@par Example Description
This example describes how to configure the LTDC peripheral to display two Layers
at the same time.
The goal of this example is to explain how to blend two layers and how to display
an image with L8 (8bits per pixels indexed) as pixel format.
At the beginning of the main program the HAL_Init() function is called to reset
all the peripherals, initialize the Flash interface and the systick.
Then the SystemClock_Config() function is used to configure the system
clock (SYSCLK) to run at 180 MHz.
After LCD initialization, the LCD layer 1 and Layer 2 are configured as following :
- Layer 1 is configured to display an image loaded from flash memory with direct
color (RGB565) as pixel format and 320x240 size.
- Layer 2 is configured to display an image loaded from flash memory with indirect
color (L8) as pixel format and 320x240 size.
To display an image with an indirect color as pixel format a color lookup table (CLUT)
is loaded, then every byte from image data (L8_320x240) is considered as
a position in color lookup table (CLUT).(see example below)
@note :
The C files of the images used in this example are generated with
STemWin bitmap converter released with this package.
\Middlewares\ST\STemWin\Software\BmpCvtST.exe
Use the bitmap files under resources repository
The blending is always active and the two layers can be blended following
the configured blending factors and the constant alpha.
In this example the constant alpha for layer 2 is decreased to see the layer 1
in the intersection zone.
Example :
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
|Image data | position CLUT(RGB Value) | Alpha | Output (ARGB value)|
|-------------|------------------------------|----------|------------------- |
|00 10 FF 25 | 0 -----> 0xFD10EA | 0xFF | 0xFFFD10EA |
| | . | | 0xFF1548AD |
| | . | | 0xFFAE6547 |
| | . | | 0xFFDA14EA |
| | . | | . |
| | 16 -----> 0x1548AD | | . |
| | . | | . |
| | . | | . |
| | 37 -----> 0xDA14EA | | . |
| | . | | |
| | . | | |
| | 255 -----> 0xAE6547 | | |
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The images change unlike their positions on LCD in an infinite loop.
STM32 Eval board's LED can be used to monitor the transfer status:
- LED3 is ON when there is an error in Init process.
@note Care must be taken when using HAL_Delay(), this function provides accurate delay (in milliseconds)
based on variable incremented in SysTick ISR. This implies that if HAL_Delay() is called from
a peripheral ISR process, then the SysTick interrupt must have higher priority (numerically lower)
than the peripheral interrupt. Otherwise the caller ISR process will be blocked.
To change the SysTick interrupt priority you have to use HAL_NVIC_SetPriority() function.
@note The application needs to ensure that the SysTick time base is always set to 1 millisecond
to have correct HAL operation.

@par Hardware and Software environment
- This example runs on STM32F429xx/STM32F439xx devices.
- This example has been tested with STMicroelectronics STM324x9I-EVAL RevB
evaluation boards and can be easily tailored to any other supported device
and development board.
@par How to use it ?
In order to make the program work, you must do the following :
- Open your preferred toolchain
- Rebuild all files and load your image into target memory
- Run the example
