
							io.enabled=YES
							io.state=LOW
