nanopi neo tft display in stock

Hello, I have been trying for a few weeks to get this LCD dsiplay (Store Wiki) to work with the NanoPi Neo Air.  The display driver required is apparently the ST7789V.

This thread mentioned the display I am using and talked about building a custom kernel. I got the build env up ran a kernel build but I was not able to find any drivers relating to the ST7789V.

Just 7.5-grams…Yes, you read it right! The Nano Pi NEO Air (40mm-square) is 12% smaller and much faster as compared to the Raspberry Pi Zero. The p...

NanoPi NEO Quad Core Cortex A7 Board [256M, 512GB RAM] is a full computer on a small single-board (smaller than half size of the Raspberry Pi), which consist of CPU, GPU, HDD, RAM, Ports, and also operating systems to be placed in educational robot, copters, toys, etc., to command and control things. FriendlyARM is an open-source computer developer which makes open-source single-board computers with NanoPi brand, for Linux hackers, toymakers, and hobbyists. Such a single-board computer can be run under the Linux based operating system. The NanoPi computers are produced in different model and series of NanoPi 2, NanoPi 2 Fire, NanoPi M1, NanoPi M2, NanoPi M3, NanoPi NEO, NanoPi NEO Air, NanoPi NEO core, NanoPi S2, NanoPi fire, Nano Pi Duo, etc.

This computer board is NEO series and based on the Allwinner H3, Quad-core Cortex-A7 Up to 1.2GHz CPU with 256MB or 512MB optional  DDR3 SDRAM, which is booted and operated on the Linux Based operating system such as u-boot and UbuntuCore. This series is ultra-low size, simplified, and funny, to control the things easily and simply.  This board is supplied by 5V DC with 2A current through the micro-USB port or 2 pins input. It has  OTG-USB (data and power in), USB2A-host, USB (through the pins of GPIO pins), MiPi video socket (for LCD and camera), and RJ45 as input ports and pins serial GPIO-UART, SPI, I2C, Audio, etc, and a TFT slot.

This computer board is sold alone, but you can prepare its dedicated accessory such as USB to Micro-USB cable, 220 to 5V 2A adapter, NanoPi case, from our site store.

This computer board is Duo series and based on the Allwinner H3, Quad-core Cortex-A7 Up to 1.2GHz 64-bit support CPU and optional memory of 256MB DDR3 SDRAM with 4GB eMMC flash or 512MB DDR3 SDRAM with 8GB eMMC flash, which is booted and operated on the Linux Based operating system such as U-boot, Ubuntu-Core. This series is an ultra-low size, simplified, and funny, to begin controlling the things easily and simply. This board is supplied by 5V DC with 2A current through the micro-USB port or 2 pins connection. It has OTG--USB (and power in) USB2-host (through the 4 pins of GPIO p[ins), MiPi video socket (for LCD and camera), and ethernet (through the GPIO pins) as input ports and 16 pins serial GPIO-UART, SPI, I2C, Audio, etc, and a TFT slot.

Mini Shield for NanoPi NEO Core/Core2 is a customized function expansion baseboard specially designed for NanoPi NEO Core and NanoPi NEO Core2. The baseboard expands common interfaces such as network port, debug serial port, audio, USB and so on.

The 2x13 Pin header in the upper left corner of the board leads to the I0 interface of anoPi NEO Core or Core2, which is convenient for connecting other functional modules.

Starter kit with NanoPi NEO minicomputer. The set includes a NanoPi NEO 512 MB minicomputer, an aluminum housing, a NanoHat OLED display, a microUSB cable, a heat sink, an 16 GB memory card and the necessary mounting hardware.

So – nice looking – I’m not sure why they chose hardwired Ethernet over WIFI – I’d have gone the other way and kept the height down – but there you are. The existing case for the NEO does not fit the new model incidentally.

One thing that worried me – and I’ve complained about this before – the requirements are: A NEO2 (obviously), a micro TFT card, a power supply and “a computer running Ubuntu 14.04 64 bit” – FRIENDLYARM – YOU MUST BE JOKING! Most of us in the west have Microsoft Windows PCs. I do have one PC running Linux – it is running MINT and I’ve no intention of changing that just for one new board!!!

So, despite desire for Debian, I downloaded the Ubuntu Core software from the FriendlyArm WIKI site. I blew the image file with Win32 Disk Imager as usual and plugged it into the NEO 2 board. From what I could read, this would expand on first use and might take some time.

I’ve now heard back from FriendlyArm on the subject of GPIO and the issues I had – they have fixed the most trivial – the temperature display – here is the link – https://www.sendspace.com/file/eqh907

The NanoPi M3 is another ARM board developed by FriendlyARM for makers, hobbyists and hackers. With this new friend we wish you could get not only tech skills but also unique experiences in various applications and hacking. It is small, elegant but has rich ports and interfaces. Playing with it and working with it the M3 will not only inspire your ideas...
