Hardware Implementation

The Kitronix K350QVG-V2-F, which is featured in the Stellaris® Graphics Library demo was chosen as the display. The Kitronix display is a full color QVGA LCD screen with 320 x 240 pixels capable of displaying over 250,000 unique colors.

To meet the design goals that require acceptable drawing times on the Kitronix LCD, an MSP430F5529 was selected. The MSP430F5529 supports system clock speeds of up to 25 MHz for fast drawing operations, and has enough GPIO pins to implement a large parallel interface. The MSP430F5529 also has 8KB of RAM along with 128KB of Flash memory to store large images for drawing to the display.
