Hello All,
1. I am having trouble initializing my NHD-C0216CZ-NSW-BBW-3V3 LCD using an STM32f303 discovery board. I am using the logic analyzer to debug my SPI communication protocol and the data I'm sending seems to be fine. I'm using the following SPI clock settings to send data; CPOL=1, CPHA=1.
2. I've done the following hardware connections: Between C1+ to C1- a 2.2uF cap, Vout to 1uF to GND; rest of the LCD pins to the microcontroller pins.
3. I've used the following initialization routine. The timing between the instructions sent is correct when I checked with my logic analyzer:

void lcd_initialization(void)
{
   SS=1;
        MOSI=1;
        SCK=1;
       
        RS=1;

   
   RST=1   
        Delay(2);
   RST=0
   Delay(20);
   send_inst(0x30);            // wake up
   Delay(2);
   send_inst(0x30);            // wake up
   send_inst(0x30);            // wake up
   send_inst(0x39);
   send_inst(0x14);            // wake up
   send_inst(0x56);            // function set and instruction table = 1
   send_inst(0x6D);            // interanl oscillator frequency
   send_inst(0x70);          // power control
   send_inst(0x0C);            // follower control
   send_inst(0x06);            // contrast set
   send_inst(0x01);
   Delay(2);
}



4. I also used the following initialization routine:
void lcd_initialization(void)
{
   SS=1;
        MOSI=1;
        SCK=1;
       
        RS=1;
   
   
   RST=1   
        Delay(2);
   RST=0
   
    Delay(40);
   send_inst(0x38);            // wake up
   send_inst(0x39);            // wake up
   send_inst(0x14);            // wake up
   send_inst(0x78);            // function set and instruction table = 1
   send_inst(0x5E);            // interanl oscillator frequency
   send_inst(0x6A);          // power control
    delay (200);
   send_inst(0x0C);            // follower control
   send_inst(0x01);            // contrast set
   delay (2);
   send_inst(0x06);         // entry mode set

}

Also, how do I check for the LCD busy flag when I only have a MOSI pin for the LCD but not a MISO pin??

I'm clueless on how to proceed further and the LCD shows no signs of life whatsoever except for the backlight. Any help would be really appreciated.

Thanks,
Krishna
