This guide shows how to interface the STM32F4 board with ST7789 TFT display.
The ST7789 TFT module contains a display controller with the same name: ST7789. It’s a color display that uses SPI interface protocol and requires 3, 4 or 5 control pins, it’s low cost and easy to use. This display is an IPS display, it comes in different sizes (1.3″, 1.54″ …) but all of them should have the same resolution of 240×240 pixel, this means it has 57600 pixels.
TFT: Thin-Film Transistor.
SPI: Serial Peripheral Interface.
IPS: In-Plane Switching.
In this guide, we shall cover the following:
- ST7789 connection with STM32F411 Nucleo-64
- SPI setup.
- Macros of DC and RST pin.
- Write data and command functions.
- LCD initializing.
- Support functions.
- Code.
- Demo
1. ST7789 Connection with STM32F411 Nucleo-64:
The connection as following:
| ST7789 TFT | STM32F411 Nucloe |
| 5V | Vcc |
| GND | GND |
| SCL | PA5 (SCK) |
| SDA | PA7 (MOSI) |
| RES | PA0 |
| DC | PA1 |
Hence the connection as following:
Notice that this TFT has no CS (Chip select) pin which is internally connected to ground.
2. SPI Setup:
Since this TFT has no CS pin, instead MODE0 of SPI, the module uses MODE3 of SPI:
For detailed operation and how to initialize the SPI, check this guide from here.
From the connection, PA5 and PA7 are used by SPI1 of STM32F411. Hence we start of by enabling clock access and set PA5, PA6 and PA7 to AF5, set PA0 and PA1 to GPIO output mode:
C
x
RCC->AHB1ENR|=RCC_AHB1ENR_GPIOAEN; /*SPI pins*/ GPIOA->MODER|=GPIO_MODER_MODE5_1|GPIO_MODER_MODE6_1|GPIO_MODER_MODE7_1; GPIOA->MODER&=~(GPIO_MODER_MODE5_0|GPIO_MODER_MODE6_0|GPIO_MODER_MODE7_0); GPIOA->AFR[0]|=(AF05<<GPIO_AFRL_AFSEL5_Pos)|(AF05<<GPIO_AFRL_AFSEL6_Pos)|(AF05<<GPIO_AFRL_AFSEL7_Pos); /*DC and RST pins*/ GPIOA->MODER|=GPIO_MODER_MODE0_0|GPIO_MODER_MODE1_0; GPIOA->MODER&=~(GPIO_MODER_MODE0_1|GPIO_MODER_MODE1_1);For SPI setup:
- CPOL and CPHA is set to 1.
- Divide the clock by 4 (Max of 25MHz for this module and the MCU is running at 100MHz).
- Set the mode to master.
- Software slave management.
- Enable SPI module
C
RCC->APB2ENR|=RCC_APB2ENR_SPI1EN; SPI1->CR1|=SPI_CR1_CPHA|SPI_CR1_CPOL|SPI_CR1_SSM|SPI_CR1_BR_0|SPI_CR1_SSI|SPI_CR1_MSTR|SPI_CR1_SPE;Since we need to write multiple bytes of data, we need the following function:
C
void st7789_spi_transmit(uint8_t *data,uint32_t size){ uint32_t i=0; uint8_t temp; while(i<size) { /*Wait until TXE is set*/ while(!(SPI1->SR & (SPI_SR_TXE))){} /*Write the data to the data register*/ SPI1->DR=data[i]; //*spidr = data[i]; i++; } /*Wait until TXE is set*/ while(!(SPI1->SR & (SPI_SR_TXE))){} /*Wait for BUSY flag to reset*/ while((SPI1->SR & (SPI_SR_BSY))){} /*Clear OVR flag*/ temp = SPI1->DR; temp = SPI1->SR;}3. Macros of CS and RST:
We shall use the following to control the RST(PA0) and DC(PA1) pins:
C
4. Write Command and data to the LCD:
In order to send command, we need to set the DC to low and write the data over SPI as following:
C
/** * @brief Write command to ST7789 controller * @param cmd -> command to write * @return none */static void ST7789_WriteCommand(uint8_t cmd){ LCD_DC0; st7789_spi_transmit(&cmd,1);}And we have 2 function to write the data as following:
- Small data which is 1 byte
- Data which takes an argument for how bytes to be written.
C
/** * @brief Write data to ST7789 controller * @param buff -> pointer of data buffer * @param buff_size -> size of the data buffer * @return none */static void ST7789_WriteData(uint8_t *buff, uint32_t buff_size){ LCD_DC1; st7789_spi_transmit(buff,buff_size);}/** * @brief Write data to ST7789 controller, simplify for 8bit data. * data -> data to write * @return none */static void ST7789_WriteSmallData(uint8_t data){ LCD_DC1; st7789_spi_transmit(&data,1);}4. LCD Initializing:
In order to initialize the LCD, the following commands and data shall be sent:
C
/** * @brief Initialize ST7789 controller * @param none * @return none */void ST7789_Init(void){ st7789_spi_init(); delay(25); LCD_RST0; delay(50); LCD_RST1; delay(50); ST7789_WriteCommand(ST7789_SWRESET); delay(100); ST7789_WriteCommand(ST7789_COLMOD); // Set color mode ST7789_WriteSmallData(ST7789_COLOR_MODE_16bit); ST7789_WriteCommand(0xB2); // Porch control uint8_t data[] = {0x0C, 0x0C, 0x00, 0x33, 0x33}; ST7789_WriteData(data, sizeof(data)); /* Internal LCD Voltage generator settings */ ST7789_WriteCommand(0XB7); // Gate Control ST7789_WriteSmallData(0x35); // Default value ST7789_WriteCommand(0xBB); // VCOM setting ST7789_WriteSmallData(0x20); // 0.725v (default 0.75v for 0x20) ST7789_WriteCommand(0xC0); // LCMCTRL ST7789_WriteSmallData (0x2C); // Default value ST7789_WriteCommand (0xC2); // VDV and VRH command Enable ST7789_WriteSmallData (0x01); // Default value ST7789_WriteCommand (0xC3); // VRH set ST7789_WriteSmallData (0x0b); // +-4.45v (defalut +-4.1v for 0x0B) ST7789_WriteCommand (0xC4); // VDV set ST7789_WriteSmallData (0x20); // Default value ST7789_WriteCommand (0xC6); // Frame rate control in normal mode ST7789_WriteSmallData (0x0F); // Default value (60HZ) ST7789_WriteCommand (0xD0); // Power control ST7789_WriteSmallData (0xA4); // Default value ST7789_WriteSmallData (0xA1); // Default value /**************** Division line ****************/ ST7789_WriteCommand(0xE0); { uint8_t data[] = {0xD0, 0x04, 0x0D, 0x11, 0x13, 0x2B, 0x3F, 0x54, 0x4C, 0x18, 0x0D, 0x0B, 0x1F, 0x23}; ST7789_WriteData(data, sizeof(data)); } ST7789_WriteCommand(0xE1); { uint8_t data[] = {0xD0, 0x04, 0x0C, 0x11, 0x13, 0x2C, 0x3F, 0x44, 0x51, 0x2F, 0x1F, 0x1F, 0x20, 0x23}; ST7789_WriteData(data, sizeof(data)); } ST7789_WriteCommand (ST7789_INVON); // Inversion ON ST7789_WriteCommand (ST7789_SLPOUT); // Out of sleep mode ST7789_WriteCommand (ST7789_NORON); // Normal Display on ST7789_WriteCommand (ST7789_DISPON); // Main screen turned on delay(50); ST7789_Fill_Color(BLACK); // Fill with Black.}5.

Hi,
kindly please inform me about which font editor you used for making font for this project.
thank you in advance for your help
I just used one found it on google.
There are tons of fonts to chose from.
how to convert custom font file .ttf to c array sir?
Hi,
use this tool:
https://lvgl.io/tools/fontconverter
Hi. I use 170×320 display but when I want set rotation to horizontal its not work. I tried every 4 rotation modes but work only 0 and 2 but they are the same on my display. Please Help
Hello There!
You must use ST7789_SetRotation(x);
Not all tft support rotations in all orientation.
hi. I can’t display my image. someone help?
Hi,
you need to convert the image to array in order to display the image.
Hello, I”m trying to display an image, the color is 0xDCEF (some kind of orange), but when I put in the array, it displays as light green (fill screen by this color is ok). Black is black, White is white. Blue is blue. what the problem it may be. Thanks!
Hi,
Try to fill the screen with Red, then Green then Blue and see if there is something wrong.
Hello everyone. I tried display simple logo monochrome. I use DrawImage function but always is somethink wrong. How to do this if i have bitmap logo?
You need to convert the image to array.
There are tools on the internet to convert image to array.
Hi we are using nrf52832 controller, so this code is use for in our case?
Hi,
the TFT code will work with any MCU as long as you provide the correct driver for SPI and pin control.
Hi. I Have some problem witch stm32C011. My configuration of SPI:
void SPI_Init(void){
// Włączenie zegara dla SPI1
RCC->APBENR2 |= RCC_APBENR2_SPI1EN;
// Konfiguracja SPI1
SPI1->CR1 = 0;
SPI1->CR2 = 0;
SPI1->CR1 |= SPI_CR1_BR_1;
SPI1->CR1 |= SPI_CR1_SSI;
SPI1->CR1 |= SPI_CR1_SSM;
SPI1->CR1 |= (SPI_CR1_CPOL|SPI_CR1_CPHA); //CPOL = 1, CPHA = 1
SPI1->CR1 &=~ (SPI_CR1_BIDIMODE|
SPI_CR1_RXONLY);
SPI1->CR1 &=~ SPI_CR1_LSBFIRST;
SPI1->CR1 |= SPI_CR1_MSTR; //Master mode
SPI1->CR2 &=~ (SPI_CR2_DS); //8-DATA Size
SPI1->CR2 |= SPI_CR2_TXEIE;
SPI1->CR1 |= SPI_CR1_SPE; //SPI enable
NVIC_EnableIRQ(SPI1_IRQn);
NVIC_SetPriority(SPI1_IRQn, 0);
}
It’s taking me a few days now and I still don’t see the problem.
Hi,
in C011, use CubeMX to generate the code for the drivers.
Well, okay, I use CubeMX for file generation but in general it writes on registers. The configuration seems correct for the ST7789 but it still won’t work
It should work without any issue.
Hi. I need to set rotation in initialization?
Yes.
Ok, I have problem: When i choos rotation 0 or 180 degree its fine. But rotation 90 and 270 dont work. its still like 180 degree orientation but in half display
With this specific LCD, since it is square, the rotation doesn’t matter.
