This README will help you -understand the configuration data and give you some guidance for -adding support for other panels if you wish. - - -lcd-panels.h ------------- - -There is no way, at present, to detect which panel is attached to the -system at runtime. Thus the kernel configuration is static. The file -arch/arm/mach-ld7a40x/lcd-panels.h (or similar) defines all of the -panel specific parameters. - -It should be possible for this data to be shared among several device -families. The current layout may be insufficiently general, but it is -amenable to improvement. - - -PIXEL_CLOCK ------------ - -The panel data sheets will give a range of acceptable pixel clocks. -The fundamental LCDCLK input frequency is divided down by a PCD -constant in field '.tim2'. It may happen that it is impossible to set -the pixel clock within this range. A clock which is too slow will -tend to flicker. For the highest quality image, set the clock as high -as possible. - - -MARGINS -------- - -These values may be difficult to glean from the panel data sheet. In -the case of the Sharp panels, the upper margin is explicitly called -out as a specific number of lines from the top of the frame. The -other values may not matter as much as the panels tend to -automatically center the image. - - -Sync Sense ----------- - -The sense of the hsync and vsync pulses may be called out in the data -sheet. On one panel, the sense of these pulses determine the height -of the visible region on the panel. Most of the Sharp panels use -negative sense sync pulses set by the TIM2_IHS and TIM2_IVS bits in -'.tim2'. - - -Pel Layout ----------- - -The Sharp color TFT panels are all configured for 16 bit direct color -modes. The amba-lcd driver sets the pel mode to 565 for 5 bits of -each red and blue and 6 bits of green. |
