This is the quick start guide for the ILI9341 Display Controller Component Driver, with step-by-step instructions on how to configure and use the component driver for specific use cases.
The section described below can be compiled into e.g. the main application loop or any other function that will need to interface non-volatile memory.
This section will present one use cases of the ILI9341 component driver. It will first turn on the backlight and then fill the screen with a solid color.
The ILI9341 component driver contains a basic backlight control as well as functions to draw pixels of various colors within a given pixel boundary. This use case will turn on the backlight and fill the entire display with a single color.
The conf_ili9341.h configuration file must be present in your application, and should be set to use the correct SPI interface of your chosen microcontroller.
Your application should configure the display SPI, reset, command/data and backlight pins as appropriate. If you are using the mXT143E Xplained kit, this can be achieved by defining:
in your conf_board.h header file.
