Changing the MIPI interface of the LCD screen to the QSPI interface involves a signal conversion process, which is usually not achieved by simply replacing the interface or connecting wires, but requires a special signal conversion method, device or control chip. The following are some recommended steps and precautions:
MIPI interface: MIPI (Mobile Industry Processor Interface) is the abbreviation of the mobile industry processor interface and is an open standard developed by the MIPI Alliance for mobile application processors. The MIPI interface has the characteristics of high speed, low power consumption and scalability, and is widely used in LCD screens and other fields.
QSPI interface: QSPI (Queued SPI) is an extension of the SPI interface launched by Motorola. It has a queue transmission mechanism and supports higher data transmission rates and a wider range of application scenarios. The QSPI interface is usually used to connect SPI FLASH memories with single, dual or quad data lines.
Use a special signal conversion device:
You can find out whether there are ready-made MIPI to QSPI signal conversion devices or modules on the market. These devices usually have the necessary conversion logic and circuits built in.
If there is no ready-made device, you can consider customizing and developing a signal conversion device, which requires professional hardware design knowledge and experience.
Use control chip:
Choose a control chip that supports MIPI and QSPI interfaces, which can receive MIPI signals and convert them into QSPI signals.
Write the corresponding driver on the control chip to realize the functions of signal conversion and data transmission.
Hardware connection:
Connect the MIPI interface of the LCD screen to the MIPI input of the control chip or signal conversion device.
Connect the QSPI output of the control chip or signal conversion device to the QSPI device to be connected.
Software configuration:
Configure the corresponding registers on the control chip to set the parameters of the MIPI and QSPI interfaces, such as data transmission rate, clock signal, etc.
Write the driver to realize the conversion of MIPI signals to QSPI signals and ensure the correct transmission of data.
Compatibility:
Make sure that the selected control chip or signal conversion device is compatible with the MIPI interface of the LCD screen and the QSPI device to be connected.
Note that different brands and models of LCD screens and control chips may have different interface standards and electrical characteristics, which require detailed matching and testing.
Data transmission rate:
MIPI interface usually has a higher data transmission rate, while the data transmission rate of QSPI interface may be limited.
When performing signal conversion, it is necessary to ensure that the data transmission rate is within the tolerance range of the QSPI interface to avoid data loss or errors.
Signal integrity:
When performing signal conversion, it is necessary to pay attention to maintaining the integrity of the signal, including the amplitude, phase and frequency of the signal.
Signal integrity test tools can be used to detect the quality of the converted signal to ensure the reliability of data transmission.
Power consumption and heat dissipation:
The signal conversion device or control chip may generate a certain amount of power consumption and heat when working.
It is necessary to ensure that the power consumption of the conversion device or chip is within the allowable range, and take corresponding heat dissipation measures to avoid overheating damage.
In summary, changing the MIPI interface of the LCD display to the QSPI interface requires a special signal conversion method, device or control chip. In actual operation, it is necessary to select a suitable conversion scheme according to the specific equipment and application scenario, and conduct detailed testing and optimization to ensure the reliability and stability of data transmission.
