Connecting RPi with RA8875

Post by Sebhastien »

Hey, I am relatively new to this and really wanted to jump into this, this weekend. Can anyone help me connect my 7 inch tft display to my Raspberry pi with the ra8875.

That's a moderately advanced project.

The RA8875 communicates with the data source through an SPI interface. It doesn't recognize video formats like HDMI or NTSP/PAL, so you'd have to write code that sends the appropriate data to it.

We have an Arduino library for the RA8875 (https://github.com/adafruit/Adafruit_RA8875), but no RasPi code.
