hi.
i would like to start anew project with stm32f207 with lcd. i know that the stm32f207 can controll lcd throw FSMC bus my question is whats the maximum size of lcd i can use and how do find whitch LCD monitors i can connect to FSMC? thanks very much for your help.2011-08-08 08:44 AM
The size limit of the LCD's that attach directly with a DMA type interface, is the availability of enough memory to act as a video buffer.
For large displays you're going need to look for panels with build in controllers, and video memory.2011-08-15 05:01 AM
what are my options i am looking for avery cheep lcd and as big as possiable .
how do i know what size will work? and what kind of LCD can i connect to the FSMC BUS? thanks.2011-08-15 12:36 PM
Physical size or resolution?
You are going to have to provide some bounding conditions on pricing and size. Where's you're min/max sweet point? What's considered cheap for a 42'' panel is probably a lot different than for one that's 2'', 3'' or 4''. See what people are using on STM32 dev boards, plenty of vendors on eBay, and at least one guy who comes to this forum once a month hawking his wares. See what displays ST is using, get part# and find a vendor to quote equivalent displays.2011-08-15 10:09 PM

I tried a 5.7'' TFT glass( without inbuilt controller) QVGA(320 x 240) resolution with STM32F2. It's working fine.
The thing which matters is the resolution. You can also drive a 7'' TFT of QVGA resolution by STM32F2.2011-08-16 02:40 AM
thanks for the repaly.
do you have the schamtic? did you connect it throw the FSMC? what king of LCD did you connected? where can i find it? thanks.2011-08-16 03:44 AM
Yes the interface is FSMC. The schematic is under development. I tested the prototype using STM32F2 eval board.
The TFT is controller less. It is from ampire. the part no. is AM320240N6T MQWT50H-A(5.7'') .2011-08-16 06:52 AM
