MIPI Display Bus Interface (DBI)

The MIPI DBI driver class implements support for MIPI DBI compliant display controllers.

MIPI DBI defines 3 interface types:

• Type A: Motorola 6800 parallel bus

• Type B: Intel 8080 parallel bus

• Type C: SPI Type serial bit bus with 3 options:

  1. 9 write clocks per byte, final bit is command/data selection bit

  2. Same as above, but 16 write clocks per byte

  3. 8 write clocks per byte. Command/data selected via GPIO pin

Currently, the API does not support Type C controllers with 16 write clocks (option 2).
