Display Interface
The SAM3N-EK carries a TFT Transmissive LCD module with touch panel, TM020GDZ18. Its integrated
driver IC is ILI9225B. The LCD display area is 2.0 inches diagonally measured, with a native resolution
of 176x220 pixels.
The LCD module gets reset from GPIO PA29. The LCD chip select signal is connected to NPCS2. The
SAM3N communicates with the LCD through the SPI bus.

Backlight Control
The LCD backlight is made of four integrated white chip-LEDs arranged in parallel. These are driven by
an AAT3193 charge pump, MN5. The AAT3193 is controlled by the SAM3N through a single PIO line
interface (PC13); the 0 Ohm resistor R17 is mounted in series on this line, which permits to use it for
other custom purposes. In that case, the pull-up resistor R64 maintains the charge pump permanently
enabled by default.
On the anode drive line, a 0 Ohm resistor R21 is implemented in series for an optional current limitation.
