The changes in the microcontroller market are like the growing technology trends that come one after another. Not only the intelligent and cloud applications but also the use of display is implemented in various applications. Nuvoton products provide multiple selections that support TFT color displays from the smallest of 320x240 (2.4 inches) to 800x480 (7 inches). 

The NuMicro M032 supporting panel resolution of 320x240 can be used in different applications such as products for scooter dashboards, fire safety, and smart homes. By providing a free graphic development program, emWin, Nuvoton helps the partner reduce the difficult visual part and directly use the graphic interface to complete the GUI interface. This can significantly reduce the burden of the graphical design process. 

The M032 series with built-in Arm® Cortex-M0 core and maximum processing speed reaching 72Mz provides a series of 16 products available for selection. It also has embedded Flash reaching 512KB and 96KB of SRAM to save multilayer image data.

For the HMI products, the M032 mainly provides the following functions:

• Free graphic software emWin
• SPI and i80 interfaces
• Support panel resolution of 320x240
• Support PDMA
• Provides as many as 11 UARTs

The NuMaker-emWin-M032 platform is an advanced HMI emWin development board based on NuMicro M032 MCU, a series of Cortex-M0 MCUs with up to 72 MHz core speed. NuMicro M032 supports a high-speed QSPI ( 24 MHz ) interface to store GUI images into external SPI Flash. For connecting with TFT LCD, there are two choices by either using SPI interface or EBI interface, which supports 16-bit i80 mode TFT LCD with up to 320 x 240 resolution.

NuMaker emWin M032 platform provides not only NuMaker-PFM-M032 but also a set of hardware and software development package including software board support package ( BSP ), schematic, PCB layout file, Gerber file, user manual, and BOM.
