The S6D02A1 is a display controller used to drive color displays over SPI using 12, 16 or 18 bbp. These displays require a backlight. These displays are commonly found with a resolution of 128x160.

The Meadow.Foundation S6D02A1 driver currently only supports 16bpp RGB565.

Code Example

MicroGraphics graphics;

public override Task Initialize()
{
Resolver.Log.Info("Initializing ...");

var spiBus = Device.CreateSpiBus();

Resolver.Log.Info("Create display driver instance");

var display = new S6D02A1
(
spiBus: spiBus,
chipSelectPin: Device.Pins.D02,
dcPin: Device.Pins.D01,
resetPin: Device.Pins.D00,
width: 128, height: 160
);

graphics = new MicroGraphics(display)
{
IgnoreOutOfBoundsPixels = true,
CurrentFont = new Font8x8()
};

return base.Initialize();
}

public override Task Run()
{
graphics.Clear();

graphics.DrawTriangle(10, 10, 50, 50, 10, 50, Color.Red);
graphics.DrawRectangle(20, 15, 40, 20, Color.Yellow, false);
graphics.DrawCircle(50, 50, 40, Color.Blue, false);
graphics.DrawText(5, 5, "Meadow F7");

graphics.Show();

return base.Run();
}
