Hi..Martin..thank for ur response ..
here i attached my data sheet for 10" TFT lcd and 1788 user manual also..i cant find the value for front porch and back porch..
if u got any idea for horizantal and vertical front porch or back porch value tell me.thanks advance.

Is this the right display for the LPC1788?????

a) Have you checked the SDRAM bandwidth you need?
b) Have you checked how to create the LVDS serial data streams for the display?

The only mentioned video timings in the manual are: "compatible to PAL and NTSC".

regards

Wolfgang

Hi..Mr.Wolfgang..,
                      thank for your response..i have some doubt ..
                  1)what is the use of SDRAM bandwidth here.i am using SDRAM IN 60 MHZ FREQUENCY..
                  2) i am not going for video ..i just want to display the character, numbers and rectangle box..no need motion display..i thought if i need motion then only i have to concentrate on frames per second..mean (PAL/NTSC).
                  3)MY problem is i am not getting exact clock for TFT Panel,horizontal/vertical front porch and back porch value and pulse width..if u have any idea About the value tell me..

                                                                                                                                                     Thanks and Regards ,
                                                                                                                                                            VIJAYAN

if you look at section 11.4.3
do you see any mention of LVDS interface panel support?
http://lmgtfy.com/?q=lvds

the controller has a parallel bit interface, the panel has a LVDS interface. They do not work together.
so even if you get the front/back porch working, you will not be able to send data without some expensive serial/de-serial hardware.
you also need 2.4M byte external RAM for the image frame buffer.

so pick a better panel and get some external RAM

Hi..rocketdawg,
first thanks for your response..i am new for TFT lcd.so try to help me.

1)my TFT pannel WY101ML308HS18A is a Active matrix TFT panels and it can support up to 24-bit bus.my controller is lpc1788 so it has inbuild lcd controller and it can support .

2)the controller has a parallel bit interface, the panel has a LVDS interface.But here i am using a SN75LVDS83B to convert the 24 bit parallel data into LVDS format..and sending to TFT lcd pannel via 4 bus.

[img=712x510]file:///H:/LVDS_serializer_example.png[/img]

3)i am using 256Mbit (16M x16) Synchronous DRAM for storing image buffer.i thought its enough..and SDRAM WORKING GOOD .i cheked it.

4)i thought the problem is in lcd initialization.i need the exact value for hsync and vsync front porch,back porch ,horizontal and vertical pulse width value.

i attached my lcd initialization code .if you got any idea tell me..thanks advance.

Hi,
I started driving 10.1 Inch LCD.
I used LPC1788 and converted parallel RGB data to LVDS by SN75LVDS83B, but I didn't succeed to light up the display.
Is there any schematic and code to help me?
