Question

Can STM32F7x9 MCU's MIPI-DSI support up to 1280 x 800 resolution with at least 18 bit color?

We are planning to use STM32F7x9 to drive a 1280x800 TFT LCD panel via MIPI-DSI interface. But according to the datasheet, seems it only support up to 1280x720 or 720p resolution. Can it support 1280x800 resolution? We also need to support at least 18bit color, with RGB666 format I supposed. Also would like to have an idea how many fps it can support.

Can't you just do the math based on the bit rate of the two available DSI channels?​

That should at least define a ceiling.

Then look at the clocking combinations that fit the LTDC and DSI.

Not sure 18 bit is an option, might have to choose between 16 or 24 bits modes.​

The amount of external memory and the speed of the memory will also be constraining.​ As your bandwidth requirements are quite high, you'll want a 32 bit wide data bus.
