Function Description
The FT81x is a single chip, embedded video controller with the following function blocks:

Quad SPI Host Interface

System Clock

Graphics Engine

Parallel RGB video interface

Audio Engine

Touch-screen support and interface

Power Management
The functions for each block are briefly described in the following subsections.
4.1 Quad SPI Host Interface
The FT81x uses a quad serial parallel interface (QSPI) to communicate with host microcontrollers and
microprocessors.
4.1.1 QSPI Interface
The QSPI slave interface operates up to 30MHz. Only SPI mode 0 is supported. Refer to section 6.4.2 for
detailed timing specification. The QSPI can be configured as a SPI slave in SINGLE, DUAL or QUAD
channel modes.
By default the SPI slave operates in the SINGLE channel mode with MOSI as input from the master and
MISO as output to the master. DUAL and QUAD channel modes can be configured through the SPI slave
itself. To change the channel modes, write to register REG_SPI_WIDTH. The table below depicts the
setting.

With DUAL/QUAD channel modes, the SPI data ports are now unidirectional. In these modes, each SPI
transaction (signified by CS_N going active low) will begin with the data ports set as inputs.
Hence, for writing to the FT81x, the protocol will operate as in FT800, with “WR-Command/Addr2, Addr1,
Addr0, DataX, DataY, DataZ …” The write operation is considered complete when CS_N goes inactive
high.
For reading from the FT81x, the protocol will still operate as in FT800, with “RD-Command/Addr2, Addr1,
Addr0, Dummy-Byte, DataX, DataY, DataZ”. However as the data ports are now unidirectional, a change
of port direction will occur before DataX is clocked out of the FT81x. Therefore it is important that the
firmware controlling the SPI master changes the SPI master data port direction to “input” after
transmitting Addr0. The FT81x will not change the port direction till it starts to clock out DataX. Hence,
the Dummy-Byte cycles will be used as a change-over period when neither the SPI master nor slave will
be driving the bus; the data paths thus must have pull-ups/pull-downs. The SPI slave from the FT81x will
reset all its data ports’ direction to input once CS_N goes inactive high (i.e. at the end of the current SPI
master transaction).
The diagram depicts the behaviour of both the SPI master and slave in the master read case.

4.1.2 Serial Data Protocol
The FT81x appears to the host MPU/MCU as a memory-mapped SPI device. The host communicates with
the FT81x using reads and writes to a large (4 megabyte) address space. Within this address space are
dedicated areas for graphics, audio and touch control. Refer to section 5 for the detailed memory map.
The host reads and writes the FT81x address space using SPI transactions. These transactions are
memory read, memory write and command write. Serial data is sent by the most significant bit first.
Each transaction starts with CS_N goes low, and ends when CS_N goes high. There’s no limit on data
length within one transaction, as long as the memory address is continuous.
4.1.3 Host Memory Read
For SPI memory read transactions, the host sends two zero bits, followed by the 22-bit address. This is
followed by a dummy byte. After the dummy byte, the FT81x responds to each host byte with read data
bytes.

4.1.4 Host Memory Write
For SPI memory write transactions, the host sends a ‘1’ bit and ‘0’ bit, followed by the 22-bit address.
This is followed by the write data.

4.1.5 Host Command
When sending a command, the host transmits a 3 byte command. Table 4-5 Host command lists all the
host command functions.
For SPI command transactions, the host sends a ‘0’ bit and ‘1’ bit, followed by the 6-bit command code.
The 2nd byte can be either 00h, or the parameter of that command. The 3rd byte is fixed at 00h.
All SPI commands except the system reset can only be executed when the SPI is in the Single channel
mode. They will be ignored when the SPI is in either Dual or Quad channel mode.
Some commands are used to configure the device and these configurations will be reset upon receiving
the SPI PWRDOWN command, except those that configure the pin state during power down. These
commands will be sticky unless reconfigured or power-on-reset (POR) occurs.

Configuration
This will set the drive strength for various
pins. For FT800/FT801 compatibility, by
default those settings are from the GPIO
registers. FT81x supports setting the drive
strength via SPI command instead.
When PINDRIVE for a pin from the SPI
command is not updated, the drive strength
will be determined by its corresponding
GPIO register bits, if they exist. If they don’t
exist, a hard coded setting is used. Please
refer to Table 4-20 for default values.
When PINDRIVE for a pin from the SPI
command is updated, it will override the
corresponding setting in the GPIO register
bits.
Byte2 determines which pin and the setting
are to be updated.

4.1.6 Interrupts
The interrupt output pin is enabled by REG_INT_EN. When REG_INT_EN is 0, INT_N is tri-state (pulled to
high by external pull-up resistor). When REG_INT_EN is 1, INT_N is driven low when any of the interrupt
flags in REG_INT_FLAGS are high, after masking with REG_INT_MASK. Writing a ‘1’ in any bit of
REG_INT_MASK will enable the corresponding interrupt. Each bit in REG_INT_FLAGS is set by a
corresponding interrupt source. REG_INT_FLAGS is readable by the host at any time, and clears when
read.
The INT_N pin is open-drain (OD) output by default. It can be configured to push-pull output by register
REG_GPIOX.

4.2.2 Phase Locked Loop
The internal PLL takes an input clock from the oscillator, and generates clocks to all internal circuits,
including the graphics engine, audio engine and touch engine.
4.2.3 Clock Enable
At power-on the FT81x enters sleep mode. The internal relaxation oscillator is selected for the PLL clock
source. The system clock will be enabled when the following step is executed:

Host sends an “ACTIVE” command
If the application chooses to use the external clock source (12MHz crystal or clock), the following steps
shall be executed:


Host sends a “CLKEXT” command
Host sends an “ACTIVE” command

4.2.4 Clock Frequency
By default the system clock is 60MHz when the input clock is 12MHz. The host is allowed to switch the
system clock to other frequencies (48MHz, 36MHz, 24MHz) by the host command “CLKSEL”. The clock
switching command shall be sent in SLEEP mode only.
When using the internal relaxation oscillator, its clock frequency is trimmed to be 12MHz at factory.
Software is allowed to change the frequency to a lower value by programming the register REG_TRIM.
Note that software shall not change the internal oscillator frequency to be higher than 12MHz.
4.3 Graphics Engine
4.3.1 Introduction
The graphics engine executes the display list once for every horizontal line. It executes the primitive
objects in the display list and constructs the display line buffer. The horizontal pixel content in the line
buffer is updated if the object is visible at the horizontal line.
Main features of the graphics engine are:







The primitive objects supported by the graphics processor are: lines, points, rectangles, bitmaps
(comprehensive set of formats), text display, plotting bar graph, edge strips, and line strips, etc.
Operations such as stencil test, alpha blending and masking are useful for creating a rich set of
effects such as shadows, transitions, reveals, fades and wipes.
Anti-aliasing of the primitive objects (except bitmaps) gives a smoothing effect to the viewer.
Bitmap transformations enable operations such as translate, scale and rotate.
Display pixels are plotted with 1/16th pixel precision.
Four levels of graphics states
Tag buffer detection
The graphics engine also supports customized built-in widgets and functionalities such as jpeg decode,
screen saver, calibration etc. The graphics engine interprets commands from the MPU host via a 4 Kbyte
FIFO in the FT81x memory at RAM_CMD. The MPU/MCU writes commands into the FIFO, and the graphics
engine reads and executes the commands. The MPU/MCU updates the register REG_CMD_WRITE to
indicate that there are new commands in the FIFO, and the graphics engine updates REG_CMD_READ
after commands have been executed.
Main features supported are:






Drawing of widgets such as buttons, clock, keys, gauges, text displays, progress bars, sliders,
toggle switches, dials, gradients, etc.
JPEG and motion-JPEG decode
Inflate functionality (zlib inflate is supported)

milliseconds)
In-built animated functionalities such as displaying logo, calibration, spinner, screen saver and
sketch

4.3.2 ROM and RAM Fonts
The FT81x has built in ROM character bitmaps as font metrics. The graphics engine can use these metrics
when drawing text fonts. There are a total of 19 ROM fonts, numbered with font handle 16-34. The user
can define and load customized font metrics into RAM_G, which can be used by display command with
handle 0-15.
Each font metric block has a 148 byte font table which defines the parameters of the font and the pointer
of font image. The font table format is shown in Table 4-7.

4.4 Parallel RGB Interface
The RGB parallel interface consists of 23 or 29 signals - DISP, PCLK, VSYNC, HSYNC, DE, 6 or 8 signals
each for R, G and B.
A set of RGB registers configure the LCD operation and timing parameters.
REG_PCLK is the PCLK divisor. The default value is 0, which means the PCLK output is disabled. When
REG_PCLK is none 0 (1-1023), the PCLK frequency can be calculated as:
PCLK frequency = System Clock frequency / REG_PCLK
The FT81x system clock frequency is programmable. Some of the possible PCLK frequencies that FT81x
supports are listed in Table 4-11.

REG_PCLK_POL defines the clock polarity, with 0 for positive active clock edge, and 1 for negative clock
edge.
REG_CSPREAD controls the transition of RGB signals with respect to the PCLK active clock edge. When
REG_CSPREAD=0, R[7:0], G[7:0] and B[7:0] signals change following the active edge of PCLK. When
REG_CSPREAD=1, R[7:0] changes a PCLK clock early and B[7:0] a PCLK clock later, which helps reduce
the switching noise.
REG_DITHER enables colour dither. This option improves the half-tone appearance on displays.
Internally, the graphics engine computes the colour values at an 8 bit precision; however, the LCD colour
at a lower precision is sufficient. The FT810/FT811 output is only 6 bits per colour in 6:6:6 formats and a
2X2 dither matrix allow the truncated bits to contribute to the final colour values.
REG_OUTBITS gives the bit width of each colour channel, the default is 6/6/6(for FT810/FT811) or
8/8/8(for FT812/FT813) bits for each R/G/B colour. A lower value means fewer bits are output for each
channel allowing dithering on lower precision LCD displays.
REG_SWIZZLE controls the arrangement of the output colour pins, to help the PCB route different LCD
panel arrangements. Bit 0 of the register causes the order of bits in each colour channel to be reversed.
Bits 1-3 control the RGB order. Setting Bit 1 causes R and B channels to be swapped. Setting Bit 3 allows
rotation to be enabled. If Bit 3 is set, then (R,G,B) is rotated right if bit 2 is one, or left if bit 2 is zero.

4.5.1 Backlight Control Pin
The backlight dimming control pin (BACKLIGHT) is a pulse width modulated (PWM) signal controlled by
two registers: REG_PWM_HZ and REG_PWM_DUTY. REG_PWM_HZ specifies the PWM output frequency,
the range is 250-10000 Hz. REG_PWM_DUTY specifies the duty cycle; the range is 0-128. A value of 0
means that the PWM is completely off and 128 means completely on.
The BACKLIGHT pin will output low when the DISP pin is not enabled (i.e. logic 0).
4.5.2 DISP Control Pin
The DISP pin is a general purpose output that can be used to enable, or reset the LCD display panel. The
pin is controlled by writing to Bit 7 of the REG_GPIO register, or bit 15 of REG_GPIOX.
4.5.3 General Purpose IO pins
Depending on the package, the FT81x can be configured to use up to 4 GPIO pins. These GPIO pins are
controlled by the REG_GPIOX_DIR and REG_GPIOX registers. Alternatively the GPIO0 and GPIO1 pins
can also be controlled by REG_GPIO_DIR and REG_GPIO to maintain backward compatibility with the
FT800/FT801.
When the QSPI is enabled in Quad mode, GPIO0/IO2 and GPIO1/IO3 pins are used as data lines of the
QSPI.
4.5.4 Pins Drive Current Control
The output drive current of output pins can be changed as per the following table by writing to bit[6:2] of
REG_GPIO register or bit[14:10] of REG_GPIOX register. Alternatively, use the SPI command PINDRIVE
to change the individual pin drive strength.

4.6 Audio Engine
FT81x provides mono audio output through a PWM output pin, AUDIO_L. It outputs two audio sources,
the sound synthesizer and audio file playback.
4.6.1 Sound Synthesizer
A sound processor, AUDIO ENGINE, generates the sound effects from a small ROM library of waves table.
To play a sound effect listed in Table 4.3, load the REG_SOUND register with a code value and write 1 to
the REG_PLAY register. The REG_PLAY register reads 1 while the effect is playing and returns a ‘0’ when
the effect ends. Some sound effects play continuously until interrupted or instructed to play the next
sound effect. To interrupt an effect, write a new value to REG_SOUND and REG_PLAY registers; e.g. write
0 (Silence) to REG_SOUND and 1 to PEG_PLAY to stop the sound effect.
The sound volume is controlled by register REG_VOL_SOUND. The 16-bit REG_SOUND register takes an
8-bit sound in the low byte. For some sounds, marked "pitch adjust" in the table below, the high 8 bits
contain a MIDI note value. For these sounds, a note value of zero indicates middle C. For other sounds
the high byte of REG_SOUND is ignored.

4.6.2 Audio Playback
The FT81x can play back recorded sound through its audio output. To do this, load the original sound
data into the FT81x’s RAM, and set registers to start the playback.
The registers controlling audio playback are:
REG_PLAYBACK_START:
the start address of the audio data
REG_PLAYBACK_LENGTH:
the length of the audio data, in bytes
REG_PLAYBACK_FREQ:
the playback sampling frequency, in Hz
REG_PLAYBACK_FORMAT:
the playback format, one of LINEAR SAMPLES, uLAW
SAMPLES, or ADPCM SAMPLES
REG_PLAYBACK_LOOP:
if zero, the sample is played once. If one, the sample is repeated
indefinitely
REG_PLAYBACK_PLAY:
a write to this location triggers the start of audio playback,
regardless of writing ‘0’ or ‘1’. Read back ‘1’ when playback
is ongoing, and ‘0’ when playback finishes
REG_VOL_PB:
playback volume, 0-255
The mono audio formats supported are 8-bits PCM, 8-bits uLAW and 4-bits IMA-ADPCM.
For
ADPCM_SAMPLES, each sample is 4 bits, so two samples are packed per byte, the first sample is in bits
0-3 and the second is in bits 4-7.
The current audio playback read pointer can be queried by reading the REG_PLAYBACK_READPTR. Using
a large sample buffer, looping, and this read pointer, the host MPU/MCU can supply a continuous stream
of audio.
4.7 Touch-Screen Engine
The FT81x touch-screen engine supports both resistive and capacitive touch panels. FT810 and FT812
support resistive touch, while FT811 and FT813 support capacitive touch.
4.7.1 Resistive Touch Control
The resistive touch-screen consists of a touch screen engine, ADC, Axis-switches, and ADC input
multiplexer. The touch screen engine reads commands from the memory map register and generates the
required control signals to the axis-switches and inputs mux and ADC. The ADC data are acquired,
processed and updated in the respective register for the MPU/MCU to read.

The Touch Screen Engine captures the raw X and Y coordinate and writes to register REG_TOUCH_RAW
XY. The range of these values is 0-1023. If the touch screen is not being pressed, both registers read
65535 (FFFFh).
These touch values are transformed into screen coordinates using the matrix in registers
REG_TOUCH_TRANSFORM_A-F.
The

coordinates
are
available
in
register
REG_TOUCH_SCREEN_XY. If the touch screen is not being pressed, both registers read -32768 (8000h).
The values for REG TOUCH TRANSFORM A-F may be computed using an on-screen calibration process.
If the screen is being touched, the screen coordinates are looked up in the screen's tag buffer, delivering
a final 8-bit tag value, in REG TOUCH TAG. Because the tag lookup takes a full frame, and touch
coordinates change continuously, the original (x; y) used for the tag lookup is also available in
REG_TOUCH_TAG_XY.
Screen touch pressure is available in REG_TOUCH_RZ. The value is relative to the resistance of the touch
contact, a lower value indicates more pressure. The register defaults to 32767 when touch is not
detected. The REG_TOUCH_THRESHOLD can be set to accept a touch only when the force threshold is
exceeded.
4.7.2 Capacitive Touch Control
The Capacitive Touch Screen Engine (CTSE) of the FT81x communicates with the external capacitive
touch panel module (CTPM) through an I2C interface. The CTPM will assert its interrupt line when there is
a touch detected. Upon detecting CTP_INT_N line active, the FT81x will read the touch data through I2C.
Up to 5 touches can be reported and stored in FT81x registers.
For a supported CTPM list please consult FTDI website.

The FT81x CTSE supports compatibility mode and extended mode. By default the CTSE runs in
compatibility mode where the touch system provides an interface very similar to the resistive touch
engine. In this mode the same application code can run on FT810/FT812 and FT811/FT813 without
alteration. In extended mode, the touch register meanings are modified, and a second set of registers are
exposed. These allow multi-touch detection (up to 5 touches).
4.7.3 Compatibility mode
The CTSE reads the X and Y coordinates from the CTPM and writes to register REG_CTOUCH_RAW_XY. If
the touch screen is not being pressed, both registers read 65535 (FFFFh).
These touch values are transformed into screen coordinates using the matrix in

process.
If the screen is being touched, the screen coordinates are looked up in the screen's tag buffer, delivering
a final 8-bit tag value, in REG_TOUCH_TAG. Because the tag lookup takes a full frame, and touch
coordinates change continuously, the original (x; y) used for the tag lookup is also available in
REG_TOUCH_TAG_XY.
4.7.4 Extended mode
Setting REG_CTOUCH_EXTENDED to 1b’0 enables extended mode. In extended mode a new set of
readout registers are available, allowing gestures and up to five touches to be read. There are two
classes of registers: control registers and status registers. Control registers are written by the MCU.
Status registers can be read out by the MCU and the FT81x’s hardware tag system.

The five touch coordinates are packed in REG_CTOUCH_TOUCH0_XY, REG_CTOUCH_TOUCH1_XY,
REG_CTOUCH_TOUCH2_XY, REG_CTOUCH_TOUCH3_XY, REG_CTOUCH4_X and REG_CTOUCH4_Y.
Coordinates stored in these registers are signed 16-bit values, so have range -32768 to 32767. The notouch condition is indicated by x=y= -32768. These coordinates are already transformed into screen
coordinates based on the raw data read from the CTPM, using the matrix in registers
REG_CTOUCH_TRANSFORM_A-F. To obtain raw (x,y) coordinates read from CTPM, the user sets the
REG_CTOUCH_TRANSFORM_A-F registers to the identity matrix.
The FT81x tag mechanism is implemented by hardware, where up to 5 tags can be looked up.
4.7.5 Short-circuit protection
For resistive touch it is useful to protect the chip from permanent damage due to potential short-circuits
on the 4 XY lines. When a short circuit on the touch screen happens, the FT81x can detect it and stop the
touch detection operation, leaving the 4 XY pins in the high impedance state.
The short-circuit protection can be enabled/disabled by the REG_TOUCH_CONFIG.
4.7.6 Capacitive touch configuration
On capacitive touch system some users may need to adjust the CTPM default values, such as the
registers affecting touch sensitivity. To do this the following sequence shall be executed once after chip
reset:
-
Hold the touch engine in reset (set REG_CPURESET = 2)
Write the CTPM configure register address and value to FT81x designated memory location
Up to 10 register address/value can be added
Release the touch engine reset (set REG_CPURESET = 0)
The CTPM can be enabled in low power state when the touch function is not required by the application.
Setting the low-power bit in REG_TOUCH_CONFIG will enable the low power mode of the CTPM. When
the low-power bit is cleared, the FT81x touch engine will send a reset to the CTPM, thus re-enabling the
touch detection function.
4.7.7 Touch detection in none-ACTIVE state
When FT81x is in none-ACTIVE state, a touch event can still be detected and reported to the host
through the INT_N pin. In other words, a touch event can wake-up the host if needed.
For resistive touch, the INT_N pin will be asserted low when the screen is touched, regardless of the
setting of the interrupt registers. This will happen when the FT81x is in STANDBY or SLEEP state, but not
in POWERDOWN state.
For capacitive touch, the INT_N pin will follow CTP_INT_N pin when the FT81x is in STANDBY, SLEEP or
POWERDOWN state.
4.8 Power Management
4.8.1 Power supply
The FT81x may be operated with a single supply of 3.3V applied to VCC and VCCIO pins. For operation
with a host MPU/MCU at a lower supply, connect the VCCIO1 to the MPU IO supply to match the interface
voltage. For operation with LCD/touch panels at lower voltages, connect the VCCIO2 to the LCD/touch IO
supply.

4.8.2 Internal Regulator and POR
The internal regulator provides power to the core circuit. A 47kΩ resistor is recommended to pull the
PD_N pin up to VCCIO1, together with a 100nF capacitor to ground in order to delay the internal
regulator powering up after the VCC and VCCIO are stable.
The internal regulator requires a compensation capacitor to be stable. A typical design requires a 4.7uF
capacitor between the VOUT1V2 and GND pins. Do not connect any other load to the VOUT1V2 pin.
The internal regulator will generate a Power-On-Reset (POR) pulse when the output voltage rises above
the POR threshold. The POR will reset all the core digital circuits.
It is possible to use PD_N pin as an asynchronous hardware reset input. Drive PD_N low for at least 5ms
and then drive it high will reset the FT81x chip.

4.8.3 Power Modes
When the supply to VCCIO and VCC is applied, the internal regulator is powered by VCC. An internal POR
pulse will be generated during the regulator power up until it is stable. After the initial power up, the
FT81x will stay in the SLEEP state. When needed, the host can set the FT81x to the ACTIVE state by
performing a SPI ACTIVE command. The graphics engine, the audio engine and the touch engine are only
functional in the ACTIVE state. To save power the host can send a command to put the FT81x into any of
the low power modes: STANDBY, SLEEP and POWERDOWN. In addition, the host is allowed to put the
FT81x in POWERDOWN mode by driving the PD_N pin to low, regardless of what state it is currently in.
Refer to Figure 4-11 for the power state transitions.

4.8.3.1 ACTIVE state
In ACTIVE state, the FT81x is in normal operation. The clock oscillator and PLL are functioning. The
system clock applied to the FT81x core engines is enabled.
4.8.3.2 STANDBY state
In STANDBY state, the clock oscillator and PLL remain functioning; the system clock applied to the FT81x
core engines is disabled. All register contents are retained.
4.8.3.3 SLEEP state
In SLEEP state, the clock oscillator, PLL and system clock applied to the FT81x core engines are disabled.
All register contents are retained.
4.8.3.4 POWERDOWN state
In POWERDOWN state, the clock oscillator, the PLL and the system clock applied to the FT81x core is
disabled. The core engines are powered down while the SPI interface for host commands remains
functional. All register contents are lost and reset to default when the chip is next switched on. The
internal regulator remains on.

4.8.3.5 Wake up to ACTIVE from other power states
When in the POWER DOWN state, if the device enters this state via an SPI command, then only the SPI
ACTIVE command will bring the device back to the ACTIVE state, provided PD_N pin is also high.
However, if PD_N is used instead, then making PD_N high followed by a SPI ACTIVE command will wake
up the device. Upon exiting this state, the device will perform a global reset, and will go through the
same power up sequence. All settings from SPI commands will be reset except those that pertain to pin
states during power down. The clock enable sequence mentioned in section 4.2.3 shall be executed to
properly select and enable the system clock.
From the SLEEP state, the host MPU sends an SPI ACTIVE command to wake the FT81x into the ACTIVE
state. The host needs to wait for at least 20ms before accessing any registers or commands. This is to
guarantee the clock oscillator and PLL are up and stable.
From the STANDBY state, the host MPU sends SPI ACTIVE command to wake the FT81x into the ACTIVE
state. The host can immediately access any register or command.
4.8.4 Reset and boot-up sequence
There are a few hardware and software reset events which can be triggered to reset the FT81x.
Hardware reset events:


Power-on-Reset(POR)
Toggle the PD_N pin
Software reset events:



SPI command RST_PULSE
SPI command to switch between the internal clock and the external clock
SPI command to enter POWERDOWN then wakeup
After reset the FT81x will be in the SLEEP state. Upon receiving an SPI ACTIVE command, the internal
oscillator and PLL will start up. Once the clock is stable, the chip will check and repair its internal RAM,
running the configuration and release the clock to the system. The chip will exit the reset and boot-up
state and enter into normal operations. The boot-up may take up to 300ms to complete.
4.8.5 Pin Status at Different Power States
The FT81x pin status depends on the power state of the chip. See the following table for more details. At
the power transition from ACTIVE to STANDBY or ACTIVE to SLEEP, all pins retain their previous status.
The software needs to set AUDIO_L, BACKLIGHT to a known state before issuing power transition
commands.
The pin status in the power down state can be changed by SPI command PIN_PD_STATE.
