Hi All,
Working on a project right now that uses the following components:
- Adafruit Feather M0 Adalogger (https://www.adafruit.com/product/2796)
- 7.0" TFT Touchscreen (https://www.adafruit.com/product/2354)
- RA8875 TFT Driver (https://www.adafruit.com/product/1590)
- STMPE610 Touch Driver (https://www.adafruit.com/product/1571)
What I'm trying to accomplish is a GUI for a DIY CMM and could really use some guidance as to the best way to attack this.
I have a Teensy 3.6 on the way that I want to replace the Feather M0. My reason is for the higher clock speed and possible use of Sumotoy's RA8875 Library.
The couple questions I have are:
- Does the Sumotoy library work with the Teensy 3.6? I've done a lot of looking and am seeing mixed results
- Even though the built-in micro SD card slot supports SDIO 4 bit transfers, I am still limited to 1 bit transfers for communicating with the RA8875, correct? So any speed increase in SPI is directly related to the increased clock speed of the 3.6?
- The SD card uses an internal form of SPI correct? One that doesnt tie up a broken out SPI bus, so I could connect the RA8875 to SPI0 and communicate, correct?
I have the display working with the components mentioned above and the basic library that Adafruit provides for the RA8875. I have built up some sketches for it, although after coming across Sumoty's library, it seems as though he has done a ton of work to better interface with the RA8875. I would love to be able to use some of the functions from Sumotoy's library, such as the scrolling and layering features. As well as increased bitmap rendering speeds.
Any help with this is greatly appreciated guys, thanks!
