| |
| Display various shapes and text using FT800 Embedded Video Engine. |
| |
| Overview |
| ******** |
| |
| This sample displays a hello message and an incrementing counter using FT800 |
| Embedded Video Engine. |
| |
| Requirements |
| ************ |
| |
| To use this sample, the following hardware is required: |
| |
| * A board with SPI support |
| * Display with `FT800 EVE`_ like `VM800C board`_ |
| |
| Wiring |
| ****** |
| |
| You will need to connect the `FT800 EVE`_ SPI interface onto a board that |
| supports Arduino shields. |
| |
| Building and Running |
| ******************** |
| |
| This sample should work on any board that has SPI enabled and has an Arduino |
| shield interface. For example, it can be run on the nRF52840-DK board as |
| described below: |
| |
| .. zephyr-app-commands:: |
| :zephyr-app: samples/drivers/misc/ft800 |
| :board: nrf52840dk/nrf52840 |
| :goals: flash |
| :compact: |
| |
| To build the sample for `VM800C board`_ the shield must be defined as described |
| below: |
| |
| .. zephyr-app-commands:: |
| :zephyr-app: samples/drivers/misc/ft800 |
| :board: nrf52840dk/nrf52840 |
| :shield: ftdi_vm800c |
