Silicon Labs Graphics Library.

Graphics Library

Silicon Labs Graphics Library. Feature rich graphics library for memory constrained applications.


Introduction

GLIB is a graphics library that can be used to draw pixels, common shapes, text or bitmaps to a display connected to an MCU. The main goal of this library is easy of use and small code and memory footprint. In this way GLIB can be used on even the smallest Cortex-M0 devices.

GLIB treats the display as a matrix of pixels which is a model of the physical display. This matrix is exposed to GLIB via an API called DMD (Dot Matrix Display). So in order to draw something on a physical display the user application needs to provide GLIB with a single implementation of the DMD interface. Sample DMD implementations are provided for the displays that are connected to the Silion Labs Starter Kits and the Silicon Labs Development Kits.


Initialization

There are two things that must be initialized before GLIB can be used to draw pixels on the display. First the user needs to initialize the DMD implementation for the actual hardware display which is used. This initialization is display hardware specific.

After the DMD is initialized the user needs to initialize a GLIB_Context_t that can be used for all the drawing operations. A GLIB_Context_t structure is initialized using the GLIB_contextInit() function.

Every GLIB drawing function will require a GLIB_Context_t as one of the functions arguments. The GBLI context contains important configuration values that all the drawing functions use. It contains the foreground and background color, and it also contains information on what font to use when rendering text on the display.


Color

GLIB represent color in a pixel as three 8 bit color values representing red, green and blue, giving the user support for a 24 bit color depth. The GLIB_rgbColor() function can be used to convert from distinct red, green and blue values to an 32-bit integer representing the color of single pixel. Similarly the GLIB_colorTranslate24bpp() function can be used to convert from the 32-bit integer representation into the 3 separate red, green and blue components. The 32-bit integer representation of a pixel color is used when configuring the foreground and background color.

GLIB also contains some common predefined colors for use in places where a 32-bit integer is used to represent the color. These predefined colors include White , Black , Brown , Orange , and many more. See the GLIB Colors for the full list of colors.

Some displays are monochrome, meaning that they only support 2 colors. When using GLIB to draw shapes on these displays the applications should use only the 2 colors White and Black .


Draw Shapes

GLIB contains functions for drawing common shapes to a display. Here is a list containing all the drawing functions.


Draw Pixels

These are functions that GLIB provides for drawing one pixel.


Font rendering

GLIB Supports fixed width font rendering. The functions GLIB_drawString() and GLIB_drawChar() are used to render text on the display.

GLIB provides these fonts for the user

  • GLIB_FontNormal8x8 A normal 8x8 pixel font which is the defaul font if nothing else is configured.
  • GLIB_FontNarrow6x8 A narrow 6x8 pixel font which can be used if the default font is to wide.
  • GLIB_FontNumber16x20 A large font for use with only numbers. This font is 16x20 pixels.

To change the font the user calls GLIB_setFont() with a pointer to a GLIB_Font_t structure which describes the whole font. The GLIB_Font_t structure contains a pointer to the bitmap for each character and it describes attributes of the font like the width and height of each character and it also contains the bitmap of each character.


Draw Bitmap

To draw an image or custom bitmaps on the display the GLIB_drawBitmap() function can be used. The color displays typically use a bitmap format where each pixel is represented by 3 consecutive bytes representing the red, green and blue color components. While monochrome displays typically use a bitmap format where 1 byte represents 8 pixels where a 1 bit is white and a 0 bit is black. Note that bitmaps are insensitive to the foreground and background color settings, and that the format of the bitmap depends on the DMD implementation of the display.


Example

This examples shows how to initialize a GLIB context and draw something on a display.

static GLIB_Context_t context;
static const char * msg = "Hello GLIB!" ;
void glibExample( void )
{
// Setup the dot matrix and initialize the GLIB context - these should be called once
GLIB_contextInit (&context);
// Write our message into the GLIB instance.
GLIB_drawString (&context, msg, strlen(msg), 10, 10, true );
// Needs to be called each time there is a change to GLIB to mirror
// GLIB context data model changes to the physical LCD.
}

uint32_t width,
uint32_t height,
const uint8_t * picData
)

Draws a bitmap.

Sets up a bitmap that starts at x0,y0 and draws bitmap.

For monochrome displays, each 8-bit element contains 8 pixel values. A bit value of 1 indicates a white pixel, while 0 indicates a black pixel. Note that this format may vary with the DMD implementation.

For 3-bit RGB displays, each bit in the array are one color component (red, green and blue) of the pixel, so that 3 bits represent one pixel (0xBGR). Pixel 0: Bits 2:0 (0bBGR) of byte 0 Pixel 1: Bits 5:3 (0bBGR) of byte 0 Pixel 2: Bits 7:6 (0bGR) of byte 0 and bit 0 (0bB) of byte 1 Pixel 3: Bits 3:1 (0bBGR) of byte 1 ...

For RGB displays with 8-bits per color, each pixel is represented by 24-bits, with one byte for each of the red, green and blue components. The data has to be organized like this: picData = { R, G, B, R, G, B, R, G, B ... }

The pixels are ordered by increasing x coordinate, after the last pixel of a row, the next pixel will be the first pixel on the next row.

Parameters
pContext Pointer to a GLIB_Context_t in which the bitmap is drawn.
x Start x-coordinate for bitmap
y Start y-coordinate for bitmap
width Width of picture
height Height of picture

For monochrome displays, the result is an inversion of the image.

For RGB displays, the result is the negative of the input image.

Note
The function inverts entire bytes, meaning that any bits contained within the array that may not be part of the image will also be inverted.
Parameters
pContext Pointer to a GLIB_Context_t in which the bitmap is drawn.
