Hi
I am using LPC1788 with Emwin graphical library and my configuration is Emwin graphical library is in Internal Flash Emwin fonts are downloaded into External Flash from PC and copied to SDRAM on boot up which is on EMC of LPC1788. my scatter file is configured accordingly
Everything is working fine with above configuration but as i have many fonts in my application and 4 languages the font binary file size is 14MB which is downloaded to the unit and into NAND flash which is on EMC. It takes around 30 minutes to download all the fonts to the NAND with 115200 baud on UART.
My fonts are copied to SDRAM from NAND at boot up. This booting time also is 15-20 secs as data is 14MB This configuration is working fine and LCD displays my fonts perfectly
I wanted to ask is there any way to directly access fonts in external NAND instead of copying to SDRAM as it will save lot of boot up time. my external NAND is also connected to LPC1788 on EMC
Has anyone used such a configuration - Emwin with fonts in external NAND Flash Memory
Thanks in Advance

Dear Anuj, I have more or less the same scenario. I have 15-20MB of resources (font and bitmap) and I need to transfer them in ram. I would like to understand how you are doing to compile resources and how you handle them. Do you generate a list of Flash addresses together with bineries? Any help is apreciated as well documents and application notes. Best regards.
