// For RP2040 processor and 8 or 16 bit parallel displays:
// The parallel interface write cycle period is derived from a division of the CPU clock
// speed so scales with the processor clock. This means that the divider ratio may need
// to be increased when overclocking. I may also need to be adjusted dependant on the
// display controller type (ILI94341, HX8357C etc). If RP2040_PIO_CLK_DIV is not defined
// the library will set default values which may not suit your display.
// The display controller data sheet will specify the minimum write cycle period. The
// controllers often work reliably for shorter periods, however if the period is too short
// the display may not initialise or graphics will become corrupted.
// PIO write cycle frequency = (CPU clock/(4 * RP2040_PIO_CLK_DIV))
//#define RP2040_PIO_CLK_DIV 1 // 32ns write cycle at 125MHz CPU clock
#define RP2040_PIO_CLK_DIV 2 // 64ns write cycle at 125MHz CPU clock
//#define RP2040_PIO_CLK_DIV 3 // 96ns write cycle at 125MHz CPU clock
A new background rendering approach is used for smooth fonts which almost eliminates flicker. tft.print... can now be used with a background rendered for smooth fonts. Font_Demo_1/2/3... examples have been updated.
A new "docs" folder has been created and files moved there. The Tools folder now only contains support tools.
#1757 fixed by using Arduino calls.
A new USER_SETUP_ID parameter can be added to setup files and checked via a new verifySetupID(id); function.
Version raised to v2.4.50
The RP2040 processors can now drive 8 bit parallel and SPI displays using the PIO hardware.
The PIO offloads the processor by providing:
1. PIO managed setWindow sequence
2. PIO managed block and screen fill
Add ILI9225 support
Add viewport feature to Sprites
Rationalise common TFT_eSPI and Sprite functions and variables to use inherited functions width(), height(), rotation(), write(), pivot, cursor, swapBytes.
Images/sprites overlapping both sides of the display were not correctly
cropped.
Option added to allow RGB<>BGR colourr swap option to be used.
ESP8266 Wemos D1 R1 pin numbering difference accomodated.
TTGO T4 setup changed to use HSPI port.
Added SD card storage for smooth fonts with ESP32
ESP32 will use PSRAM (if available and enabled) to hold smooth font
metrics
Improve performance of ESP32 Sprite shared functions
Add basic ST7789 driver option
Latent bug fixes for pin mask
If the VSPI port is in use and pins are not accessible (e.g. TTGO
T-Beam)
then add or uncomment the following line in the setup header file:
//#define USE_HSPI_PORT
Minor performance tweaks for ESP32 to minimise the occurence of the slow
transaction overhead.
setAddrWindow now takes xstart, ystart, width and height as inputs
Multi-sample raw touch x and y for noisy displays
Example update for setAddrWindow change compatibility
Speed up Sprite rotation on an ESP32
Update utf8 serial decoder to handle illegal format strings
Remove need for D0_USED_FOR_xx (issue #271)
Clean up setup files
Correct various comment typos
Fixed bug where wrong wodth was returned for 1bpp Sprite
Improved speed for copying a 1bpp Sprite into another 1bpp Sprite (
affects Sprite pushImage() function only)
Added option to setup for colour inversion
Tested on an ESP32 with ST7789V display
SDA read is very slow on an ESP8266 (to be investigated)
Added new setup #define TFT_SDA_READ
Add new ESP32 and ESP8266 compatible in example/Generic folder to test
capture of TFT screen
// For ST7789 ONLY, define the colour order IF the blue and red are
swapped on your display
//#define TFT_RGB_ORDER TFT_RGB // Colour order Red-Green-Blue
//#define TFT_RGB_ORDER TFT_BGR // Colour order Blue-Green-Red
Remove legacy changes for double buffered SPI
Eliminate unecessary ESP32 SPI read/modify write
Eliminate two stage control bit changes (may impact some diplays with
setup/hold timing and show ESP32 hardware register bug?)
Add single register write for CS and DC command
Make setAddrWindow smarter (as used in previous AVR library)
Improve compatibility with GFX sketches
Re-arrange comments slightly to improve positioning
The library supported 240x240 ST7789 displays only which require an 80
pixel offset in rotation 2 and 3
The library now also supports the 240x320 display which has a different
RGB colour order.
Four new examples have been added to show different methods of rendering
the anta-aliased fonts. A few minor bugs have been corrected associated
with the font rendering. drawNumber and drawFloat handle fixed width
mono fonts with no digit movement.
