General Description
The Stellaris® Intelligent Display Modules (MDL-IDM and MDL-IDM28) offer a complete
graphical touch-screen user interface solution for control, automation, and instrumentation
applications. The compact design is based on a Stellaris® LM3S6918 microcontroller; a
highly integrated controller incorporating a 32-bit ARM® Cortex™-M3 core. A key feature of
the MDL-IDM is the Power over Ethernet (PoE) power system that facilitates both network
and power connections with a single RJ45 cable. The MDL-IDM28 module offers the same
features as the standard MDL-IDM, but without the Power Over Ethernet capability.

10/100 Ethernet connects the MDL-IDM and MDL-IDM28 to an array of networks—from
dedicated industrial networks to the internet. The example application includes source code
for an embedded web server.
Development of software for the IDM modules is simplified by using the comprehensive
Stellaris graphics library and ARM development tools from our tools partners. First-time
users should purchase the RDK-IDM Reference Design Kit which includes the touch panel
module, a documentation CD, power supply, and cables.
Refer to the RDK-IDM Quickstart Guide and RDK-IDM User’s Manual for complete
technical details on using and customizing the Intelligent Display Module.

Power over Ethernet (PoE)
The MDL-IDM identifies itself as a Class 1 Powered Device. The IEEE 802.af specification
defines Class 1 devices as those that draw between 0.44 W and 3.84 W.
If a PoE-equipped network switch or hub is not available, the MDL-IDM may be powered
either from a 24 Vdc power source or from a 5 Vdc power source. In all cases, the power
supply must be regulated within the electrical limits listed in the specification table.
When powered using PoE or a 24 V supply, the MDL-IDM is able to supply 5 V power to
external devices such as sensors or signal conditioning circuits.
Wiring
In many applications, only a single RJ45 cable is required for MDL-IDM and MDL-IDM28
operation. Figure 3 shows all possible electrical connections, including RS232, analog
inputs, and relay contacts. The actual functionality of the peripheral connections is
determined by the application software.

Software Development
The MDL-IDM and MDL-IDM28 modules ship with a factory-programmed example
application. This application must be replaced with a program specific to the end product.
Development requires the use of a compiler capable of generating code for an
ARM® Cortex™-M3 processor. Visit www.luminarymicro.com to download evaluation
versions of suitable development tools.

The Stellaris Graphics Library accelerates software development by providing a range of
display-related extensions to the standard Peripheral Driver Library. The Graphics Library
includes widgets, low-level drawing primitives, and display drivers.
Graphics Library widgets encapsulate the ability to render a GUI element, detect if a
touchscreen press occurred within its bounds, and react to presses. Widgets may be used
in a hierarchical manner to provide groups of associated widgets, such as radio buttons.
Examples of widgets include check boxes, buttons, and images.
Drawing primitives are elementary geometric items. The Graphics Library includes
primitives such as lines, circles, filled circles, rectangles, and fonts. A selection of pre-built
fonts is included and additional user fonts may be added to the library.
The display driver provides low-level code for initializing the display controller and a method
for setting pixels. Graphics Library includes a display driver optimized for the RDK-IDM
LCD panel and therefore, users do not need low-level knowledge of LCD-driver operation.
Refer to the Stellaris Graphics Library Reference Manual for full details.
Programming the MDL-IDM and MDL-IDM28
Once an application has been compiled and linked to a binary file, it can be loaded into the
MDL-IDM and MDL-IDM28 by several different methods:
„ Over Ethernet using the Stellaris Ethernet boot loader
„ Over the RS232 serial port using the Stellaris serial boot loader
„ Using the JTAG or SWD port and an In-circuit Debug Interface (ICDI)
All three methods are supported by the LMFlash utility included on the software and
documentation CD and available from the www.luminarymicro.com web site.
The IDM Reference Design Kit includes an adaptor to convert the fine-pitch, 10-way debug
header to the common 20-pin ARM debug header.
