Using a Bitsy Board and the above mentioned display with Dev System drivers (for LQ64D343 Display shipped with system), board changes and start up files were changed to function with LQ057Q3DC02.
I'm currently getting no more than 216 colors, how can I get 256 color pallette (8 bit), stated for the Bitsy. Also is it possible to run the Bitsy at 16 bit color or higher for 320x240 display? What would I need and is it available? |

Thanks for your question. I wonder if the 216 colors are a function of the bitmap you're testing with? Take a look at the CE eVC help file topic, "BITMAPINFO structure" (under the MFC structures section) for information about Windows device-independent bitmaps (DIBs). It describes DIB structures with 216, 224, 232 and 256 colors. Let us know what you think. If you still have questions, let us know how you're doing your testing and what your needs are.
To switch to 16bpp color, take a look at this topic. The StrongARM display driver is well-suited to drive QVGA displays at 16bpp.

In the link page refering to 16 bit color configuration, the last section mentions a different cable. Is this required to properly set up the screen, and if yes what is the new pinout such that I can modify the cable. Keep in mind I am using a Sharp LQ57Q3DC02 320x240 panel. |

Hi Dan: I've emailed you cable drawing 610110-3066A for 16bpp color on your display. Note that you can test 16bpp mode before going to the trouble of making a cable, though the colors won't be accurate till you've got the right cable.
