###### [Main README](./README.md)
# 1. Introduction
With the exception of the Sharp displays use of these drivers is very simple:
the main reason to consult this doc is to select the right driver for your
display, platform and application.
An application specifies a driver by means of `color_setup.py` or
`ssd1306_setup.py` located in the root directory of the target. This typically
contains code along these lines:
```python
import machine
import gc
from drivers.ssd1351.ssd1351 import SSD1351 as SSD # Choose device driver
pdc = machine.Pin('Y1', machine.Pin.OUT_PP, value=0)
pcs = machine.Pin('Y2', machine.Pin.OUT_PP, value=1)
prst = machine.Pin('Y3', machine.Pin.OUT_PP, value=1)
spi = machine.SPI(2)
gc.collect() # Precaution before instantiating framebuf
ssd = SSD(spi, pcs, pdc, prst, 96) # Create a display instance
```
In the interests of conserving RAM, supplied drivers support only the
functionality required by the GUI. More fully featured drivers may better suit
other applications.
## 1.1 Color handling
Most color displays support colors specified as 16-bit quantities. Storing two
bytes for every pixel results in large frame buffers. Most of the drivers
reduce this to 1 byte (the default) or 4 bits per pixel, with the data being
expanded at runtime when a line is displayed. This trades a large saving in RAM
for a small increase in refresh time. Minimising this increase while keeping
the driver cross-platform involves the use of the `viper` decorator.
Eight bit drivers store colors in `rrrgggbb`. This results in a loss of
precision in specifying a color. Four bit drivers store a color as the index
into a 16 bit lookup table. There is no loss of precision but only 16 distinct
colors can be supported.
The choice of 16, 8 or 4 bit drivers is largely transparent: all demo scripts
run in a visually identical manner under all drivers. This will apply to any
application which uses the predefined colors. Differences become apparent when
specifying custom colors. For detail see the main README
[User defined colors](./README.md#311-user-defined-colors).
# 2. Drivers for SSD1351
See [Adafruit 1.5" 128*128 OLED display](https://www.adafruit.com/product/1431)
and [Adafruit 1.27" 128*96 display](https://www.adafruit.com/product/1673).
There are four versions.
* `ssd1351.py` This is optimised for STM (e.g. Pyboard) platforms.
* `ssd1351_generic.py` Cross-platform version. Tested on ESP32 and ESP8266.
* `ssd1351_16bit.py` Cross-platform. Uses 16 bit RGB565 color.
* `ssd1351_4bit.py` Cross-platform. Uses 4 bit color.
All these drivers work with the provided demo scripts.
To conserve RAM the first two use 8 bit (rrrgggbb) color. This works well with
the GUI if saturated colors are used to render text and controls.
The `ssd1351_generic.py` and 4 bit versions use the `micropython.viper`
decorator. If your platform does not support this, comment it out and remove
the type annotations. You may be able to use the `micropython.native`
decorator.
If the platform supports the viper emitter performance should still be good: on
a Pyboard V1 the generic driver perorms a refresh of a 128*128 color display in
47ms. The STM version is faster but not by a large margin: a refresh takes
41ms. 32ms of these figures is consumed by the data transfer over the SPI
interface. The 4-bit version with Viper takes 44ms.
If the viper and native decorators are unsupported a screen redraw takes 272ms
(on Pyboard 1.0) which is visibly slow.
The `ssd1351_16bit` version on a 128x128 display requires 32KiB for the frame
buffer; this means it is only usable on platforms with plenty of RAM. Testing
was done on a Pyboard D SF2W. With the GUI this version offers no benefit, but
it delivers major advantages in applications such as rendering images.
For further information see the GUI README
[User defined colors](./README.md#311-user-defined-colors).
This driver was tested on Adafruit 1.5 and 1.27 inch displays.
#### SSD1351 Constructor args:
* `spi` An SPI bus instance.
* `pincs` An initialised output pin. Initial value should be 1.
* `pindc` An initialised output pin. Initial value should be 0.
* `pinrs` An initialised output pin. Initial value should be 1.
* `height=128` Display dimensions in pixels. Height must be 96 or 128.
* `width=128`
* `init_spi=spi_init` This optional arg enables flexible options in
configuring the SPI bus. The default preserves existing behaviour: the SPI bus
is initialised to 20MHz before each use. Other `spi.init` args are default.
This facilitates bus sharing. Passing `False` disables this: `color_setup.py`
must initialise the bus. Those settings will be left in place. If a callback
function is passed, it will be called prior to each SPI bus write: this is for
shared bus applications where a non-standard `init` is required. The callback
will receive a single arg being the SPI bus instance. In normal use it will be
a one-liner or lambda initialising the bus. The default is this function:
```python
def spi_init(spi):
spi.init(baudrate=20_000_000) # Data sheet: should support 20MHz
```
#### A "gotcha" in the datasheet
For anyone seeking to understand or modify the code, the datasheet para 8.3.2
is confusing. They use the colors red, green and blue to represent colors C, B
and A. With the setup used in these drivers, C is blue and A is red. The 16 bit
color streams sent to the display are:
s[x] 1st byte sent b7 b6 b5 b4 b3 g7 g6 g5
s[x + 1] 2nd byte sent g4 g3 g2 r7 r6 r5 r4 r3
###### [Contents](./DRIVERS.md#contents)
# 3. Drivers for SSD1331
See [Adafruit 0.96" OLED display](https://www.adafruit.com/product/684).
There are two versions. Both are cross-platform.
* `ssd1331.py` Uses 8 bit rrrgggbb color.
* `ssd1331_16bit.py` Uses 16 bit RGB565 color.
The `ssd1331_16bit` version requires 12KiB of RAM for the frame buffer, while
the standard version needs only 6KiB. For the GUI the standard version works
well because text and controls are normally drawn with saturated colors.
The 16 bit version provides greatly improved results when rendering images.
#### SSD1331 Constructor args:
* `spi` An SPI bus instance.
* `pincs` An initialised output pin. Initial value should be 1.
* `pindc` An initialised output pin. Initial value should be 0.
* `pinrs` An initialised output pin. Initial value should be 1.
* `height=64` Display dimensions in pixels.
* `width=96`
This driver initialises the SPI clock rate and polarity as required by the
device. The device can support clock rates of upto 6.66MHz.
# 4. Drivers for ST7735R
These are cross-platform but assume `micropython.viper` capability. They use
8-bit color to minimise the RAM used by the frame buffer.
* `st7735r.py` Supports [Adafruit 1.8" display](https://www.adafruit.com/product/358).
* `st7735r144.py` Supports [Adafruit 1.44" display](https://www.adafruit.com/product/2088).
Users of other ST7735R based displays should beware: there are many variants
with differing setup requirements.
[This driver](https://github.com/boochow/MicroPython-ST7735/blob/master/ST7735.py)
has four different initialisation routines for various display versions. Even
the supported Adafruit displays differ in their initialisation settings.
If your Chinese display doesn't work with my drivers you are on your own: I
can't support hardware I don't possess.
#### ST7735R Constructor args:
* `spi` An initialised SPI bus instance. The device can support clock rates of
upto 15MHz.
* `cs` An initialised output pin. Initial value should be 1.
* `dc` An initialised output pin. Initial value should be 0.
* `rst` An initialised output pin. Initial value should be 1.
* `height=128` Display dimensions in pixels. For portrait mode exchange
`height` and `width` values.
* `width=160`
* `usd=False` Upside down: set `True` to invert display.
* `init_spi=False` This optional arg enables flexible options in configuring
the SPI bus. The default assumes exclusive access to the bus with
`color_setup.py` initialising it. Those settings will be left in place. If a
callback function is passed, it will be called prior to each SPI bus write:
this is for shared bus applications. The callback will receive a single arg
being the SPI bus instance. In normal use it will be a one-liner or lambda
initialising the bus. A minimal example is this function:
```python
def spi_init(spi):
spi.init(baudrate=12_000_000) # Data sheet: max is 12MHz
```
# 5. Drivers for ILI9341
Adafruit make several displays using this chip, for example
[this 3.2 inch unit](https://www.adafruit.com/product/1743).
#### ILI9341 Constructor args:
* `spi` An initialised SPI bus instance. The device can support clock rates of
upto 10MHz.
* `cs` An initialised output pin. Initial value should be 1.
* `dc` An initialised output pin. Initial value should be 0.
* `rst` An initialised output pin. Initial value should be 1.
* `height=240` Display dimensions in pixels. For portrait mode exchange
`height` and `width` values.
* `width=320`
* `usd=False` Upside down: set `True` to invert display.
* `split=False` By default the entire display is refreshed by the `show`
method. A partial update may be specified for use with `uasyncio`. See below.
* `init_spi=False` This optional arg enables flexible options in configuring
the SPI bus. The default assumes exclusive access to the bus with
`color_setup.py` initialising it. Those settings will be left in place. If a
callback function is passed, it will be called prior to each SPI bus write:
this is for shared bus applications. The callback will receive a single arg
being the SPI bus instance. In normal use it will be a one-liner or lambda
initialising the bus. A minimal example is this function:
```python
def spi_init(spi):
spi.init(baudrate=10_000_000) # Data sheet: max is 10MHz
```
The ILI9341 class uses 4-bit color to conserve RAM. Even with this adaptation
the buffer size is 37.5KiB. See [Color handling](./DRIVERS.md#11-color-handling)
for details of the implications of 4-bit color.
The driver uses the `micropython.viper` decorator. If your platform does not
support this, comment it out and remove the type annotations. You may be able
to use the `micropython.native` decorator.
#### Use with uasyncio
A full refresh blocks for ~200ms. This may be unacceptable for some `uasyncio`
applications. The `split` constructor arg limits the number of display lines
which are updated at one time, reducing the blocking time. To use this, an
integer value of 2, 4, or 8 should be passed. For example to reduce blocking by
a factor of ~4 to 50ms the `split` constructor arg is set to 4.
For any value the following keeps the display updated:
```python
import uasyncio as asyncio
from gui.core.nanogui import refresh
async def keep_refreshed(ssd):
while True:
refresh(ssd) # Blocks for a period defined by split
await asyncio.sleep_ms(0)
```

# 6. Drivers for sharp displays
These monochrome SPI displays exist in three variants from Adafruit.
1. [2.7 inch 400x240 pixels](https://www.adafruit.com/product/4694)
2. [1.3 inch 144x168](https://www.adafruit.com/product/3502)
3. [1.3 inch 96x96](https://www.adafruit.com/product/1393) - Discontinued.
I have tested on the first of these. However the
[Adfruit driver](https://github.com/adafruit/Adafruit_CircuitPython_SharpMemoryDisplay)
supports all of these and I would expect this one also to do so.
## 6.1. Display characteristics
These displays have extremely low current consumption: I measured ~90μA on the
2.7" board when in use. Refresh is fast, visually excellent and can run at up
to 20Hz. This contrasts with ePaper (eInk) displays where refresh is slow
(seconds) and visually intrusive; an alternative fast mode overcomes this, but
at the expense of ghosting.
On the other hand the power consumption of ePaper can be zero (you can switch
them off and the display is retained). If you power down a Sharp display the
image is retained, but only for a few seconds. In a Pyboard context 90μA is low
in comparison to stop mode and battery powered applications should be easily
realised.
The 2.7" display has excellent resolution and can display fine lines and small
fonts. In other respects the display quality is not as good as ePaper. For good
contrast best results are achieved if the viewing angle and the direction of
the light source are positioned to achieve reflection.
### 6.1.1 The VCOM bit
The significance of this is somewhat glossed-over in the Adafruit docs, and a
study of the datasheet is confusing in the absence of prior knowledge of LCD
technology.
The signals applied to an LCD display should have no DC component. This is
because DC can cause gradual electrolysis and deterioration of of the liquid
crystal material. Display driver hardware typically has an oscillator driving
exclusive-or gates such that antiphase signals are applied for ON pixels, and
in-phase for OFF pixels. The oscillator typically drives a D-type flip-flop to
ensure an accurate 1:1 mark space ratio and hence zero DC component.
These displays offer two ways of achieving this, in the device driver or using
an external 1:1 mark space logic signal. The bit controlling this is known as
`VCOM` and the external pins supporting it are `EXTMODE` and `EXTCOMIN`.
`EXTMODE` determines whether a hardware input is used (`Vcc`) or software
control is required (`Gnd`). It is pulled low.
The driver supports software control, in that `VCOM` is complemented each time
the display is refreshed. The Adafruit driver also does this.
Sofware control implies that, in long running applications, the display should
regularly be refreshed. The datasheet incicates that the maximum rate is 20Hz,
but a 1Hz rate is sufficient.
If hardware control is to be used, `EXTMODE` should be linked to `Vcc` and a
1:1 logic signal applied to `EXTCOMIN`. A frequency range of 0.5-10Hz is
specified, and the datasheet also specifies "`EXTCOMIN` frequency should be
made lower than frame frequency".
In my opinion the easiest way to deal with this is usually to use software
control, ensuring that the driver's `show` method is called at regular
intervals of at least 1Hz.
### 6.1.2 Refresh rate
The datasheet specifies a minimum refresh rate of 1Hz.
## 6.2. Test scripts
1. `sharptest.py` Basic functionality test.
2. `clocktest.py` Digital and analog clock display.
3. `clock_batt.py` As above but designed for low power operation. Pyboard
specific.
Tests assume that `nanogui` is installed as per the instructions. `sharptest`
should not be run for long periods as it does not regularly refresh the
display. It tests `writer.py` and some `framebuffer` graphics primitives.
`clocktest` demostrates use with `nanogui`.
The `clock_batt.py` demo needs `upower.py` from
[micropython-micropower](https://github.com/peterhinch/micropython-micropower).
Testing was done on a Pyboard D SF6W: frozen bytecode was not required. I
suspect a Pyboard 1.x would require it to prevent memory errors. Fonts in
particular benefit from freezing as their RAM usage is radically reduced.
## 6.3. Device driver constructor
Positional args:
1. `spi` An SPI bus instance. The constructor initialises this to the baudrate
and bit order required by the hardware.
2. `pincs` A `Pin` instance. The caller should initialise this as an output
with value 0 (unusually the hardware CS line is active high).
3. `height=240` Dimensions in pixels. Defaults are for 2.7" display.
4. `width=400`
5. `vcom=False` Accept the default unless using `pyb.standby`. See 3.2.
### 6.3.1 Device driver methods
1. `show` No args. Transfers the framebuffer contents to the device, updating
the display.
2. `update` Toggles the `VCOM` bit without transferring the framebuffer. This
is a power saving method for cases where the application calls `show` at a
rate of < 1Hz. In such cases `update` should be called at a 1Hz rate.
### 6.3.2 The vcom arg
It purpose is to support micropower applications which use `pyb.standby`.
Wakeup from standby is similar to a reboot in that program execution starts
from scratch. In the case where the board wakes up, writes to the display, and
returns to standby, the `VCOM` bit would never change. In this case the
application should store a `bool` in peristent storage, toggling it on each
restart, and pass that to the constructor.
Persistent storage exists in the RTC registers and backup RAM. See
[micopython-micropower](https://github.com/peterhinch/micropython-micropower)
for details of how to acces these resources.
## 6.4. Application design
In all cases the frame buffer is located on the target hardware. In the case of
the 2.7 inch display this is 400*240//8 = 12000 bytes in size. This should be
instantiated as soon as possible in the application to ensure that sufficient
contiguous RAM is available.
### 6.4.1 Micropower applications
These comments largely assume a Pyboard host. The application should import
`upower` from
[micropython-micropower](https://github.com/peterhinch/micropython-micropower).
This turns the USB interface off if not in use to conserve power. It also
provides an `lpdelay` function to implement a delay using `pyb.stop()` to
conserve power.
In tests the `clock_batt` demo consumed 700μA between updates. A full refresh
every 30s consumed about 48mA for 128ms. These figures correspond to a mean
current consumption of 904μA implying about 46 days operation per AH of
battery capacity. LiPo cells of 2AH capacity are widely available offering a
theoretical runtime of 92 days between charges.
Lower currents might be achieved using standby but I have major doubts. This is
because it is necessary to toggle the VCOM bit at a minimum of 1Hz. Waking from
standby uses significan amounts of power as the modules are compiled. Even if
frozen bytecode is used, there is still significant power usage importing
modules and instantiating classes; this usage is not incurred in the loop in
the demo.

# 7. Writing device drivers
Device drivers capable of supporting `nanogui` can be extremely simple: see
`drivers/sharp/sharp.py` for a minimal example. It should be noted that the
supplied device drivers are designed purely to support nanogui. To conserve RAM
they provide no functionality beyond the transfer of an external frame buffer
to the device. This transfer typically takes a few tens of milliseconds. While
visually instant, this period constitutes latency between an event occurring
and a consequent display update. This may be unacceptable in applications such
as games. In such cases the `FrameBuffer` approach is inappropriate. Many
driver chips support graphics primitives in hardware; drivers using these
capabilities will be faster than those provided here and may often be found
using a forum search.
For a driver to support `nanogui` it must be subclassed from
`framebuf.FrameBuffer` and provide `height` and `width` bound variables being
the display size in pixels. This, and a `show` method, are all that is required
for monochrome drivers.
Refresh must be handled by a `show` method taking no arguments; when called,
the contents of the buffer underlying the `FrameBuffer` must be copied to the
hardware.
For color drivers, to conserve RAM it is suggested that 8-bit color is used
for the `FrameBuffer`. If the hardware does not support this, conversion to the
supported color space needs to be done "on the fly" as per the SSD1351 driver.
This uses `framebuf.GS8` to stand in for 8 bit color in `rrrgggbb` format. To
maximise update speed consider using native, viper or assembler for the
conversion, typically to RGB565 format.
Color drivers should have a static method converting rgb(255, 255, 255) to a
form acceptable to the driver. For 8-bit rrrgggbb this can be:
```python
@staticmethod
def rgb(r, g, b):
return (r & 0xe0) | ((g >> 3) & 0x1c) | (b >> 6)
```
This should be amended if the hardware uses a different 8-bit format.
The `Writer` (monochrome) or `CWriter` (color) classes and the `nanogui` module
should then work automatically.
Drivers for displays using I2C may need to use
[I2C.writevto](http://docs.micropython.org/en/latest/library/machine.I2C.html?highlight=writevto#machine.I2C.writevto)
depending on the chip requirements.

# 1. Introduction
This library provides a limited set of GUI objects (widgets) for displays whose
display driver is subclassed from the `FrameBuffer` class. Such drivers can be
tiny as the graphics primitives are supplied by the `FrameBuffer` class.
The GUI is display-only and lacks provision for user input. Displays with touch
overlays are physically large, with correspondingly high pixel counts. Such

### 2.2.2 Color use
Drivers for Adafruit 0.96", 1.27" and 1.5" OLEDS are included in the source
tree. Each driver has its own small `README.md`. The default driver for the
larger OLEDs is Pyboard specific, but there are slightly slower cross platform
alternatives in the directory - see the code below for usage on ESP32.
If using the Adafruit 1.5 or 1.27 inch color OLED displays it is suggested that
after installing the GUI the following script is pasted at the REPL. This will
verify the hardware. Please change `height` to 128 if using the 1.5 inch
display.
This script performs a basic check that the `color_setup.py` file matches the
hardware, that all three primary colors can be displayed and that pixels up to
the edges of the display can be accessed.
```python
from machine import Pin, SPI
from drivers.ssd1351.ssd1351 import SSD1351 as SSD # Pyboard-specific driver
height = 96 # Ensure height is correct (96/128)
pdc = Pin('Y1', Pin.OUT_PP, value=0)
pcs = Pin('Y2', Pin.OUT_PP, value=1)
prst = Pin('Y3', Pin.OUT_PP, value=1)
spi = SPI(2)
ssd = SSD(spi, pcs, pdc, prst, height=height)

refresh(ssd, True) # Initialise and clear display.

ssd.rect(0, 0, 15, 15, ssd.rgb(255, 0, 0)) # Red square at top left

On ESP32 the following may be used:

Initialisation of text display follows. For each font a `CWriter` instance

then subsequently whenever a refresh is required. The method takes two args:
Calling `nanogui.refresh` on startup sets up and clears the display. The method
will subsequently be called whenever a refresh is required. It takes two args:
1. `device` The display instance (the GUI supports multiple displays).
2. `clear=False` If set `True` the display will be blanked; it is also
blanked when a device is refreshed for the first time.
### 3.1.1 Setup file internals
### 3.1.1 User defined colors
The file `color_setup.py` contains the hardware dependent code. It works as
described below, with the aim of allocating the `FrameBuffer` before importing
other modules. This is intended to reduce the risk of memory failures.
The file `gui/core/colors.py` defines standard color constants which may be
used with any display driver. This section describes how to change these or
to create additional colors.
Firstly the file sets the display height and imports the driver:
Most of the color display drivers define colors as 8-bit or larger values.
In such cases colors may be created and assigned to variables as follows:
```python
height = 96 # 1.27 inch 96*128 (rows*cols) display. Set to 128 for 1.5 inch
import machine
import gc
from drivers.ssd1351.ssd1351 import SSD1351 as SSD # Import the display driver
from color_setup import SSD
PALE_YELLOW = SSD.rgb(150, 150, 0)
```
It then sets up the bus (SPI or I2C) and instantiates the display. At this
point the framebuffer is created:
The GUI also provides drivers with 4-bit color to minimise RAM use. Colors are
assigned to a lookup table having 16 entries. The frame buffer stores 4-bit
color values, which are converted to the correct color depth for the hardware
when the display is refreshed.
Of the possible 16 colors 13 are assigned in `gui/core/colors.py`, leaving
color numbers 12, 13 and 14 free. Any color can be assigned as follows:
```python
pdc = machine.Pin('X1', machine.Pin.OUT_PP, value=0)
pcs = machine.Pin('X2', machine.Pin.OUT_PP, value=1)
prst = machine.Pin('X3', machine.Pin.OUT_PP, value=1)
spi = machine.SPI(1)
gc.collect() # Precaution before instantiating framebuf
ssd = SSD(spi, pcs, pdc, prst, height) # Create a display instance
from gui.core.colors import * # Imports the create_color function
PALE_YELLOW = create_color(12, 150, 150, 0)
```
This creates a color `rgb(150, 150, 0)` assigns it to "spare" color number 12
then sets `PALE_YELLOW` to 12. Any color number in range `0 <= n <= 15` may be
used (implying that predefined colors may be reassigned). It is recommended
that `BLACK` (0) and `WHITE` (15) are not changed.

# 4. Device drivers
Device drivers capable of supporting `nanogui` can be extremely simple: see
`drivers/sharp/sharp.py` for a minimal example. It should be noted that the
supplied device drivers are designed purely to support nanogui. To conserve RAM
they provide no functionality beyond the transfer of an external frame buffer
to the device. This transfer typically takes a few tens of milliseconds. While
visually instant, this period constitutes latency between an event occurring
and a consequent display update. This may be unacceptable in applications such
as games. In such cases the `FrameBuffer` approach is inappropriate. Many
driver chips support graphics primitives in hardware; drivers using these
capabilities will be faster than those provided here and may often be found
using a forum search.
For a driver to support `nanogui` it must be subclassed from
`framebuf.FrameBuffer` and provide `height` and `width` bound variables being
the display size in pixels. This, and a `show` method, are all that is required
for monochrome drivers.
Refresh must be handled by a `show` method taking no arguments; when called,
the contents of the buffer underlying the `FrameBuffer` must be copied to the
hardware.
For color drivers, to conserve RAM it is suggested that 8-bit color is used
for the `FrameBuffer`. If the hardware does not support this, conversion to the
supported color space needs to be done "on the fly" as per the SSD1351 driver.
This uses `framebuf.GS8` to stand in for 8 bit color in `rrrgggbb` format. To
maximise update speed consider using native, viper or assembler for the
conversion, typically to RGB565 format.
Color drivers should have a static method converting rgb(255, 255, 255) to a
form acceptable to the driver. For 8-bit rrrgggbb this can be:
```python
@staticmethod
def rgb(r, g, b):
return (r & 0xe0) | ((g >> 3) & 0x1c) | (b >> 6)
```
This should be amended if the hardware uses a different 8-bit format.
The `Writer` (monochrome) or `CWriter` (color) classes and the `nanogui` module
should then work automatically.
Drivers for displays using I2C may need to use
[I2C.writevto](http://docs.micropython.org/en/latest/library/machine.I2C.html?highlight=writevto#machine.I2C.writevto)

The file `color_setup.py` contains the hardware dependent code. It works as
described below, with the aim of allocating the `FrameBuffer` before importing
other modules. This is intended to reduce the risk of memory failures.

# A MICROPYTHON DRIVER FOR SHARP DISPLAYS
These monochrome SPI displays exist in three variants from Adafruit.
1. [2.7 inch 400x240 pixels](https://www.adafruit.com/product/4694)
2. [1.3 inch 144x168](https://www.adafruit.com/product/3502)
3. [1.3 inch 96x96](https://www.adafruit.com/product/1393) - Discontinued.
I have tested on the first of these. However the
[Adfruit driver](https://github.com/adafruit/Adafruit_CircuitPython_SharpMemoryDisplay)
supports all of these and I would expect this one also to do so.
# 1. Display characteristics
These displays have extremely low current consumption: I measured ~90μA on the
2.7" board when in use. Refresh is fast, visually excellent and can run at up
to 20Hz. This contrasts with ePaper (eInk) displays where refresh is slow
(seconds) and visually intrusive; an alternative fast mode overcomes this, but
at the expense of ghosting.
On the other hand the power consumption of ePaper can be zero (you can switch
them off and the display is retained). If you power down a Sharp display the
image is retained, but only for a few seconds. In a Pyboard context 90μA is low
in comparison to stop mode and battery powered applications should be easily
realised.
The 2.7" display has excellent resolution and can display fine lines and small
fonts. In other respects the display quality is not as good as ePaper. For good
contrast best results are achieved if the viewing angle and the direction of
the light source are positioned to achieve reflection.
## 1.1 The VCOM bit
The significance of this is somewhat glossed-over in the Adafruit docs, and a
study of the datasheet is confusing in the absence of prior knowledge of LCD
technology.
The signals applied to an LCD display should have no DC component. This is
because DC can cause gradual electrolysis and deterioration of of the liquid
crystal material. Display driver hardware typically has an oscillator driving
exclusive-or gates such that antiphase signals are applied for ON pixels, and
in-phase for OFF pixels. The oscillator typically drives a D-type flip-flop to
ensure an accurate 1:1 mark space ratio and hence zero DC component.
These displays offer two ways of achieving this, in the device driver or using
an external 1:1 mark space logic signal. The bit controlling this is known as
`VCOM` and the external pins supporting it are `EXTMODE` and `EXTCOMIN`.
`EXTMODE` determines whether a hardware input is used (`Vcc`) or software
control is required (`Gnd`). It is pulled low.
The driver supports software control, in that `VCOM` is complemented each time
the display is refreshed. The Adafruit driver also does this.
Sofware control implies that, in long running applications, the display should
regularly be refreshed. The datasheet incicates that the maximum rate is 20Hz,
but a 1Hz rate is sufficient.
If hardware control is to be used, `EXTMODE` should be linked to `Vcc` and a
1:1 logic signal applied to `EXTCOMIN`. A frequency range of 0.5-10Hz is
specified, and the datasheet also specifies "`EXTCOMIN` frequency should be
made lower than frame frequency".
In my opinion the easiest way to deal with this is usually to use software
control, ensuring that the driver's `show` method is called at regular
intervals of at least 1Hz.
## 1.2 Refresh rate
The datasheet specifies a minimum refresh rate of 1Hz.
# 2. Test scripts
1. `sharptest.py` Basic functionality test.
2. `clocktest.py` Digital and analog clock display.
3. `clock_batt.py` As above but designed for low power operation. Pyboard
specific.
Tests assume that `nanogui` is installed as per the instructions. `sharptest`
should not be run for long periods as it does not regularly refresh the
display. It tests `writer.py` and some `framebuffer` graphics primitives.
`clocktest` demostrates use with `nanogui`.
The `clock_batt.py` demo needs `upower.py` from
[micropython-micropower](https://github.com/peterhinch/micropython-micropower).
Testing was done on a Pyboard D SF6W: frozen bytecode was not required. I
suspect a Pyboard 1.x would require it to prevent memory errors. Fonts in
particular benefit from freezing as their RAM usage is radically reduced.
# 3. Device driver constructor
Positional args:
1. `spi` An SPI bus instance. The constructor initialises this to the baudrate
and bit order required by the hardware.
2. `pincs` A `Pin` instance. The caller should initialise this as an output
with value 0 (unusually the hardware CS line is active high).
3. `height=240` Dimensions in pixels. Defaults are for 2.7" display.
4. `width=400`
5. `vcom=False` Accept the default unless using `pyb.standby`. See 3.2.
# 3.1 Device driver methods
1. `show` No args. Transfers the framebuffer contents to the device, updating
the display.
2. `update` Toggles the `VCOM` bit without transferring the framebuffer. This
is a power saving method for cases where the application calls `show` at a
rate of < 1Hz. In such cases `update` should be called at a 1Hz rate.
# 3.2 The vcom arg
It purpose is to support micropower applications which use `pyb.standby`.
Wakeup from standby is similar to a reboot in that program execution starts
from scratch. In the case where the board wakes up, writes to the display, and
returns to standby, the `VCOM` bit would never change. In this case the
application should store a `bool` in peristent storage, toggling it on each
restart, and pass that to the constructor.
Persistent storage exists in the RTC registers and backup RAM. See
[micopython-micropower](https://github.com/peterhinch/micropython-micropower)
for details of how to acces these resources.
# 4. Application design
In all cases the frame buffer is located on the target hardware. In the case of
the 2.7 inch display this is 400*240//8 = 12000 bytes in size. This should be
instantiated as soon as possible in the application to ensure that sufficient
contiguous RAM is available.
## 4.1 Micropower applications
These comments largely assume a Pyboard host. The application should import
`upower` from
[micropython-micropower](https://github.com/peterhinch/micropython-micropower).
This turns the USB interface off if not in use to conserve power. It also
provides an `lpdelay` function to implement a delay using `pyb.stop()` to
conserve power.
In tests the `clock_batt` demo consumed 700μA between updates. A full refresh
every 30s consumed about 48mA for 128ms. These figures correspond to a mean
current consumption of 904μA implying about 46 days operation per AH of
battery capacity. LiPo cells of 2AH capacity are widely available offering a
theoretical runtime of 92 days between charges.
Lower currents might be achieved using standby but I have major doubts. This is
because it is necessary to toggle the VCOM bit at a minimum of 1Hz. Waking from
standby uses significan amounts of power as the modules are compiled. Even if
frozen bytecode is used, there is still significant power usage importing
modules and instantiating classes; this usage is not incurred in the loop in
the demo.

# Drivers for SSD1331 (Adafruit 0.96" OLED display)
There are two versions. Both are designed to be cross-platform.
* `ssd1331.py` Uses 8 bit rrrgggbb color.
* `ssd1331_16bit.py` Uses 16 bit RGB565 color.
The `ssd1331_16bit` version requires 12KiB of RAM for the frame buffer, while
the standard version needs only 6KiB. For the GUI the standard version works
well because text and controls are normally drawn with saturated colors.
The 16 bit version provides greatly improved results when rendering images.

# Drivers for SSD1351
There are three versions.
* `ssd1351.py` This is optimised for STM (e.g. Pyboard) platforms.
* `ssd1351_generic.py` Cross-platform version. Tested on ESP32 and ESP8266.
* `ssd1351_16bit.py` Cross-platform. Uses 16 bit RGB565 color.
To conserve RAM the first two use 8 bit (rrrgggbb) color. This works well with
the GUI if saturated colors are used to render text and controls.
The `ssd1351_generic.py` version includes the `micropython.viper` decorator. If
your platform does not support this, comment it out and remove the type
annotations. You may be able to use the `micropython.native` decorator.
If the platform supports the viper emitter performance should still be good: on
a Pyboard V1 this driver perorms a refresh of a 128*128 color display in 47ms.
The STM version is faster but not by a large margin: a refresh takes 41ms. 32ms
of these figures is consumed by the data transfer over the SPI interface.
If the viper and native decorators are unsupported a screen redraw takes 272ms
(on Pyboard 1.0) which is visibly slow.
The `ssd1351_16bit` version on a 128x128 display requires 32KiB for the frame
buffer; this means it is only usable on platforms with plenty of RAM. Testing
was done on a Pyboard D SF2W. With the GUI this version offers little benefit,
but it delivers major advantages in applications such as rendering images.
This driver was tested on official Adafruit 1.5 and 1.27 inch displays, also a
Chinese 1.5 inch unit.

# Drivers for ST7735R
These are cross-platform but assume `micropython.viper` capability. They use
8-bit color to minimise the RAM used by the frame buffer.
* `st7735r.py` Supports [Adafruit 1.8" display](https://www.adafruit.com/product/358).
* `st7735r144.py` Supports [Adafruit 1.44" display](https://www.adafruit.com/product/2088).
Users of other ST7735R based displays should beware: there are many variants
with differing setup requirements.
[This driver](https://github.com/boochow/MicroPython-ST7735/blob/master/ST7735.py)
has four different initialisation routines for various display versions. Even
the supported Adafruit displays differ in their initialisation settings.
If your Chinese display doesn't work with my drivers you are on your own: I
can't support hardware I don't possess.
