Can anyone clear me up on where the LCD User Interface is mapped to in memory on the AT91SAM9261-EK board. (The Registers listed on page 600 of the preliminary spec. rev C). The documentation suggests 0x0060_0000. This also seems to be what is in the AT91SAM9261.h file on the LCD-demo. But, if I try and look at 0x0060_0000 using SAM-BA, I get the error message
"Wrong Address or Memory Overrun"

The reason is that I can't get the LCD-Demo to work so far. I've compiled, loaded, checked some locations by reading them out with SAM-BA but all I have is a power-led and white TFT on the board.

I must admit I am not using the tools provided on the CD. My flow uses the ARM compiler from codesourcery and is done on Linux. But as I said I have compiled OK. My next step would be to try and manually write to some registers and try and see some changes on the TFT, just to see whether I am on the right track. (This works for the LEDs D57 and D58 for instance)

Any help would be appreciated.

SAM-BA for SAM9261 is not configured to access the adress range of the LCD controller, this is the reason of your error message

It does not prevent you from using the available commands to write or read to these addresses but not thanks to the display memory window...

I think that this should be updated !!!

Well, I've tried accessing some registers in the range above 0x0060_0000 using the available commands but nothing seems to work. Reading always returns zero. (e.g. after writing to 0060_081C, which should be one of the dithering registers)

Would this work better with SAM-ICE?

Any further help appreciated.

using SAM-BA if you want to check AT91SAM9261 evaluation kit's LCD you have to remap the RAM into 300000 address location.

After downloading the bin file to SRAM give the command go 0x300000

it will show the output on the LCD
