  This demo is based on the GD32A508Z-EVAL-V1.0 board, it shows how to use EXMC 
peripheral to drive LCD. This board uses EXMC_NE1 to support LCD. 
  
  In this demo, you can touch the green button on the LCD screen, then the button 
will change to red color and the corresponding LED will be turned on. If you touch 
other place of the LCD screen, the screen will show the error message and all the 
LEDs will be turned on.

  JP16 must be fitted to the SPI0 port. 
  JP18 and JP19 must be fitted to the EXMC port.
