RA8889 Brief Description:
A Micro GPU from RAIO, designed specifically for embedded HMI applications. Paired with a basic MCU sending commands, it can drive mainstream TFT color displays at 1366×768, 1280×800, 1024×768, and other resolutions. The chip features built-in 128Mb SDRAM and integrates 2D BTE graphics acceleration with hardware JPEG/AVI decoding, placing zero burden on the MCU for display rendering.
RA8889 Hardware Architecture:

RA8889 Main Features:
(1) Host Interface
- Supports 8080/6800 8/16-bit asynchronous parallel interface
- Provides Xnwait signal for extended MPU cycles for handshaking
- Supports serial host interface, e.g., IIC, 3/4-wire SPI
- Supports mirror and rotation functions for image data writing
(2) Input Display Data Format
- 1bpp: Monochrome (1-bit/pixel)
- 8bpp: RGB 3:3:2 (1-byte/pixel)
- 16bpp: RGB 5:6:5 (2-byte/pixel)
- 24bpp: RGB 8:8:8 (3-byte/pixel or 4-byte/pixel)
Index 2:6 (64 indexed colors/pixel with transparency attribute)
αRGB 4:4:4:4 (4096 indexed colors/pixel with transparency attribute)
αRGB 8:8:8:8 (8-bit alpha, 24bpp color depth)
(3) Display Mode
- User can set 24/18/16-bit TFT display output mode
- Supports screen resolution up to 1366x2048 pixels (Note: Actual panel resolution depends on pixel clock and color depth)
(4) Graphics Processing Functions
- Hardware decoding: Automatically recognizes JPEG, BMP and AVI formats; supports JPEG baseline profile, YUV444, YUV422, YUV420, YUV400 (does not support restart interval format)
- Picture-in-picture (PIP): Supports two PIP windows
- Flip display: Horizontal/vertical flip display function only applies to display, does not affect read/write of other functional blocks
- Geometric drawing: Supports drawing points, lines, curves, circles, ellipses, triangles, rectangles, rounded rectangles
- Block Transfer (BTE): Copy data with raster operations and color expansion, blend transparency, solid color extraction, graphic blend transparency, pixel blend transparency
(5) Text Functions
- Built-in ISO/IEC 8859-1/2/4/5. 12x24
- Supports Jietong serial font ROM
- Supports vertical and horizontal font magnification 2~4 times
- Supports text rotation by 90 degrees
(6) DMA Function
- Supports copying data from external serial flash to frame buffer
- Supports external flash Single/Dual/Quad mode
(7) Key Interface
- Supports 5x5 keyboard (multiplexed with GPIO pins)
- Scan cycle programmable
- Supports long press and repeat keys
- Supports pressing two or three keys simultaneously
- Supports keyboard wake-up function
(8) PWM and Timer
- Built-in two 16-bit counters
- One 8-bit prescaler and one 4-bit frequency divider
- Output waveform duty cycle is programmable
- Auto-reload mode or one-shot mode
