Adafruit TFT driver and WAVESHARE TFT

Using Arduino Programming Questions
1

Hi,

I have this TFT:

The driver available here > File:2.8inch TFT Touch Shield code.7z - Waveshare Wiki

This driver is crap and need to use the adafruit > GitHub - adafruit/Adafruit-GFX-Library: Adafruit GFX graphics core Arduino library, this is the 'core' class that all our other graphics libraries derive from with Adafruit_TFTLCD library.

It's possible to use this ? What is the pinout ?

Adafruit_TFTLCD tft(LCD_CS, LCD_CD, LCD_WR, LCD_RD, LCD_RESET); ??

TFT TABLE:

Arduino PIN Symbol Description
D3 TP_IRQ Touch panel interrupt
D4 TP_CS Touch panel chip select
D5 SD_CS Micro SD card chip select
D7 LCD_DC LCD data/command selection
D9 LCD_BL LCD backlight control
D10 LCD_CS LCD chip select
D11 MOSI SPI data input
D12 MISO SPI data output
D13 SCLK SPI clock

Thanks.

Consult the Adafruit library documentation. It's pretty good.

Adafruit did make a display shield with the same display; I think that shield may be a straight-up clone of the adafruit one. Try it out, does it work?

No .. because the problem is the pinout of the shield !! LCD_DC ?? LCD_BL ?? LCD_CS ?
