Getting Due to work with 2.8" Touchscreen TFT Breakout Board

Post by Sephiroth73003 »

Having trouble getting the 8-bit method of the TFT to work with due. I'm also a bit confused in the pin_magic header it lists due dig. pin layout to be 33-40 but in the example it lists it being 2-9 (not in order).

I've tried both layouts and haven't gotten anything but white screen. Trying to see if I'm supposed to do another modification for Due that I'm missing.

The Due definitely works with the 2.8" TFT. You do have to connect the 8 data lines to pins 33 through 40. The are connected in order, with 0 going to 33 and 7 going to 40.

Please post clear, detailed pictures of the breakout, showing your soldering.
