FPC with zif connector is easily to assemble or remove.Lanscape mode is also available.

Of course, we wouldn"t just leave you with a datasheet and a "good luck!".Here is the link for 2.8"TFT Touch Shield with Libraries, Examples.Schematic Diagram for Arduino Due,Mega 2560 and Uno . For 8051 microcontroller user,we prepared the detailed tutorial such as interfacing, demo code and development kit at the bottom of this page.

The LCD module C-Berry designed by Admatec comes as a 3.5-inch diagonal TFT screen [1]. It also includes an adapter for the GPIO interface of the Rasp Pi, which makes it possible to integrate the hardware without much effort into your projects. The screen has an off-the-shelf price tag of about EUR 40 at dealers like Conrad or ELV Electronics.

The easy-to-understand documentation for the module and the source code that accompany it form a solid foundation for building your own applications. You will be able to create programs quickly that can be controlled from one script. This solution is just right if you want to supplement the QR code player [2] presented in the previous edition of Raspberry Pi GEEK with a graphical output feature. The player as described already lets children select the music they want to hear through with the use of QR codes and a small remote control.

It would be nice, however, if the player could provide ongoing feedback about its operating status. Hooking up a full-fledged monitor and a bulky X server does not sound practical, because the player is supposed to help protect CDs from the rough and tumble of everyday life in a play room. Adding a monitor would defeat the entire purpose of the music player.

LCD modules can function with limited power input. The module considered in this article uses just 2 watts, and with its 3.5-inch diagonal dimension, it is suited for incorporation into your own hardware. One inherent disadvantage of this kind of module is that you are responsible for arranging the output of graphical elements and text because the X server does not drive these. The effort required to arrange this output varies according to the use to which you put the module.

The C-Berry module (Figure 1) can display 320 pixels horizontally and 240 pixels vertically. It emits a relatively strong 600 lumen, which means the visual display is easy to see even in daylight. At 5 volts, the module pulls about 350mA from the GPIO port and thus does not need its own power supply.

Although the adapter takes up the entire GPIO port, it loops through the unused connections. Therefore, it is definitely possible to run other projects that access the interface in parallel.

The controller is set up to output simple graphics, text, and bitmaps. You can combine these elements according to need. For example, you can place text on top of bitmaps or even create diagrams by means of graphical elements. The example programs provided by the manufacturer show that the programming process for combining elements is relatively uncomplicated. The graphics controller also has external typeface storage into which you can load your own fonts as needed.

The LCD module comes in three parts: the basic TFT screen, an adapter for the GPIO port, and the connection cable that runs between the adapter and the screen. To put the parts together, you just connect the flat ribbon cable to both the screen and the adapter and then plug the adapter into the GPIO port. You need to make sure the ribbon cable is positioned correctly: Be sure the metal contact points on the cable point upward and away from the board when it is connected (Figure 2).

The Raspberry Pi is supposed to be getting an official touchscreen before too long. The user will simply plug the touchscreen into the Rasp Pi board, thereby transforming the nanocomputer into a type of tablet PC [5]. Because of the increased height of the tandem setup the Raspberry Pi Foundation foresees application of the touchscreen primarily in embedded systems. The screen is supposed to have a resolution of 640x480 pixels.

The C-Berry screen from Admatec is a TFT display screen (Figure 2) that has been available for purchase for some time [6]. It costs around $45 and is connected via the SPI port. However, the display has limited resolution of about 320x240 and does not understand touch gestures. It does have the advantage of not needing an additional power supply.

The Unicorn Hat [7] mini light display has 64 RGB LEDs set up in an 8x8 matrix. Each of the RGB LEDs can be controlled individually, allowing the Rasp Pi to display simple images, generate special lighting effects, or project a particular mood in a room. The manufacturer has issued a warning regarding the brightness of the LEDs. It is recommended that users avoid looking directly at the Unicorn Hat when the lights are turned on because of their extreme brightness. Users are also advised to use a diffuser to scatter or dim the light whenever possible.

The Unicorn Hat uses Pulse Width Modulation (PWM) hardware and GPIO pin 18. The Raspberry Pi should also be connected to a power supply that delivers 2A. The Unicorn Hat costs £24/$36.

Gertboard [8] is an extension that any user wanting to use the Raspberry Pi for measurements, control, or regulation should take a look at. Among other things, the board can be used as a control for motors, analog-to-digital (AD) and DA transformers, a freely programmable ATmega microcontroller, a pressure switch, and open collector outputs. The Gertboard can be connected directly to the GPIO pins with a flat ribbon cable. You can purchase one of these boards for about EUR50/$56.

The RasPiComm can be used to retrofit a series RS232 interface [9]. This adapter board gets plugged into the GPIO pins, and it offers I2C connections for things like sensors. It also offers a five-way joystick connection and an RS485 interface for attaching the control for stepper motors. The RasPiComm contains a real-time clock that runs on battery, even when the Rasp Pi is shut down; it costs $56. For the user who only needs an RS232 interface, the RS232 GPIO shield from LinkSprite is a good alternative with its $22 price tag [10]. See the "Everything at Once" box for more information.

LinkSprite is an American company that offers the modular Linker Kit [15]. The starting point for a user of this kit is to attach a board called the Baseboard to the Raspberry Pi. The board contains several connections for plugging in modules for taking measurements and for display that are also produced by LinkSprite. A significant advantage to this system is that the user can purchase just the modules that are needed instead of a universal board stuffed full of functions.

Conrad Electronic sells the Baseboard and the modules for the Linker Kit [16]. Together with eight connections, the Baseboard costs around $22. Each module costs between $6 and $16.

The PiFace Clock is a battery-buffered real-time clock that costs about $10 [11]. The PiFace company also offers an extension that has two relays, four buttons, eight LEDs, eight digital inputs, and eight open collector outputs. This board costs around $25 [12].

※ Price Increase NotificationThe TFT glass cell makers such as Tianma,Hanstar,BOE,Innolux has reduced or stopped the production of small and medium-sized tft glass cell from August-2020 due to the low profit and focus on the size of LCD TV,Tablet PC and Smart Phone .It results the glass cell price in the market is extremely high,and the same situation happens in IC industry.We deeply regret that rapidly rising costs for glass cell and controller IC necessitate our raising the price of tft display.We have made every attempt to avoid the increase, we could accept no profit from the beginning,but the price is going up frequently ,we"re now losing a lot of money. We have no choice if we want to survive. There is no certain answer for when the price would go back to the normal.We guess it will take at least 6 months until these glass cell and semiconductor manufacturing companies recover the production schedule.

I am sure that many people are trying to make their Raspis to display video to a nonHDMI/nonCOmposite LCD screen using its SPI port, so I hope this thread will help all of us seeking expertise with the SSD1289 controller.

LCD Screens with SSD1289 controller sold in eBay for less than 10$. They include a touch screen film and an SD card reader. For the video, the screen needs 16pins for 16bits of data + 4-5 controll pins.

The problem with pi, is that its SPI does not offer that many GPIOs to "talk" to the screen using parallel mode. Although SSD1289 controller supports serial mode/interface, the LCD screen does not offer this capability. But this guy here: http://spritesmods.com/?art=spitft&page=1 made a nice schematic using a counter and 3 shift registers to get a parallel interface out of a serial. He also gives a kernel patch to enable the ssd1289 driver to use his hardware implementation but unfortunately he made it for Carambola linux platform. His patches include an ssd1289 driver he made from scratch, KConfig patch for adding his shift-registers hardware support to kernel and modifications to the SPI module of carambola.

I do not own a Carambola and I am trying to build the RaspberryPi"s kernel using the patches Spritesmods.com provides after modifying them to match Raspberry"s sources.

Carambola"s patch includes patch for drivers/video/Kconfig and drivers/video/Makefile that I think can be applied easily to Raspi. Then the menuconfig will display an option to select native I/O or the shift registered hardware version.

The difficult part here is to enable the ssd1289 driver from the SPI module (arch/arm/mach-bcm2708/bcm2708.c). I have made some attempts to make SPI "see" the ssd1289 without success.

I used kernel compilation on the Raspi (built once on a usb stick and execute make after each time to only build the changed file) Crosscompiling made the ssd1289 driver to throw a compilation error (I can"t remember the error message).

(The reason for beeing so verbose, is that there is a lot of people reading these forums, including my self, and details is important to gain knowledge)

very nice and helpful entry. I am still at work (16:18 GR time), I will try to post my work on bcm2708.c when I get home later today. What I remember is that only seting the driver name is not enough, I had added includes and defines for the GPIO pins (mosi, miso, reset) (I tried to understand what the Carambola SPI driver did and move the logic to Raspberry).

Just a tip for anyone reading this post. If you compile locally (not cross-compiling) and you spend 6-9 hours to get your first build, backup your build. I had a lot of corrupted filesystem errors and had to re-write my SD card making the kernel build to be lost. I find it easy to mount a usb stick and make the build ON the stick.

I had added includes and defines for the GPIO pins (mosi, miso, reset) (I tried to understand what the Carambola SPI driver did and move the logic to Raspberry)

As I see it, this is not needed. The PI already has SPI available on the P1 header. And there is a SPI driver, but it has to be removed from the blacklist:

I couldn"t make the ssd driver built in the kernel, but only configured as a module. The module was loaded/ removed successfully however the screen did not came to life.

However, I connected 3 LEDs to MOSI, SCKL, CS0 of raspi set default framebuffer to dev/fb01 and tried to write something to it and the LEDs were blinking. I assume that commands are writen to SPI through the ssd1289 driver correctly.

My screen is slightly different than the one spritesmods uses. It does not provide a pinout diagram, it has the 40pin connector but does not for e.g. contains a BL_CNT as spritesmodes schema shows.

Anyway, I will try to debug the SPI and the schematic and will post when I have more news. I am trying to find a way to read the data sent from raspi"s SPI to check if the commands for screen init and command data are correct.

also it has a touchscreen...would that be a problem? i am looking forward to building a completely portable Raspberry Pi computer and have it with a minamal footprint that enables me to use it in my hands....

As Les said this cannot be done directly but in this post we try to do this using 4 ICs (a counter and three registers) that would take serial input from raspberry"s SPI and transforming to 24bits for the Screen. If you read my first post you will see another guy implemented that for another linux device the carambola.

So basically the display i posted as the link would work, as it is almost identical to the spritesmods.com one right?? Have you been able to display anything on your display? and would the touch module also work fine with the Pi?

Thats correct, the driver sends 3bytes of display data and one dummy byte (32 bits/32cycles) then the strobe, CS is going high (inactive). But on the next cycle it goes low (active). So CS would remain low (active) for 32 cycles (1 display command). The 4094s keep their state after the strobe so the screen reads it while CS is low.

I tried to debug the circuit by counting the voltages of the ICs / and connected 20 LEDs on the ICs data pins and I figured out that the 4094s does not change state while on SPI0 (/dev/fb1). If I change the data input of the circuit to SPI2 (/dev/spidev0.1) - this can be done by simply moving the circuit"s CS input from Raspberry"s CS0 to CS1 on its SPI- and send random data, the CIs respond, and change state (LEDs turn on / off).

It looks like that Raspi"s SPI resets the 4020 before it counts 32 cycles. It seems that an active low comes out of Raspi"s CS on each cycle (which resets the counter).

when you connect the raspi to the power SPI /CS goes HIGH this causes reset of 4020 and its Q5 goes LOW. It is not correct situation for the LCD. You can"t keep it"s /CS LOW forever.

When you write 4 bytes to SPI it"s /CS goes LOW then 4020 counts 32 cycles and its Q5 goes to HIGH then after some little time SPI"s /CS goes HIGH and it causes reset of 4020 so Q5 goes LOW again.

I totally agree with you, the schematic would be correct if /CS was active (low) for the moment the data was feeded on the screen - as you said that can be done using a inverter for Q5.

I wish I had an oscilloscope!!! By the way nice pics. Are they taken using real data from the ssd driver? Did you install the driver as this post explains and read these inputs? And if yes, why SPI is always low?

As I didnt have an inverted I tried to make two raspi GPIO pins to simulate an inverter: (if PIN1==low PIN2 set HIGH else PIN2 set LOW) but it did not work either. I assume raspberrypi wiringpi is not fast enough to simulate a real NOT gate.

I am afraid that the person that sent me the screen from china (ebay) sent screen with other chip than SSD1289. The only thing that I managed to display on screen was a full pale blue colour.

Also my screen does not have any pinout printing on it, it contains 40 pins without a pinout table or something. I will try to find and buy the screen sprite modes uses.

I"m a tad concerned by the trouble you"ve all been having. Obvious question, but has anyone tried setting the SPI pins on the PI to GPIO mode, and driving them directly (clock included), thus slowing the whole cycle down, and watching what happens.

My intention is to attempt to write a script to send some dummy data, at a 1 second clock speed. It should prove if the circuit is working correctly, and assuming there is no minimum clock speed on the SSD1289, it should load data to it as intended. If you"re right with the cs polarity being wrong, I"d have though it easy enough to prove by manually sending it the other way. Am I missing something?

3. In static int ssd1289_spi_write(struct ssd1289 *item, unsigned short value, unsigned int isdata) you should send 4 bytes not3 like in the SpriteMods"s patch.

4. In static void ssd1289_copy(struct ssd1289 *item, unsigned int index) you should use byte by byte sending not block sending. Tomorrow i"ll investigate why it is not working with block sending.

I have order a screen like the one you (and sprite mods) use as I suspect my screen is a bit different than yours. I will try your configuration when you upload your schematic with the old screen.

It is a bit different than the one valdodov uses (it has 40 pins, incudes an SD card slot, etc). Also my screen does not have the pinout printed on the back. I tried to contact the guy from ebay so he may could send me / hep me with the pinout but without success. I assumed that the pinout would be the same as SSD1289 datasheet or the 40pins schematics I ve found on the internet.

Anyway, I think there is something wrong with my display because I haven"t succeeded to display something on the screen, not even a corrupted desktop display as valdodov had on a previous post.
