1 Introduction
1.1 Features
The VM800C is a development module for
FTDI’s FT800, which is used to develop and
demonstrate the functionality of the FT800
Embedded Video Engine, EVE. This module
behaves as an SPI slave, and requires a SPI
Master for proper micro-controller interfacing
and system integration.
VM800C modules support 3 different LCD
panel size options. Users can also connect to
different LCD screens as long as they meet
the FT800 technical specification and fit the
VM800C LCD connector.

 VM800C43A-D, 3.3/5V micro-
controller adaptor card with 4.3” LCD
touch display
 VM800C50A-D, 3.3/5V micro-
controller adaptor card with 5.0” LCD
 VMFT800C35A-N, 3.3/5V micro-
controller adaptor card, with 3.5”
LCD connector but no display
 VMFT800C43A-N, 3.3/5V micro-
controller adaptor card, with 4.3/5.0”
LCD connector but no display
The VM800C utilises the FTDI FT800
Embedded Video Engine. Graphic, audio and
touch features of the FT800 can be accessed
with the VM800C. For a full list of the FT800’s
features please see the FT800 datasheet.
The VM800C has the following features:
 Ready to use LCD module
 Part types with LCDs supporting resistive
touch with pressure sensing.
 On board LCD backlight LED Driver
 Supports mono audio output
 On board audio power amplifier and micro
speaker
 Flexible power supply. Powering the VM800C
using either a 2.1mm power jack , SPI
master connector or via USB Micro-B port
 5 V tolerant buffers when used with a 5V SPI
Master.
