LCD-TFT controller (LTDC)
16.6
LTDC programming procedure
•
Enable the LTDC clock in the RCC register
•
Configure the required Pixel clock following the panel datasheet
•
Configure the Synchronous timings: VSYNC, HSYNC, Vertical and Horizontal back
porch, active data area and the front porch timings following the panel datasheet as
described in the
•
Configure the synchronous signals and clock polarity in the LTDC_GCR register
•
If needed, configure the background color in the LTDC_BCCR register
•
Configure the needed interrupts in the LTDC_IER and LTDC_LIPCR register
•
Configure the Layer1/2 parameters by programming:
–
–
–
–
–
–
–
•
Enable Layer1/2 and if needed the CLUT in the LTDC_LxCR register
•
If needed, dithering and color keying can be enabled respectively in the LTDC_GCR
and LTDC_LxCKCR registers. It can be also enabled on the fly.
•
Reload the shadow registers to active register through the LTDC_SRCR register.
•
Enable the LCD-TFT controller in the LTDC_GCR register.
•
All layer parameters can be modified on the fly except the CLUT. The new configuration
has to be either reloaded immediately or during vertical blanking period by configuring
the LTDC_SRCR register.
Note:
All layer's registers are shadowed. Once a register is written, it should not be modified again
before the reload has been done. Thus, a new write to the same register will override the
previous configuration if not yet reloaded.

Section 16.4.1: LTDC Global configuration parameters
The Layer window horizontal and vertical position in the LTDC_LxWHPCR and
LTDC_WVPCR registers. The layer window must be in the active data area.
The pixel input format in the LTDC_LxPFCR register
The color frame buffer start address in the LTDC_LxCFBAR register
The line length and pitch of the color frame buffer in the LTDC_LxCFBLR register
The number of lines of the color frame buffer in the LTDC_LxCFBLNR register
if needed, load the CLUT with the RGB values and its address in the
LTDC_LxCLUTWR register
If needed, configure the default color and the blending factors respectively in the
LTDC_LxDCCR and LTDC_LxBFCR registers
