CH32V003 ST7735 Driver

A minimal ST7735 LCD driver for CH32V003 that supports both ch32v003fun and PlatformIO CH32V. It should also work in MounRiver Studio.

DMA is used to accelerate the data transmission where possible.

Usage

Wiring

ST7735 8-pin module

ST7735 8-Pin Module

CH32V003 ST7735 Power Description
1 - LEDA Connect to 3V3 via a 15-100Ω resistor
2 - GND GND GND
PC2 3 - RESET Reset
PC3 4 - RS DC (Data / Command)
PC6 (SPI MOSI) 5 - SDA SPI MOSI (Master Output Slave In)
PC5 (SPI SCLK) 6 - SCL SPI SCLK (Serial Clock)
7 - VDD 3V3 VDD
PC4 8 - CS SPI CS/SS (Chip/Slave Select)

Note: To not use CS, define the ST7735_NO_CS macro in st7735.h. Make ST7735 always enabled by pulling CS to ground.

#define ST7735_NO_CS

Initialization

Include the header file.

#include "st7735.h"

Then invoke tft_init() function to initialize the driver.

tft_init();

Text

Print a string.

tft_set_color(RED);
tft_set_background_color(BLACK);
tft_set_cursor(2, 2);
tft_print("Hello World!");

Print integers.

tft_set_color(RED);
tft_set_background_color(BLACK);
tft_set_cursor(2, 10);
tft_print_number(123, 0);   // Align left as the width is less thant the number.
tft_set_cursor(2, 20);
tft_print_number(-123, 30); // Align right as the width is greater than the number.

Drawing

Draw a pixel.

tft_draw_pixel(80, 30, RED);

Draw a line.

tft_draw_line(10, 10, 30, 30, BLUE);

Draw a rectangle.

tft_draw_rect(10, 10, 30, 30, BLUE);

Fill a rectangle area.

tft_fill_rect(10, 10, 30, 30, BLUE);

Configuration

Depends on which ST7735 variants you have, it may require different configurations. You can configure the behavior in st7735.h or st7735.c.

Change Resolution and Offset

// st7735.h
#define ST7735_WIDTH    160
#define ST7735_HEIGHT   80
#define ST7735_X_OFFSET 1
#define ST7735_Y_OFFSET 26

RGB Color Macro

// st7735.h
#define RGB565(r, g, b) ((((r)&0xF8) << 8) | (((g)&0xFC) << 3) | ((b) >> 3))
#define BGR565(r, g, b) ((((b)&0xF8) << 8) | (((g)&0xFC) << 3) | ((r) >> 3))
#define RGB             RGB565

Set Rotation and RGB Ordering

// st7735.c
void tft_init(void)
{
    ...
    // Set rotation
    write_command_8(ST7735_MADCTL);
    write_data_8(ST7735_MADCTL_MY | ST7735_MADCTL_MV | ST7735_MADCTL_BGR);  // 0 - Horizontal
    // write_data_8(ST7735_MADCTL_BGR);                                        // 1 - Vertical
    // write_data_8(ST7735_MADCTL_MX | ST7735_MADCTL_MV | ST7735_MADCTL_BGR);  // 2 - Horizontal
    // write_data_8(ST7735_MADCTL_MX | ST7735_MADCTL_MY | ST7735_MADCTL_BGR);  // 3 - Vertical
    ...
}

Invert Colors

// st7735.c
void tft_init(void)
{
    ...
    // Invert display
    write_command_8(ST7735_INVON);
    // write_command_8(ST7735_INVOFF);
    ...
}

Known Issues

  • (Fixed) The CS pin does not work understand PlatformIO. Pull the CS pin to ground as a temporary solution.
  • (Fixed) The draw text function creates partial text on a diagonal line from top left, I thought it is caused by hardware, it turns out I set a mistake the Y coordinate as X coordinate.
