# SPI LCD and Touch Panel Example
[esp_lcd](https://docs.espressif.com/projects/esp-idf/en/latest/esp32/api-reference/peripherals/lcd.html) provides several panel drivers out-of box, e.g. ST7789, SSD1306, NT35510. However, there're a lot of other panels on the market, it's beyond `esp_lcd` component's responsibility to include them all.
`esp_lcd` allows user to add their own panel drivers in the project scope (i.e. panel driver can live outside of esp-idf), so that the upper layer code like LVGL porting code can be reused without any modifications, as long as user-implemented panel driver follows the interface defined in the `esp_lcd` component.
This example shows how to use GC9A01 or ILI9341 display driver from Component manager in esp-idf project. These components are using API provided by `esp_lcd` component. This example will draw a fancy dash board with the LVGL library. For more information about porting the LVGL library, you can also refer to [another lvgl porting example](../i80_controller/README.md).
## Touch controller STMPE610
In this example you can enable touch controller STMPE610 connected via SPI. The SPI connection is shared with LCD screen.
## How to use the example
### Hardware Required
* An ESP development board
* An GC9A01 or ILI9341 LCD panel, with SPI interface (with/without STMPE610 SPI touch)
* An USB cable for power supply and programming
### Hardware Connection
The connection between ESP Board and the LCD is as follows:
```
ESP Board GC9A01/ILI9341 Panel + TOUCH

└──────────────────────┘ └────────────────────┘
```
The GPIO number used by this example can be changed in [lvgl_example_main.c](main/spi_lcd_touch_example_main.c).
Especially, please pay attention to the level used to turn on the LCD backlight, some LCD module needs a low level to turn it on, while others take a high level. You can change the backlight level macro `EXAMPLE_LCD_BK_LIGHT_ON_LEVEL` in [lvgl_example_main.c](main/spi_lcd_touch_example_main.c).
### Build and Flash
Run `idf.py -p PORT build flash monitor` to build, flash and monitor the project. A fancy animation will show up on the LCD as expected.
The first time you run `idf.py` for the example will cost extra time as the build system needs to address the component dependencies and downloads the missing components from registry into `managed_components` folder.
(To exit the serial monitor, type ``Ctrl-]``.)
See the [Getting Started Guide](https://docs.espressif.com/projects/esp-idf/en/latest/get-started/index.html) for full steps to configure and use ESP-IDF to build projects.

## Troubleshooting
* Why the LCD doesn't light up?
* Check the backlight's turn-on level, and update it in `EXAMPLE_LCD_BK_LIGHT_ON_LEVEL`
