EVE - VM800C

VM800C - FT800 Development Platform

The VM800C development systems are credit-card sized modules that are offered with or without displays. These small form factor modules support 3.5”, 4.3” or 5” TFT displays.

Included in the module is a speaker for audio output and a 0.1” pitch connector socket for interfacing to the SPI or I²C interface of the system host MCU. There are 5 power configuration methods including a mini-USB socket and a 2 pin, DC connector. See the table below for accessory options including power supplies and USB cables (sold separately).

Documentation

A complete listing of technical documentation is provided below. Due to the size of the documents and Sample Application software environment, FTDI Chip recommends that purchasers of a VM800C development system, first acquaint themselves with the DS_VM800C and DS_FT800 datasheets, after which familiarity with EVE's pseudo language found in the Programming Guide is advised. The remaining documents and Sample Application software have been developed with an orientation toward system and design implementation.
