FireBeetle Covers-OSD Character Overlay Module SKU:DFR0515 Introduction OSD is the abbreviation of On-screen Display, this is a screen menu adjustment display technology to add different menu-style characters on the screen display. FireBeetle OSD Character Overlay Module is a new product presented by DFRobot. It adopts AT7456E OSD chip. This is a single-channel OSD module, equipped with functions like video drive, sync separator, video separate switch, etc. It comes with 512 bytes EEPROM user-defined storage space. After connected to video sources (AV Signals), the display covers 540x192 pixels which can show 16x30 characters on the screen. Users can also call font library to show characters and images. This FireBeetle OSD Character Overlay Module is compatible with FireBeetle series interfaces and can be directly plugged into FireBeetle mainboards. This module can be widely applied to device character display and time display of monitor device such as road cameras, home automation. Features • • • • • • • • 512-byte EEPROM user-defined storage space Support blink, inverse color and background control characters Support setting lightness line-by-line Maximum 16x30 characters display Support attenuation compensation of video drive output Built-in sync generator and support external compound sync signal input Compatible with NTSC and PAL Built-in characters stock Specification • • • • • • • • • • Operating Voltage: 3.3V~5V Operating Current: 75mA Character Display: 16x30 Character Pixel: 18x12 Resolution: 540x192 Color to Show: Single Color (White) Signal Source: AV I/O Communication Interface: SPI Operating Temperature: -10℃~85℃ Dimension: 2.28in x 1.14in/58mm x 29mm Function Diagram FireBeetle OSD Character Overlay Module Function Diagram • • • • • Video Signal Input: RCA A/V_IN or PH2.0 IN Video Signal Input: RCA A/V_OUT or PH2.0 OUT OSD (On-screen Display) Control: SPI Interface RST: Reset button of OSD chip D2-D5: chip selection is available with dial switch Board Overview NOTE: When disconnect NC, VCC is the output voltage of the power supply(USB power supply: 5V; lithium battery power supply: 3.7V) Tutorial Requirements • • • • • • Hardware AV Interface Camera x 1 AV Interface Display x 1 AV Signal Wire x 2 OSD Character Overlay Module (V1.0) x 1 FireBeetle-ESP32 x 1 • • • • Software Arduino IDE (Version requirements: V1.6.+), Click to Download Arduino IDE from Arduino® Please click to download FireBeetle DFRobot_OSD Library.

Connection Diagram FireBeetle Covers-OSD Character Overlay Module Connection Diagram Operation Steps • • • Connect OSD Character Overlay Module to FireBeetle-ESP32 according to the connection diagram and turn on the OSD dial switch (D3 at here). Connect camera and display to OSD Character Overlay Module according to the connection diagram. Connect FireBeetle-ESP32 to PC with USD wire and open Arduino IDE, download and run examples of DFRobot_OSD library. NOTE: cs variable is chip select pin and it must be respond to dial switch. E.g. Dial switch D3 respond to IO26 of FireBeetle-ESP32. Here the CS is D3.

Parameters: row means Y-axis (0,15), col means X-axis (0,29), s means string. • void displayString(unsigned char row, unsigned char col, unsigned char *s); • Display strings, 16x30 characters utmost. Parameters: row means Y-axis (0,15), col means X-axis (0,29), s means string. • void displayString(unsigned char row, unsigned char col, String s); • Save user-defined characters to OSD designated address. Parameters: addr means OSD address to save characters, dt is a matrix drawn by matrix software. • void storeChar(unsigned short addr,int dt[]); For any questions, advice or cool ideas to share, please visit the DFRobot Forum.
