LogicWeavers 0 Posted September 7, 2013 Share Posted September 7, 2013 Hey RobG ... Nice job. Got one of these for my embedded application prototype ... too right. Need a little help however. Would you post direct or by reference a data sheet that will allow me to program the LCD unit. Likewise some info on how to get to the microSD if I need to have some extra space, and perhaps any other memory spaces. Thanks man, keep up the creative effort, really glad your out here.

RobG 1,892 Posted September 8, 2013 Author Share Posted September 8, 2013 Thanks! Here's the latest driver you can use (supports G and F series.) I don't have any SD card examples yet, but I do have some examples for the optional on board memory (23Kxxx or 25AAxxx.) Schematic is attached. Datasheet is too big to attach, so just search for ILI9340 or ILI9342. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
MarkusR 0 Posted September 9, 2013 Share Posted September 9, 2013 Thanks for the schematic. I'm trying to determine which G2553 pins remain unused. P1.1-P1.3, P2.1, XIN, XOUT, TEST, RST, appear to be unused. Is that correct? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
RobG 1,892 Posted September 9, 2013 Author Share Posted September 9, 2013 Those pins are used by default: P1.0, P1.4, P1.5, P1.6, P1.7 MarkusR 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Drauvargur 0 Posted October 23, 2013 Share Posted October 23, 2013 Hi, I recently found this item on tindie and was curious if anyone had connected this module to a raspberry pi? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
RobG 1,892 Posted October 23, 2013 Author Share Posted October 23, 2013 You should have no problem using it with Raspberry Pi, this LCD uses standard SPI. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
MarkusR 0 Posted December 4, 2013 Share Posted December 4, 2013 Do you think I could hook up a SMBus device to a Launchpad with this screen on it? The screen would be nice for charge monitoring. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
RobG 1,892 Posted December 5, 2013 Author Share Posted December 5, 2013 Do you think I could hook up a SMBus device to a Launchpad with this screen on it? The screen would be nice for charge monitoring. The only problem is that this BP uses USCI-B. You would have to map it's pins to use USCI-A. This way USCI-B could be used for SMBus. Which LP do you have? SMBus using MSP430 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
MarkusR 0 Posted December 5, 2013 Share Posted December 5, 2013 It's a MSPEXP430G2 with a G2553. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
RobG 1,892 Posted December 5, 2013 Author Share Posted December 5, 2013 OK, so you would have to move some pins around. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
MarkusR 0 Posted December 6, 2013 Share Posted December 6, 2013 It might be because I've had a couple of beers, but that totally came across with the voice of Dr Doofenshmirtz. As it should. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

draconisys 0 Posted December 24, 2013 Share Posted December 24, 2013 Complete n00b question: 1) which transistor to use for the backlight? Also looks like it needs a resistor. Thanks in advance. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
