Riverdi STM32 Evaluation Board INTRODUCTION Riverdi STM32 Evaluation Board is a tool designed to help get you started on working with Riverdi products. It’s not only EVE4 modules for displays from 3.5” through 10.1” but also High Brightness, IPS displays with RGB, LVDS, DSI interfaces (the two last types must have additional serializer) in combination with touch panels by Riverdi.
This chapter describes the procedures of using the application EVE Screen Editor (ESE) to create your own GUI application. For quick start, Riverdi has prepared official, ready-to-use demonstration software which is preloaded in the STM32 Flash memory for easy demonstration of the Riverdi EVE4 series displays. Please refer to Chapter 6 for more details.
