1 Introduction
This design example demonstrates a simple music synthesizer using touch, graphic display and
audio playback on a FT800 platform.
In the Music application, different musical instrument sounds are selected from a touch menu. A
graphical touch keyboard generates tones. The audio is streamed to a speaker using the audio
engine.
Loading of the necessary elements to show and manipulate the graphics elements is as follows:
Draw graphics primitives directly through a display list
Incorporate display list commands to access sound and touch events through reads and
writes of the FT800 registers
Store the display list in DL_RAM
1.1 Overview
The document will provide information on drawing graphics elements through primitives, tagging
of audio and touch capabilities and the structure of display lists. In addition, this application note
outlines the general steps of the system design flow, display list creation and integrating the
display list with the system host computer/microcontroller.
1.2 Scope
This document can be used as a guide by designers to develop GUI applications by using FT800
with any MCU via SPI or I2C. Note that detailed documentation is available on

Display Requirements
This section describes some of the key components of the design.
2.1 Display and Menu
This application demonstrates the usage of built-in widgets such as buttons, keys, and slider. The
application draws piano keys on the screen with white and black buttons, a slider to control the
volume of the sound, buttons to play different chords and buttons to choose the type of musical
instrument to be played.
The application constantly monitors the display for touch input on the piano keys, instrument type,
volume control and chord select keys (sound frequency).
2.2 Opening Menu
App Music opens with a generic introduction screen that prompts the user to press dots on the
touchscreen for calibration. After the FTDI logo appears, pressing the start arrow starts App Music.

3 Design Flow
Every EVE design follows the same basic principles as highlighted in Figure 3.1.
Select and configure your host port for controlling the FT800 then wake the device before
configuring the display. The creative part then revolves around the generation of the display list,
“** APPLICATION DATA **” in the figure below. There will be two lists. The active list and the
updated/next list are continually swapped to render the display. Note, header files map the
pseudo code of the design file of the display list to the FT800 instruction set, which is sent as the
data of the SPI (or I²C) packet (typically <1KB). As a result, with EVE's object oriented approach,
the FT800 is operating as an SPI peripheral while providing full display, audio, and touch
capabilities.

4 Description of the Functional Blocks
4.1 System Initilization
Configuration of the SPI master port is unique to each controller – different registers etc, but all
will require data to be sent Most Significant Bit (MSB) first with a little endian format.
The function labelled Ft_BootupConfig is generic to all applications and will start by toggling the
FT800 PD# pin to perform a power cycle.
/* Do a power cycle for safer side */
Ft_Gpu_Hal_Powercycle(phost,FT_TRUE);
Ft_Gpu_Hal_Rd16(phost,RAM_G);
/* Set the clk to external clock */
Ft_Gpu_HostCommand(phost,FT_GPU_EXTERNAL_OSC);
Ft_Gpu_Hal_Sleep(10);
/* Switch PLL output to 48MHz */
Ft_Gpu_HostCommand(phost,FT_GPU_PLL_48M);
Ft_Gpu_Hal_Sleep(10);
/* Do a core reset for safer side */
Ft_Gpu_HostCommand(phost,FT_GPU_CORE_RESET);
/* Access address 0 to wake up the FT800 */
Ft_Gpu_HostCommand(phost,FT_GPU_ACTIVE_M);
The internal PLL is then given a prompt by setting the clock register and PLL to 48 MHz.
Note 36MHz is possible but will have a knock on effect for the display timing parameters.
A software reset of the core is performed followed by a dummy read to address 0 to complete the
wake up sequence.
The FT800 GPIO lines are also controlled by writing to registers:
Ft_Gpu_Hal_Wr8(phost, REG_GPIO_DIR,0x80 | Ft_Gpu_Hal_Rd8(phost,REG_GPIO_DIR));
Ft_Gpu_Hal_Wr8(phost, REG_GPIO,0x080 | Ft_Gpu_Hal_Rd8(phost,REG_GPIO));
And these allow the display to be enabled.
To confirm the FT800 is awake and ready to start accepting display list information the identity
register is read in a loop until it reports back 0x7C. It will always be 0x7C if everything is awake
and functioning correctly.
ft_uint8_t chipid;
//Read Register ID to check if FT800 is ready.
chipid = Ft_Gpu_Hal_Rd8(phost, REG_ID);
while(chipid != 0x7C)
chipid = Ft_Gpu_Hal_Rd8(phost, REG_ID);

Version 1.1
Document Reference No.: FT_000911 Clearance No.: FTDI# 361
Once the FT800 is awake the display may be configured through 13 register writes according to its
resolution. Resolution and timing data should be available in the display datasheet.
Ft_Gpu_Hal_Wr16(phost, REG_HCYCLE, FT_DispHCycle);
Ft_Gpu_Hal_Wr16(phost, REG_HOFFSET, FT_DispHOffset);
Ft_Gpu_Hal_Wr16(phost, REG_HSYNC0, FT_DispHSync0);
Ft_Gpu_Hal_Wr16(phost, REG_HSYNC1, FT_DispHSync1);
Ft_Gpu_Hal_Wr16(phost, REG_VCYCLE, FT_DispVCycle);
Ft_Gpu_Hal_Wr16(phost, REG_VOFFSET, FT_DispVOffset);
Ft_Gpu_Hal_Wr16(phost, REG_VSYNC0, FT_DispVSync0);
Ft_Gpu_Hal_Wr16(phost, REG_VSYNC1, FT_DispVSync1);
Ft_Gpu_Hal_Wr8(phost, REG_SWIZZLE, FT_DispSwizzle);
Ft_Gpu_Hal_Wr8(phost, REG_PCLK_POL, FT_DispPCLKPol);
Ft_Gpu_Hal_Wr8(phost, REG_PCLK,FT_DispPCLK);//after this display is visible on the LCD
Ft_Gpu_Hal_Wr16(phost, REG_HSIZE, FT_DispWidth);
Ft_Gpu_Hal_Wr16(phost, REG_VSIZE, FT_DispHeight);
To complete the configuration the touch controller should also be calibrated
/* Touch configuration - configure the resistance value to 1200 - this value is specific to
customer requirement and derived by experiment */
Ft_Gpu_Hal_Wr16(phost, REG_TOUCH_RZTHRESH,1200);
Ft_Gpu_Hal_Wr8(phost, REG_GPIO_DIR,0xff);
Ft_Gpu_Hal_Wr8(phost, REG_GPIO,0x0ff);
An optional step is present in this code to clear the screen so that no artefacts from bootup are
displayed.
/*It is optional to clear the screen here*/
Ft_Gpu_Hal_WrMem(phost, RAM_DL,(ft_uint8_t *)FT_DLCODE_BOOTUP,sizeof(FT_DLCODE_BOOTUP));
Ft_Gpu_Hal_Wr8(phost, REG_DLSWAP,DLSWAP_FRAME);
4.2 Info ()
This is a largely informational section of code and it starts by synchronising the physical xy
coordinates of the display’s touch layer with the display’s visual layer.
A display list is started and cleared:
Ft_Gpu_CoCmd_Dlstart(phost);
Ft_App_WrCoCmd_Buffer(phost,CLEAR(1,1,1));
Ft_App_WrCoCmd_Buffer(phost,COLOR_RGB(255,255,255));
A text instruction is printed on the display followed by the call to the internal calibrate function:
Ft_Gpu_CoCmd_Text(phost,FT_DispWidth/2,FT_DispHeight/2,26,OPT_CENTERX|OPT_CENTERY,"Please tap
on a dot");
Ft_Gpu_CoCmd_Calibrate(phost,0);
The display list is then terminated and swapped to allow the changes to take effect.
Ft_App_WrCoCmd_Buffer(phost,DISPLAY());
Ft_Gpu_CoCmd_Swap(phost);
Ft_App_Flush_Co_Buffer(phost);
Ft_Gpu_Hal_WaitCmdfifo_empty(phost);
Next up in the Info() function is the FTDI logo playback:
Ft_Gpu_CoCmd_Logo(phost);
Ft_App_Flush_Co_Buffer(phost);
Ft_Gpu_Hal_WaitCmdfifo_empty(phost);

4.3 Memory Loading
The on board graphics RAM (GRAM) is used to store the JPEG data and the audio data.
The file is copied from the PC to the FT800 GRAM.
e.g. for the audio files, the function Load_afile is called with an address in the 256k Graphics RAM
to be written to.
void Load_afile(ft_uint32_t add, FILE *afile)
{
ft_uint8_t pbuff[512],temp[512],tval;
ft_uint16_t z = 0;
fread(pbuff,1,512,afile);
Ft_Gpu_Hal_WrMem(phost,add,pbuff,512L);
if ((add & 2047L) == 0)
// every 2kb update the bitmap
{
for(z=0;z<512L;z++)
{
tval = pbuff[z];
if (tval & 0x80L)
tval ^= 0x7fL;
temp[z] = tval;
}
Ft_Gpu_Hal_WrMem(phost,8192L,temp,512L);
// 11 bits of data
}

5 Working with Widgets and Sound Effects
App Music makes use of built-in widgets such as the buttons, piano keys and a slider for volume as
shown in figure 5.1 The application constantly monitors the display for touch input on the piano
keys, instrument type, volume control and chord select keys (sound frequency).
Figure 5.1 App Music Display
5.1 Volume Slider Widget
You can specify the properties of the volume slider by using the Co-Processor Track widget
(CoCmd_Track). Speaker volume is set by the REG_VOL_SOUND register. Volume level can range
from 0 to 255.
Ft_Gpu_CoCmd_Dlstart(phost);
Ft_Gpu_CoCmd_Track(phost,200,20,100,10,'V');
// where ‘V’ is the Tag of the volume slider
Ft_App_Flush_Co_Buffer(phost);
