#BL602 Pins for #ST7789 SPI Display Controller ... Tentatively 🤔

https://github.com/lupyuen/bl_iot_sdk/blob/st7789/customer_app/sdk_app_st7789/sdk_app_st7789/demo.c#L45-L69

#ST7789 Code for #PineTime ... Tempted to copy and paste this for #BL602 🤔

https://github.com/lupyuen/pinetime-rust-mynewt/blob/master/libs/pinetime_boot/src/display.c#L205-L269

Porting the #PineTime Fallen Lorry to #BL602 😂 ... Forgot the Lorry Joke 🤔

https://gitlab.com/lupyuen/pinetime_lvgl_mynewt/-/tree/master/src/pinetime

#PineTime's "Fallen ST7789 Lorry" builds OK on #BL602 yay!

https://github.com/lupyuen/bl_iot_sdk/blob/st7789/customer_app/sdk_app_st7789/sdk_app_st7789/display.c

#PineCone #BL602 @PINE64 dumps Flash ROM to #ST7789 SPI Display ... Using code from #PineTime yay!

https://github.com/lupyuen/bl_iot_sdk/blob/st7789/customer_app/sdk_app_st7789/sdk_app_st7789/display.c

Let's call #LVGL from #BL602 ... To render graphics on #ST7789 SPI Display

https://github.com/lvgl/lvgl

#BL602 Makefiles look complicated ... Let's add #LVGL here for now

https://github.com/lupyuen/bl_iot_sdk/blob/st7789/make_scripts_riscv/component_wrapper.mk#L42-L51

#LVGL builds OK on #BL602 with #ST7789 Display yay! Let's test LVGL on BL602...

https://github.com/lupyuen/bl_iot_sdk/tree/st7789/customer_app/sdk_app_st7789/sdk_app_st7789

How I Build, Flash and Run #BL602 Firmware on macOS ... Yep I need to flip the #PineCone Jumper every time I do this 🤔

https://github.com/lupyuen/bl_iot_sdk/blob/st7789/customer_app/sdk_app_st7789/run.sh

Yep #LVGL runs on #BL602 ... But it hangs when rendering to #ST7789 ... Let's find out why 🤔

https://github.com/lupyuen/bl_iot_sdk/blob/st7789/customer_app/sdk_app_st7789/sdk_app_st7789/lvgl.c

Aha our #BL602 SPI Receive Buffer is too small for #LVGL! 😱 ... Rightfully we don't need an SPI Receive Buffer ... But the SPI HAL only supports SPI Transfers with Transmit AND Receive so 🤷🏻‍♂️ ... Let's increase the SPI Receive Buffer anyway

https://github.com/lupyuen/bl_iot_sdk/blob/st7789/customer_app/sdk_app_st7789/sdk_app_st7789/display.c#L323-L354

#PineCone #BL602 @PINE64 works great with #LVGL and #ST7789 yay! 🎉 Wasn't so hard ... Now lemme write everything down

https://github.com/lupyuen/bl_iot_sdk/tree/st7789/customer_app/sdk_app_st7789

Ugh #BL602 #ST7789 Fallen Lorry ... While cleaning up the code 🤔

Good Morning #PineCone #BL602 @ThePine64 ... Oops wrong logo

https://github.com/lupyuen/bl_iot_sdk/blob/st7789/customer_app/sdk_app_st7789/sdk_app_st7789/display.c#L83-L87

Mystery Fix for #BL602 #ST7789 Fallen Lorry 🤔

https://github.com/lupyuen/bl_iot_sdk/blob/st7789/customer_app/sdk_app_st7789/sdk_app_st7789/display.c#L126-L131

Hello Rainbow #PineCone #BL602 @PINE64

https://github.com/lupyuen/bl_iot_sdk/blob/st7789/customer_app/sdk_app_st7789/sdk_app_st7789/display.c#L83-L87

How we run a #BL602 Command at startup ... Useful for #IoT Gadgets and photoshoots

https://github.com/lupyuen/bl_iot_sdk/blob/st7789/customer_app/sdk_app_st7789/sdk_app_st7789/demo.c#L190-L201

Yep #PineCone #BL602 @ThePine64 runs on Batteries ... Should use this to measure Power Consumption 🤔

https://github.com/lupyuen/bl_iot_sdk/tree/st7789/customer_app/sdk_app_st7789

Any #BL602 Pin may be configured for PWM ... Very useful for dimming the ST7789 Backlight

https://github.com/lupyuen/bl_iot_sdk/blob/st7789/customer_app/sdk_app_st7789/sdk_app_st7789/display.c#L320-L332

How we connect #PineCone #BL602 @PINE64 to #ST7789 SPI Display

https://github.com/lupyuen/bl_iot_sdk/blob/st7789/customer_app/sdk_app_st7789/sdk_app_st7789/demo.c#L46-L59

#BL602 IoT SDK hides "assert()" messages by default ... Here's how we show Assertion Failures

https://github.com/lupyuen/bl_iot_sdk/blob/st7789/customer_app/sdk_app_st7789/sdk_app_st7789/demo.c#L198-L209

#PineCone #BL602 @PINE64 connected to #ST7789 at 2 MHz SPI with DMA ... 4 MHz SPI will hang sometimes 🤔

https://github.com/lupyuen/bl_iot_sdk/tree/st7789/customer_app/sdk_app_st7789

#LVGL on #BL602 is surprisingly pleasant ... Because we can see ALL the debug messages 👍

https://github.com/lupyuen/bl_iot_sdk/tree/st7789/customer_app/sdk_app_st7789

#BL602 SPI 4 MHz works with #ST7789 ... But only when we set the SPI Timeout 🤔

https://github.com/lupyuen/bl_iot_sdk/blob/st7789/customer_app/sdk_app_st7789/sdk_app_st7789/demo.c#L99-L107

Here's how we set SPI Timeout in #BL602 SPI HAL ... Default is to Wait Forever, which can cause problems with 4 MHz SPI

https://github.com/lupyuen/bl_iot_sdk/blob/st7789/components/hal_drv/bl602_hal/hal_spi.c#L346-L350

#BL602 SPI talking to #ST7789 at 4 MHz ... Works perfectly if the SPI Transmit Buffer is located in RAM ... Transmitting from Flash ROM might be too slow for 4 MHz DMA

https://github.com/lupyuen/bl_iot_sdk/blob/st7789/customer_app/sdk_app_st7789/sdk_app_st7789/display.c#L79-L194
