STM32

Hardware connection

The demo codes we provide are based on STM32F103ZET6, the connection table is also based on STM32F103ZET6, if you want to use other chip, you need to port the codes yourself and change the connection according to actual situation.

Connect to STM32F103ZET

Softawre settings

The codes are based on HAL library. Download the codes and the project files are saved under the STM32\STM32-F103ZET6\MDK-ARM directory.

Modify main.c， define the line according to the e-paper type and re-compile project and download.

Codes description

Bottom hardware interface

We package the bottom for different hardware platforms.
You can check the DEV_Config.c(.h) file which is located in \STM32\STM32-F103ZET6\User\Config

Data type:

#define UBYTE   uint8_t
#define UWORD   uint16_t
#define UDOUBLE uint32_t

Module initialized and exit:

void DEV_Module_Init(void);
void DEV_Module_Exit(void);

Note: 1.The functions are used to set GPIP before and after driving e-Paper.</ br> 2..If the board you have is printed with Rev2.1, module enter low-ultra mode after DEV_Module_Exit(). (as we test, the current is about 0 in this mode);</ br>

GPIO Read/Write：

void DEV_Digital_Write(UWORD Pin, UBYTE Value);
UBYTE DEV_Digital_Read(UWORD Pin);

SPI Write data

void DEV_SPI_WriteByte(UBYTE Value);

Middle EPD driver

The epd driver are saved in: STM32\STM32-F103ZET6\User\e-Paper
Open .h file, functions are declarated here

Initialization: It should be used to initialize e-Paper or wakeup e-Paper from sleep mode.

//2.13inch e-Paper、2.9inch e-Paper
void EPD_xxx_Init(UBYTE Mode); //ode = 0 Initialize full refresh; Mode = 1 Initilize partial refresh 
//Other type
void EPD_xxx_Init(void);

xxx is the type of e-paper

Clear display: This function is used to clear the e-paper to white

void EPD_xxx_Clear(void);

xxx is the type of e-Paper.

Transmit a frame of image and display

//Black/White e-Paper
void EPD_xxx_Display(UBYTE *Image);

Because controllers of2.13inch e-Paper V2 were updated, you need to use EPD_xxx_DisplayPartBaseImage to display static image and ten use EPD_xxx_displayPart() to dymatic display when partial refreshing.
void EPD_2IN13_V2_DisplayPart(UBYTE *Image);
void EPD_2IN13_V2_DisplayPartBaseImage(UBYTE *Image);

Enter sleep mode

void EPD_xxx_Sleep(void);

Note, You should hardware reset or use initialize function to wake up e-Paper from sleep mode
xxx is the type of e-Paper
