From: kikuzo on 28 Dec 2006 23:52 Hi, I'm looking for an application note or sample code to get started using a TFT display with a Solomon's SSD1906 graphic controller. I have a board with a STR912 on it that I'll use to interface with the graphic controller and send commands and data. Thanks in advance !! H.K.

It is a daughter board to plug into the Hitex STR9 starter kit. I will send schematics if you give me a contact email. Running Ramtex gui as it is low cost compared to others, also currently porting microwindows. Display used is a Hitachi TX09. Cheers Spen

From: kikuzo on 9 Jan 2007 23:51 Hi Spen, great to hear from you..!!! I've already connected the STR912 to the graphic chip SSD1906, but I can only read even register/address locations. For odd locations I only read 0xFF. I don't have very clear how to use the WE1, A0 lines. I have not found much literature for the SSD1906 except for the datasheet. I'll appreciate very much your help. Regards, Hideo. n.o.s.p.a.m.kikuzo(a)gmail.com (remove no spam) Spen wrote: > I have just done this - str9 amd SSD1906.

CS - STR9 CS0 BS - GND RD RD/WR - STR9 RD WE0 - STR9 EMI_WRL WE1 - STR9 EMI_WRH WAIT - NC RESET - STR9 RESET_OUT M/R - STR9 A17 CLKI - 25MHz STR9 ETHCLK OUT I am using the 16bit multiplexed bus, so remember on the str9 the address are shifted. Because of this we need to connect SSD A0 to GND. The STR9 A0 to the SSD A1 and so on. 2 M74HC573 are used as the address latches. Hope this helps Spen |
