Abstract

This paper describes a scheme for the integration of a LCD driver IP embedded within an ARM-based system-on-chip platform. The LCD driver IP with dot matrix scalable capability can interface to AMBA on chip bus is implemented by hardware description language as a RTL design. The wrapper architecture for AMBA interface is proposed The advantages of the proposed design are easy modification of the common and segment output lines, increasing flexibility for various types of LCD panels with scalable architecture. In our study, the proposed module was verified in ARM AMRA University Kit (AUK) environment.
