Demo This demonstration from Boundary Devices showcases one of the newest additions to the Single Chip System Module portfolio – the SCM-i.MX 6SoloX module with V-Link bus       The SCM-i.MX 6SoloX module with V-Link bus is a new type of single chip system module. It consists of: A base SCM-i.MX 6SoloX module that integrates NXP’s i.MX 6SoloX applications processor, NXP’s PF0100 power management IC, 512 MB LPDDR2, and system passive components (de-coupling capacitors and resistors) A custom signal interface on the top of the package that enables customers to design their own PCB or substrate that can vertically attach to the top of the base SCM-i.MX 6SoloX. This custom signal interface, or V-Link bus, brings out common I/O such as UART, GPIO, SPI, I2C, SDIO etc. Customers can design top boards that add connectivity, security or sensing functions The overall footprint of the solution is 15.5mm x 15.5mm SCM V-Link technology is ideal for handheld/space-constrained applications allowing customers to integrate vertically   Features Reduce overall hardware design time and bring products to market faster Shrink PCB area over current discrete solutions. Customers can add connectivity, sensing, security in a vertical integration fashion to further save on PCB area Reduces design complexity of integrating DDR memory and power management Get started with an evaluation board and Linux OS, early access program now available   NXP Recommends NXP Single Chip Modules – www.nxp.com/scm

The project solution is a IAR Workbench project with the three main application componentes on top of FreeRTOS: eGUI low level drivers:   Part 3: Software for LED Panel emulation Or Return to Project page: LED Panel control with FlexIO Downoload Full Project:

For showing text, graphics, animations in the LED panel, I decided to use the well known eGUI graphic library, porting the code to Kinetis SDK 1.3 + FreeRTOS and develop an eGUI low level driver for the LED panel.   http://www.nxp.com/egui http://github.com/Gargy007/eGUI   This porting will have two goals:   Use the eGUI for controlling the LED panel Use a QVGA display connected to FRDM-K82 to develop and simulate applications that will work in the LED panel   FRDM-K82 + Uctronics display:     eGUI Demo running:   I also ported PEG to FRM-K82 and Uctronics display in case could be used for bigger panels, 30 x 16 is not supported by PEG, so eGUi will be used as graphic library in this project. http://www.nxp.com/peg   PEG running in this platform:     Emulating the application that  will work on the LED panel is possible using the QVGA display:   Find attached  : eGUI Porting to FRDM-K82 with KSDK 1.3 and FreeRTOS running the eGUI demo application eGUI Porting to FRDM-K82 with KSDK 1.3 and FreeRTOS running the same application we will run in the LED panel. It also includes SEGGER_SYSVIEW.   Part 2: LED control method using the FlexIO Part 4: Software for panel control Or Return to Project page: LED Panel control with FlexIO

I am using Adafruit LED stripes with 60 LED's per meter. Each LED integrates the W2812B controller. WS2812B uses a serial protocol, and you can control each LED individually. The strip is made of flexible PCB material, and comes with a weatherproof sheathing.   https://www.adafruit.com/products/1138   WS2812B is an intelligent control LED light source that the control circuit and RGB chip are integrated in a package.   The data transfer protocol use single NZR communication mode. After the pixel power-on reset, the DIN port receive data from controller, the first pixel collects initial 24bit data, then send to the internal data latch, the other data is sent to the next cascade pixel through the DO port.   LED's in cascade: My LED panel uses 16 rows x 30 columns = 480 leds.   In a first approach, in order to generate the bit stream, a timer in PWM mode could be used and generate two different duty cycles for sending a "0" logic or "1" logic. Using PWM's + DMA can unload the CPU in the generation of each single bit. FlexIO module in the Kinetis K82 can do that in a very effective mode and generate 8 channels simultaneously.   But my objective is to unload the CPU as much as possible in the bit stream generation task and find an easy method of multiplexing the 8 FlexIO outputs. In this way, we can control more LED rows and get a minimum number of interrupts and CPU intervention.   I will use the FlexIO internal data shifters to send the data bit stream. One shifter for each row. As we only have 8 shifters, I can use external multiplexor to increase the number of rows. Unloading the CPU for the LED refresh process, we can mux several rows in each shifter output. The limit of LED’s will be the refresh time of the full panel.   FlexIO block diagram:     How are the "1" and "0" generated?   Each pixel needs 24 bits of Red-Green-Blue value (RGB)   For each row, I need to send 30 x 24 bits of RGB information. But I have to encode the data in the NZR/PWM protocol. I use a lookup table to transform 24 bpp information in 24 x 3 = 72 bits per pixel.     In this way the  DMA can send 30 x 24 x 3 = 1440 bits (A full row)  in 60 transfers of 24 bits into the shifter. We get only one DMA interrupt for each row:       Multiplexer implementation:       Frame Buffer LED:   typedef union { uint32_t  rgb;     struct{       uint8_t  b;       uint8_t  r;         uint8_t  g;       uint8_t  a;     }bytes; }ledrgb;   Extended LED encoded data:   typedef struct {   uint32_t g;   uint32_t r;   uint32_t b; }ledrgb_ext;     Lookup Table:   void init_conv_matrix(void) { videoconv[0]=0x92492400; videoconv[1]=0x92492600; videoconv[2]=0x92493400; videoconv[3]=0x92493600; videoconv[4]=0x9249A400; videoconv[5]=0x9249A600; videoconv[6]=0x9249B400; videoconv[7]=0x9249B600; videoconv[8]=0x924D2400; videoconv[9]=0x924D2600; videoconv[10]=0x924D3400; ... };   Part 3: Software for LED Panel emulation Or Return to Project page: LED Panel control with FlexIO
