Janko,

I'm still waiting for any advice on your controller/TFT recommendations. Thanks.

mE doesn't have USB host libraries. You can use the Microchip libs to implement a thumbdrive file reader/writer - http://ww1.microchip.com/downloads/en/a ... 01145b.pdf

Of course you won't be able to compile this in MikroC

Janko,

The display will be used in automotive application. The display requirements are as follows: 320x240px, 3.5" diagonal, 262k color, resistive T/P.

Wow. I don't think you mE guys could be any more vague and unhelpful.

Malcom, Try setting up your project to use the R61526 display controller but substitute your custom init routine for TFT_Init_R61526. I believe that you're correct that the SSD1963 init function will not properly initialize the display. Looking at the register space the R61526 driver should be able ...

Malcolm_M,

Try using the R61526 driver with your custom init routine. I believe that the SSD1963, ILI9340, ILI9342, ILI9481, and R61526 all use the standard commands for a MIPI DCS Type1 interface.

It states on the VisualTFT website that "Most popular are 320x240 TFT displays running on HX8347-D controller. This display is found in many embedded devices world wide." Can you point me to any 3.5 320x240 displays that use this controller?

Malcom - Any update on this? Have you gotten the 320x240 display to work with mE libs?

Without any ETAs I'm forced to assume it will not be ready in time to be useful in my development.

When can mE users expect to have USB host functionality support? This is a pretty huge feature that's missing from an otherwise good package. It seems like you guys could at least port over the Microchip USB libs to mE to help support your customers.

Does anyone have some good suppliers for LCDs that use a supported controller? I'm looking for a 320x240 3.5" TFT w/TP. The only display that I have found that uses a supported controller is the WinStar. I've found some that use the SSD2119 and the FSA506 but I'm pretty positive most of the register...

Thanks for the reply guys. It's a shame they don't either make it easier to compile the demo Microchip code or include proper libs that can provide the same functionality that Microchip provides. We are currently very happy with the VisualTFT tools but need USB host functionality. Hopefully this won...

Hi Guys. I'm trying to gauge how simple it is to compile a project written for the C32 compilier in MikroC. Microchip has a demo project for using a USB flash drive with the PIC32 as an embedded host to browse and write files to a FAT32 filesystem. I would like to use the Microchip USB drivers in co...
