VM800P Datasheet
Embedded Video
Engine
Plus Module
General Purpose Multi Media Controller
The VM800P is a development module for FTDI’s FT800, which is used to develop and
demonstrate the functionality of the FT800 Embedded Video Engine, EVE.
The VM800P is a stand-alone display system
which has a flash based microcontroller on board,
thus providing a fully integrated display system
ready to go.
The VM800P supports many I/O daughter cards
or shields for expanding external interfacing and
control. These shields use 1 or 2 Micro-MaTch
miniature connectors to interface to the VM800P
main module. Users will be able to purchase
shields from FTDI Chip in the coming months, or
alternatively can build their own shield for
specific applications.
The VM800P series of modules support 3 different
LCD panel size options and are designed for
industrial or commercial environments with
precision fitted bezels in either black (-BK) or
pearl (-PL).
VM800P35A-xx is the 3.5” LCD
VM800P43A-xx is the 4.3” LCD
VM800P50A-xx is the 5.0” LCD
The VM800P utilises the FTDI FT800 Embedded Video
Engine, EVE. Graphic, audio and touch features of the
FT800 chip can be accessed with the VM800P. For a full
list of the FT800’s features please see the FT800
datasheet.
The VM800P module has the following features:
FT800 for graphics, audio and touch processing
ATMEGA328P system microcontroller operating
at 5V/16MHz supporting Arduino libraries
Touch screen LCD panel
Backlight LED driver
Audio power amplifier and micro speaker
FT232R USB serial port for firmware upgrade
Micro-SD socket for application storage, including
4GByte SD Card pre-loaded with sample
applications
Battery backed Real Time Clock
2x Micro-MaTch miniature connectors for
daughter card expansion
5V power supply from micro-USB or battery
connector
Precision fitted bezel in black(-BK) or pearl (-PL)

4 Arduino® Setup
FTDI provides sample source code, sample application notes and a ready to run demo based on
the Arduino® platform. Detailed information can be found at:

o_Introduction.pdf
4.1 Hardware Setup
Connect a USB cable (suggest FTDI accessory VA-FC-1M-BKW or VA-FC-1M-BLW) from the
VM800P USB port CN2 to the PC USB host port or self-powered hub port.
The PC will supply power to the VM800P after the FTDI FT232R driver is properly loaded
and the USB host completes USB device configuration.
4.2 Software Setup
The arduino code can be downloaded from the Arduino IDE to the ATMEGA328P through the USB
connector CN2 connected to the PC. The USB connector CN2 is also used to display debug output
from the ATMEGA328P to the PC terminal application.
Default sample code is downloaded to the ATMEGA328P during the VM800P module
manufacturing. When the VM800P is connected to the PC through the USB connector CN2, the
VM800P is powered up and the sample code is functional with the demo applications.
Download the Arduino IDE from http://arduino.cc/en/main/software.
Install the Arduino IDE
Open the Arduino IDE
Open the FT800 sample project to be downloaded to the VM800P
(Examples are available from:
http://www.ftdichip.com/Support/SoftwareExamples/FT800_Projects.htm
Or you may have developed your own code)
Select the Tools->Board-> Arduino Pro or Pro Mini(5V, 16MHz) w/ATmega328 as shown in
Fig 4.1.
Select the Tools->Serial Port->COMxx corresponding to the VM800P as shown in Fig 4.2.
Click the Upload button as shown in Fig 4.3. This will upload the FT800 sample to the
VM800P.
