Hi all,
for my new project I´m looking for a 5-7 inch TFT display to use with a ESP32 NodeMCU.
The backlight of the display should be controlled by software (on/off).
Has anyone a recommondation?
Background:
I want to create a room information display (temperature, humidity, other room-based stuff) inside a picture frame. First thought was to us a WaveShare ePaper 7.5 inch display.
This works really nice in full update mode - however in rooms where a clock is needed the image looses brightness with every partial refresh. Actually i´, doing partial refresh every 90s and full refresh every 20 min. So every 20 minutes display flashes for about 5 seconds.
Also the display has problems with direct sunlight. So my idea was to switch to a tft where the backlight can be switched off.
Thanks for your input,
Bernd
