dear Artur,

the 320_R137_TC1.fw is 5bit waveform,  It  can't work .

the older  waveform SCM060.fw can work which is 4bit format.

Is the imx6sl platform can't support my e-ink display screen. or the sourcecode need to Modify.

thanks & bestregards,

After further studying the case, I've found the following. As per the i.MX6SoloLite Reference Manual document, its EPD Controller hardware itself supports the 5-bit pixel format. However, the current framebuffer driver seems to be supporting only 4-bit format. So, only 4-bit EP displays can be supported in Linux at present.

No, the BSPs support only the .fw format.

Hi ,

when i decompression 320_G087_AB0203_ED060XG3T1_TC-NG.fw.zip, I got a file 320_G087_AB0203_ED060XG3T1_TC-NG.fw but the file size is 4.75MB. Is it right? because original file size is 234KB.

[art]

Yes, this is right. The reason is that the .wbf file contains the symbolic description of a EPD control waveforms, whereas the .fw file contains the representation of a waveforms in binary format, that is much more larger than the symbolic one.
