eincube Posted December 22, 2015 Posted December 22, 2015 I know that the ILI9341 lcd are supported natively by armbian... But, now that i have received the lcd ordered some time ago: http://www.ebay.com/itm/311058563993 I'm trying to guess how i'm supposed to wire it to the cubietruck headers. Which are the pin numbers originally assigned to work with this lcd? Which are the correct options to load fbtft? I have digged around a little bit, but i can't find any working example.
eincube Posted December 30, 2015 Author Posted December 30, 2015 So... There is no hope for a quick reference to point me to how to use this lcd with armbian?
Igor Posted December 30, 2015 Posted December 30, 2015 I can give you only tips where to start: http://docs.cubieboard.org/tutorials/cubietruck/start + http://blog.riyas.org/2014/07/quickly-test-il9341-22-inch-22-spi-tft-raspbmc-fbtft.html = wiring You need to connect SPI, power and 3 GPIOs ... Than follow banana example for loading module: http://www.armbian.com/banana-pi/ 1
eincube Posted December 30, 2015 Author Posted December 30, 2015 Thank you very much Igor. Am i wrong or in armian many GPIOs are already assigned to specific functions? Have you assigned 3 of them to manage this lcd?
Igor Posted December 30, 2015 Posted December 30, 2015 Some pins have more functions. That's not a problem. Just wire SPI2 pins to the LCD, choose 3x GPIO and try. Check .fex if proper SPI is enabled.
