Discription =========== This is a demo project for testing the TDISP/HD44780 on a STM32F4-Discovery board. The first line of the display will show: ChibiOS/GFX The second line wil show: TDISP/HD44780 with a custom charactor in front. If the connected display is a 4 line display: The third line will stay empty The forth line will show the cursor modes. Display type ============ The demo is written for a 4 lines display. If have a display with less lines, change the TDISP_COLUMNS setting gfxconf.h in the project directory to the count of your display. The software will react upon this setting. Hardware connection =================== The datalines D4 to D7 of the HD44780 compatible display must be connected to the PE0 to PE3 output pins of the Discovery board. The RS-line of the display must be connected to PD0 of the Discovery board and the CS-line of the display must be connected to PD1 of the Discovery board. The R/W-line of the display must be connected to ground, because reading from the display is not used. The project directory contains a custom STM32F4 Discovery board file. If you want to change the connection to the Discovery board, change the custom board file accordingly. Building ======== You have to check the provided Makefile to meet your installation of the ARM-GCC Toolchain.
